Replying to: stevedebi (Aug 26, 2008 11:35 am) wow, 15k or 30k on the differential? I guess I should assume it's never been changed in the previous 69k then? Even the service guy at Honda said 60k, but another mechanic said wait til 100k. good thing on the key-figured it wasn't a big deal, but you never know.... Thanks for replying!

I started noticing a noise from the rear at about 15K; they changed the fluid and the noise went away. If your vehicle is performing fine and there is no noise or other problem with the rear wheels, maybe yours is different and only needs the 60K (I would definitely go with the Honda recommendations).
