So...my wife's 2013 Honda CR-V has about 18,000 miles on it. We bought it new 3 years ago and bought a warranty program that covered all scheduled maintenance.
Getting the State inspection today, they told her that the differential fluid was dirty, and should be changed...to the tune of $140.00. They told her it needs to be changed like oil does.
Now, I am all with changing transmission and differential fluids at regular intervals...like every 30,000 miles...but doesn't it seem well too early, and if this is a scheduled item, would you not think it was covered under the extended warranty?
Not an expert but I would not change at only 18k miles.
