Did the VAQ fluid this morning. Really simple to do only hinderance was having retrofitted both the front exhaust tunnel cover and the full belly pan, both had to be removed, otherwise really straight forward. Also having access to a full lift makes this an easy one. Doing it on your back probably wouldn't be that challenging either. I used aluminum foil the cover the sway bar and subframe to keep it clean. Should have kept it in place when filling because it will leak out of the fill hole onto the same place. Oops
I didn't pull the pump, at only 29k miles I didn't feel the need to. I'll do it at 60k though. Color was the same as the stuff going in, only a little stinky like normal diff fluid but nothing like I've experienced before on 80K+ mile trans or rear diffs.
