All-Wheel Drive
Transfer Case
When to Check and Change
Lubricant
The transfer case is filled with oil
during manufacture, which then
does not require changing. It is not
necessary to regularly check the
transfer case fluid unless there is a
leak suspected or an unusual noise
is heard. A fluid loss could indicate
a problem. It is recommended to
have the transfer case serviced at
your dealer/retailer by trained
service technicians.
