4WD Maintenance

[alwayz_yummy]

on A/T equipped vehicles, ATF rin ang linalagay sa transfer case... so siguro kung M/T equipped vehicles, its manual transmission fluid... to check your transfer case, open the fill plug and dip your finger... if color red or something close to red, then its ATF.... if yellowish or brownish then it is manual transmission fluid... the transfer case kasi is the one that receives power from the transmission and it sends it your rear differential and front differential, whatever is chosen....

my liteace is a 4wd automatic, ang ATF is good only for the transmission itself. yung t-case, iba, lubricant, independent of the transmission..

pero eto sa full-fledge/traditional 4wds.. ewan lang sa full-time 4wd, lalo na yung mga bago..baka integrated na sa tranny ang t-case na yun..(like most subarus,evos, vr4s, cSUVs)

meron na sa manual yun.

in 4wd...

if matic replace the atf...

for the transfer case normally 75-80w90 oil

rear diff normally the same

but for honda crv's na gen 1, the rear differential requires atf also. if you put gear oil sira yan for sure.

on my suv, the transfer case is mated just at the rear of the transmission... both are filled individually.... but it is using ATF din similar to the transmission. and this is according to the owner's manual and haynes manual that i bought... so perhaps different brands have different specifications.....

It's best to check the owner's manual. Some manual transmissions also call for ATF. Wow! hehehe.

and my M/T isuzu trooper uses motor oil on their transmission and transfer case.

[afrasay]

yun sa transfercase ng patrol atf ang ginagamit. same viscosity ng recomended ng manufacturer. smooth shifting on the fyl from 2hi to 4hi unlike before nun ordinary gear oil lang ang gamit. at the most every 2 yrs ang palit ko.

Nasa manual ang schedule. Atleast chech the level once in a while. Kung sa casa ka nagpapaayos they check it but kung sa gas station, you have to tell them.

for trannys that need atf like fluid we have royal purple synchromax... it's excellent gear oil.... noticable yung difference in smoothness on most of the cars we've used it on.
