[QUOTE="14 BlackScrew RR, post: 1208377, member: 24873"] Changing Fluids are in some cases overrated. A good example is the Radiator Fluid (Antifreeze) If the PH is withing spec,and there is no visible sign of contamination, then there is absolutely no need to change it. If the fluid in the Transmission and diff isn't discolored or smelly and is within the specified mileage, the same applied. The next time you pass or is passed by an 18 wheeler, the fluids in the Tranny and Diff ( if using Synthetic) is change every 500,000 to 750,000 miles as per OEM spec. Our attention should instead be directed to the "BELTS and HOSES" as they are the ones that will fail before the fluids. [/QUOTE]
