After getting my transfer case oil changed on my 2015 Cayenne diesel I was inspired to change the differential fluid. They have updated the part number on the differential oil from 000 043 205 30 to 000 043 305 04. Pelican is selling the older part number. My dealer told me they can be mixed.

Yeah, right. I'd love to believe that, and it could very well be totally true. But if I had a penny for every time a dealer told me something that wasn't accurate... well, I wouldn't be complaining about dealer service prices with all those pennies...

Any chance of a factory confirmation on the ability to mix old/new... and a clarification on what's different?

From my dealer:
"Yes, the supersession is a direct one. Meaning they can be interchanged. "


I don't know what is different about the new fluid. It is apparent there are issues with the transfer cases perhaps this is a first step.

At what miles are you guys changing your:
transfer case
trans
front / rear diffs

I'm at 47k now, thinking of doing at 50...

I'm doing the diffs and transfer case every 30K. For the transmission I was thinking about 60K. No basis in fact other than my transfer case fluid was dark at 30K.
