I don’t remember seeing anything in the Bentley about changing the fluid, 
but there was a small insert included in my ’71 Owners manual.  It looked 
like a late addition, a sticker glued to the first page.  It said they 
recommended changing it every 18,000 miles or every year!

I always wondered what made that so urgent… maybe a failure pattern they 
sought to nip in the bid?

I don’t think it is mentioned in earlier or later Owners Manuals, either.
