I have EVO X '15 FE.
I have about 1500 miles on it so far. I'm debating whether to
do it at 2k or 3k miles. Going with full syn. 5w-30 .

Anyway does this help your car , if you change your rear diff fluid and transfercase at 3k miles? I read somewhere all the metal shavings you will see because it's new. Is this true? The early the better I guess? I know you will see some, but do most people change the diff and tranny fluid like 15k or 30k?

 

I would have changed the engine oil within the first 500 miles. Yes, it is beneficial to change the tcase, rear diff and trans early..

 

I change all my fluids along with spark plugs every single year during the months of Jan - March (with oil changes every 3/4 months)
Approx 1 to 1.5 years.

I usually put on 10-11k miles per year.

Unless you plan on driving 30k miles in 5 months then obviously do it sooner.
But 15-25k miles Is more than sufficient. But i Personally would not do it afterwards.
But it can never hurt to do things sooner
Unless your eating peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches daily to afford the GAS !
In that case, just do it as recommended by the manufacturer.
The car will drive perfectly fine at the intervals you posted for a daily non-track car.

 

Cool. Thanks y'all.
NYC EVOIX lol I am kinda poor to afford on gas.
17MPG sucks . It's a great car, any aftermarket part is quite expensive.
I heard you can tune it so you get lil better gas mileage.

Does anyone know mitsubishi part # for diff fluid rear and tranny oil?

Yea as stated above do it now. Keep that oil clear. If its got any black in it replace it.

Thats how i do my oil changes.

 

 

Thanks man. Definitely going to purchase this soon.
