hm idk ive heard of some who baby'd their car and still had tcase problems. Then i also heard of people driving normal and have 80k and still have no tcase problems.

I think its luck
And also maintenence
Your SUPPOSED to change tcase fluid every 5k-10k miles, but...yea

doesnt really happen, i guess as long as you do change it to some extent of that.

Ever since I got my new tcase I never let the fluid go more than 5K. Its not hard to do and fluid isn't expensive either.

doesn't the manual say 15K? Is there a reason why somebody should change it earlier than that if it's just a DD?

I guess if one is going to the track, then it might be wise to change it every track day.
