What is the transfer case fluid all about?

The transfer case is a special gear box found in four-wheel and all-wheel-drive vehicles. It sends drive power from the engine to the front and rear axles. In all-wheel-drive vehicles, the transfer case helps to shift power from one axle to another, depending upon traction conditions. Lubricant fluid in the transfer case helps to keep its gears cool and turning smoothly. Replacing this fluid at appropriate intervals can help prevent premature wear and damage caused by contaminated or broken-down lubricant.

Keep in mind:

If the transfer case fluid is low, the entire transfer case should be inspected for leaks.

How it's done:

Check the condition of the fluid
Drain the fluid if it is dirty or brown in color
Fill the new fluid
Test drive vehicle and check for leaks

Our recommendation:

Transfer case fluid should be replaced at least every 30,000 miles. You should schedule this maintenance for your vehicle, and anytime the transfer case is inspected, the transfer case fluid should be checked.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the transfer case fluid?

Transfer case fluid is dirty
Car is unable to change gears

How important is this service?

The transfer case is a gear box that is unique to four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles. The transfer case is responsible for sending power from the engine to both the front and the rear axles, and shifting power from one to the other depending on the conditions of the road. Transfer case fluid is responsible for keeping the components of the transfer case well lubricated. When this fluid leaks out or becomes contaminated, it is no longer able to act as a lubricant, and severe damage can be caused to the transfer case.

Dodge Ram 3500 V8-5.9L - Pre-purchase Car Inspection - Hayward, California

Chris would have rec'd 5 stars from me because he was skilled, helpful, friendly, etc AND he phoned me 15 minutes before he was due, to say he was running late. He estimated he could arrive in 1 hour or maybe in 1 hour and 15 minutes. I told him this was not good enough, especially since a 3rd person had already showed up, per agreement for the appt. Also I had rented a car to drive 200 miles tound trip to attend our appointment. I told him I'd call him back as to what I wanted to do - wait or cancel. Long story short, after the YM scheduler and I and Chris exchanged phone calls, Chris showed up 45 minutes late for the original appointment but 15 minutes before his revised estimated earliest arrival. Once he arrived, everything went fine. I might/ might not follow up on telling YM that I would require a full or partial refund. Chris was GREAT BUT LATE. Would I hire him again?
