Re: Auto transfer case maintenance

CS, this is a pretty straightforward process. I bought a pump for on a gallon jug at Advance Auto for $4. Go to the dealer and ask for 4 quarts of the 12375808 juice, it will run about $30. I ran the car up on ramps and crawled under and pulled out the bottom plug. The plugs are located on the lower back of the transfer case. Drain the TC into your oil change pan. I put 2 quarts of the new stuff into a clean antifreeze jug and put the pump on. I pulled the top plug and replaced the bottom plug. Stick the hose from the pump into the top hole in the TC, pump the juice in until it runs out the top and put the plug back in. On the ramps mine held almost exactly 2 quarts. Button everything up and drive around for a half hour or so. Go down some winding roads and into a parking lot or 2. Have the auto 4wd on and put it into and out of 4wd a few times in the parking lot. Don't really stress anything just work it out a little. Go back and drain out the fluid and replace it again. You are done. If you have blue in it when you pull the plug just change it once and take 2 quarts back to the dealer.
