Hello again. I have a 1986 Volvo 240 DL sedan with automati transmission and 187,000 miles. I had the trans rebuilt in 2002 bu have otherwise had no major trouble. My question is that every time get an oil change at my quick lube place, the technician pressures m to have my differential fluid changed (along with other services lik radiator, brake fluid flush, etc.) Now I have always had all of th other maintance services at regular intervals since 2000 when purchased the vehicle with 133,000 miles on the odometer. But I hav never had a differential fluid changed nor have I had any othe differential work performed. So I have no idea when or if differentia service has ever been performed on the car. However the car is handlin fine and I notice no indications that the transaxel/differential i having any trouble (no unusual noises, etc) So my question is should have the differential service performed, or is the differential designe to be maintenance free? Are there any risks to having the differentia service, ie could it/will it cause more problems then I had to begi with (none yet)? Or should I definitly have the service. Any thought on this item would be greatly appreciated as I know very little abou the differential components of my car
