There is no concrete answer. Different vehicles have different needs. For instance, an off-road vehicle may need a differential fluid change as often as every 30,000 miles.

Some manufactures consider the differential lubed for life and others recommend that it be changed at a set mileage like 100,000 miles. Refer to your owner's manual for when or if yours should be changed.
