I have about 13k on my 05 evo, I heard that I suppose to change the transmission and drive train fluids at around 8k or so, I'm not so sure, I don't autocross my car at all, just a lil boost here and there. is there any maintenance I need to do at this point, thanks

nice find, so there's no such thing as change transmission and drive train fluids every 8k?

 

nope

 

cool,thx

 

hmmm... got almost 14k on mine. Now the question is, Redline or Diaqueen?

 

i think i'll use Diaqueen, even road race says redline

 

maybe redline when the car is lil older, what do you think?

 

Depending on how your vehicle gets used or how particular you are about maintence you may wish to do this service sooner but the normal service interval for this work is 30,000 miles.

 

It is advised to change your drivetrain fluids within a couple thousand miles of ownership. Changing them after that depends upon how you drive the car. $120 for labor from RRE. Holy Crap! Do yourself a favor and do all fluid changes yourself. You will have peace of mind and a thicker wallet in the end.

 

ya DIY Diaqueen from www.mitsubishiparts.net $35.00 for about 3-4 changes worth, redline/BG tranny less then $30.00, gear oil pump $10-15.00, oil change while your at it 5 qts 10w30 mobile 1 from wal mart $19.99. At most for a first timer 1.5 hours. total $100.00 and enough diaqueen for a few more changes. I will never pay anyone labor......

 

that would suck changing that stuff that often. it's a pita to do it every now and again

 

is it hard to change the transfer case fluid? All Ive ever done is oil change
