    Can anyone provide a link to the service schedule on the 2020 4Runner Off Road Premium?

    I just hit 30k and want to keep after things. I think differential fluids are one item, but I want to be thorough.

    Thank you.

    My former dealership told me 30k for differentials. Didn't seem right and is why I am asking.

    You can download 2020 as well. But I bet it would be same as nothing changed in the powertrain department.

    Service advisors work on commission. Unless you regularly tow heavy and/or submerge your diffs in water, that seems excessive.

    BTW I just changed my rear diff, front diff and transfer case for the first time at 65k. All the old oil looked really good and the magnets on the drain plugs had small amounts of debris on them.
    For the record, I offroad a couple weekends a month.

    My rear diff was dark gray and had a few pinches of metal sludge on the magnet at 15k miles. Changed it because I had a subtle whine at around 70mph. It was a bit better when I changed it again at 40k. The front diff and transfer were still golden when I changed them for the first time at around 40k. I have taken mine through muddy water on occasion, so it gets pampered a bit.

    30k changes arent unreasonable, but 60k is probably completely fine for normal driving conditions.

    Diffs, Transfer case and Trans, 50K for normal driving. Drain and fill. 30K if you do off roading often or tow all the time. I recommend coolant drain and fill at 50K too.

    Yes, this is a daily driver that only goes into 4WD during inclement weather. And we haven't had much inclement weather in the last two years. Just because its recommended, doesn't mean its necessary.

    Good to put in in 4wd once a month or so, even for a few minutes.
