differential oil change?

I have a 2010 manual transmission with 21k miles on the car. Do I need a differential oil change? Can I do it my self? Which oil should I buy? I read that Red Line 75W90 GL-5 57904 differential fluid is good?

Look in the DIY section, all your answers and more are there! A great writeup

i did my G's diff oil change last year at 31k or 32k miles. the oil was fairly clean still. so it's really up to you. and yes, it's very easy to do. just need a 10mm hex socket, ratchet, and a $5 handpump. 2 new crush washers and the oil of your choice.
