I was looking over the full service grid to determine how much my next visit is going to cost me. I did notice something; there is a service interval for transmission, transfer case and rear differential but there is nothing noted for the front.
So my question is when should the fluid be changed up front, or am I missing something extremely obvious?

Also how many hours of labour to change transmission, rear diff and transfer case?
Thanks,

The front diff shares the atf with the transmission.

Thank you that make sense

My 2001 RX had a seperate drain plug for the diff. Of course they did away with it on the 05.

Good to know! Thanks

So this means if I do drain and fill of trans fluid couple times, it would eventually change out for both transmission and front diff, right? I have 08 350.

I believe that 08 RX's have WS fluid that is suppose to be lifetime fluid

I am not sure that it is really 'life time'. Does it mean 100K or 200K or 30K. I believe many people still do drain and fill at interval of 60K. THis has been a legacy debate.
