It's a good idea to change all lubes after a short break-in period (say, 1000-1500 miles for motor oil, 10-20k for MT and diff).

But opinions on lubricants (and car audio) are like a**holes - everybody's got one.
But the manual says different. It's obviously the final word on everything and you can't possibly do better and anyone who says anything different is just some jackass on the internet.
