Transmission and Diff. Fluid Change?
2002 1.8TQMS & 41K miles. Feel that the car isn't as smooth as it once was but has been maintained 'by the book' but with oil changes every 3500 miles. Should I change the other fluids, and, if so, what does everyone recommend?

Motul! You can use the same oil in both the manual gearbox and rear diff...
