Post subject: | To V-Drive fluid change or not to change. |
The Boat: 2015 A-22 w/5.7l The Situation: When I was at my local dealer picking up a part a few days ago, he tried to sell me on a v-drive fluid service for about $150. When I got home, I read the manual and everything I saw indicated that as long as the fluid level is within spec, it does not require a fluid change. The Question: Does it need to be changed or is he just trying to take my $150? |

Same here. As long as the fluid level is good and the fluid is clear my dealer won't touch it. |

Thank you! I'll check the level/color and go from there. |

In a high hours boat it’s considered to be an annual service you perform yourself easily and cheaply , much cheaper than a more frequent oil change interval |
