Ok, Newbie question.

1. How often do we change tranny, TC and Diff. Fluids?
2. Is it all easy as changing engine oil?
Thanks in advance

i say it depends on how often you beat on your car...if your drive the sh** out of it all the time then id do it about every 6k but thats just me..and yes its easy as an oil change just a bigger size bolt....the front tcase fill bolt is kind of a pain to get too cause of the down pipe.

OEM, that is it, the end. Everything else will net you a little performance at the expense of Longevity. I have had a DSM and two Evo's and each were over 100K and never an issue, OEM, the TC especially those things get HOT and they need that thick viscous liquid to handle the heat.

Search. This is a well covered topic.

Secondly, How-To is not the correct forum for this thread. Moved to FAQ.
