If the old fluid doesn't smell nasty it was toast!
Probably a stupid question but I bought my 2001 4Runner last year and it has 315k miles and I have no idea if it has ever had the diff fluid changed, should I change it or just leave the fluid it has since it probably has never been changed I’m just thinking from that rule of thumb if it ain’t broke don’t fix it
“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” doesn’t apply to service life of fluids. That’s like running engine oil for 50,000 miles because the engine hasn’t blown up.
A rear diff unit cost over 2k in parts and another 2k in labor. Fluid change will cost $75. Pick your poison.
There is an original owner of a '96 Tacoma 4x4 4cyl in Virginia that has over 400k miles on his rig and claims to have NEVER changed any gearbox or MT fluid EVER
@@JAY-gv4eq other day i changed my rear diff fluid of my 2008 AWD Volvo which has 160k miles and that fluid came out, not like a fluid but like some sort of silver-ish sludge that looked like a paste. Now, imagine the scenario with the one youre mentionning
