I have a 2002 Camaro and a 2003 Silverado. I need to change out the diff fluid to get all the break in crud out. I can not do this my self so I'm wondering what is the best way to do this. I will probibly take the cars to the local quick lube because the dealer wants $75 labor and $50 for the fluid!!!
They can pump out the old fluid or take the diff cover off. What should I tell them to do? I think they would get more of the old fluid out by removing the cover? If they remove the diff cover do the bolts need to be torqued to a certain # of just tighten up good?
Also what would be a good diff fluid to use? Should I use the same fluid for both the Camaro and Silverado od do they need different kinds? I have read that synthetic diff fluid is best and what weight should I have them put in?
Thank you for the help!
