Has anyone heard different on the differential change at 2k miles? Any one done it or heard it is required? (on the 2019+). Thanks,

no need, just yearly or 10k miles interval services.

Yes, no need for any sort of oil / fluids change until the first annual unless you reach the miles limit earlier

Not really related to a break in but always ensure the engine is up to full operating temps before doing anything other than taking it easy.

I am a believer in break-in, especially on high performance drivetrains. The tolerances are much tighter. As for the diff service, I was told it is required at the B service. However, anytime I break-in a motorcycle engine, I exchange the transmission fluid. Probably doesn’t relate and I’m just sticking to the manual for the G63.

Ditto. Why chance it? It is such a short time relative to the life of the engine so better safe than sorry. I just hit the one year mark on my Porsche 911 and I kept it below 4k rpms for the first 1500 miles, varied the speed and gears (manual tranny), etc. and I did not burn any oil and it runs fine. Only time will tell whether that meant anything in the long run but again, why not adhere to what is recommended.
