I've got two cars for both of my kids, and I take care of them. I was double-checking everything when I changed all the fluids.
My oldest one has a camry 2014 se with 140000 miles
I recently changed
Brake fluid
Coolant
Engine oil
Transmission fluid is due.( i bought it from my cousin he said he changed at recommend warranty )
I took it for an inspection mechanic said I have to change front differential fluid ..does. my 2014 cmary se has front diff and how often should I change them mechanic quoted me $319.00 for both
2014 sonata gls has 80k miles
I recently changed engine oil
I'm gonna do the brake fluid, coolant, and brake pads all at once.
I changed the transmission fluid at 60k, and I'm gonna do it again at 80k. My daughter drives between Oklahoma and Texas, she's a OU student, and she comes home every weekend, so she's racking up a thousand miles a month.
I do have a question does my sonata has front diff and does it have to be changed ?
So, I put those Duralast Plus pads on her car, and remember changing them at 40k miles, and the mechanic says they're at 60%. I am gonna swap them out next year. Any recomendation for carbon ceramic ones? I know they're pricey, but they'll last longer than the car and her university years,
Thank you.
Sorry for the long message
Of course those cars have front differentials, they're front drive. However the differential is integral with the transaxle and lubricated by the transmission fluid.
said I have to change front differential fluid .
does my sonata has front diff
sounds a bit scammy
You don't have differential fluid. Front-wheel-drive vehicles have a "transaxle" , which is a portmanteau of "transmission" and "axle". (differential is just part of the axle). The transaxle does the job of transmission and differential all in one assembly, and it's all one fluid: transmission fluid. This should be described in the owner's manual.
changed the transmission fluid at 60k, and I'm gonna do it again at 80k.
20k interval is overkill. 40k-50k is fine.
