Do you ever change your diff oil? If so, when, what kms, ect.

id say thats overkill. every time i change the oil, i am entertained to hear the noise, when u first re start the engine. oil pressure light is on for at least 5 seconds, sometimes alot longer. every month ur engine has to go thru that.... the only people that i know of that change their oil that often r cabs. each month or around 7500-10000 kays for them. isnt 3 months or 5000 kays the benchmark? every month is a deadset waste unless ur doing massive mileage like a cab..... |

I like to tag along with groups of motobikes that go for rides out in the country and you have to drive very very hard to keep up with them, i try and do it atleast once a week and i goto the track abit, so it's not really overkill |

yeah every 4 weeks is dumb esspessially all the oils. thats just wasting valuable resources and costing someone who isnt you money!!! and if you are worried about new oil start up oil pressure just remove a source to stop it from starting. crank it for like 5 seconds or so and then fix it so it will start!! alot more kind. |

and ppl wonder why world wide oil prices are so high seriously though if your using descent quality oils throughout your car (I spent around $150 on engine, diff, trans and brake fluids last time I serviced my car) I roughly follow say about 3months/5000kays for engine oil (espically it its turbocharged) and about 6 months for gearbox and diff oil (might as well do 'em together) and even that may be over kill.....just keep checking all fluids on a regular basis, thats the best guide of all! |
