Default Question regarding 30k LSD service...

My car will be needing this being it has 30,300 miles currently & I plan to pick up a jug of fluid from my local Lexus dealer or order from Sewell possibly. Is it easy to change out the fluids ? Flush out the existing fluids ? I attempted doing a search but nothing came up so sorry if this has been covered in the past. Thanks

It's easy as long as you have a pump to pump in the new fluid. Make sure you can remove your fill plug and remove your drain plug. Once your diff is drained, install the drain plug and fill with new fluid until the oil spills out the fill hole. If you purchase diff fluid like motul, they come with a tube to fill your diff.

My manual states that this service is at 60k miles. Does yours say it's at 30k miles?
