Transmission Or Differential

How much does it really cost to repair the differential on my Tribute? The mechanic says it's the transmission and the Mazda dealer thinks that the fluid needs to be changed......What's going on? I just paid this car off and now I've got problems.

not knowing the mileage, change the fluid but make sure they do it. if you feel it slip or it doesn't feel right change it but beware. after changing the fluid it can fail later on but if ignored it can get worse. if its causing you issues change it and cross your fingers. its a slippery slope. if its never been serviced and its high mileage than don't do it (unless its causing issues) if it has been kept up with than most likely it won't harm anything and your good. i would go for it. if it does fail than get a new/used one, rebuilt ones are just as expensive and aren't guaranteed. differentials don't set you back too badly. automatic transmissions are worse. Good Luck
