on the 530i, how often is the rear diff fluid change and is it covered for free?(during the first 3year/36000mile free maintenance)

was just wondering about that this afternoon... it was sunny and relatively warm, so I was changing the rear diff fluid in my other car. have not done it in over a year and half.

Not covered under maintenance plan as it’s not due until like 60k miles minimum, if there’s even a documented service interval for it.

what if I only drive 5000 miles per year? does that mean I won't have to change it until 10+ years later? or is there a maximum time internal?

Thanks!

Probably never
