What oil goes into the transfer case?
@LowRangeNick Жыл бұрын
@Fox Md for the isuzu d-max and mu-x it's 5w30 engine oil. Every manufacturer is different, if you have a different vehicle ask your local parts department.
@foxmd9410 Жыл бұрын
@@LowRangeNick Thanks for the reply Nick, I have a 2012 DMax and 5w30 all the way up to 20w50 is recommended in the manual which is the same recommendation as the engine oil. I'm running Penrite HPR Diesel 10 10w-40 semi synthetic as engine oil and I was wondering if this would be suitable for the transfer-case too, the manual says it ok but always good to get another opinion.

Thx Nick. More great info 👍 I run a Hilux, just checked the handbook, and like your Mux, all the manufacturer shows is “Inspect” every 2 years for the transfer case (& the auto) - interesting how they effectively treat them as a sealed unit. For me both those get serviced every 2 years regardless. Have a great and safe festive season. Catcha in the New year Cheers

Nick, never miss your uploads mate. Last 2 oil changes with Ryco filters, I have had leakage from the filter onto the ground. Filter has been hand tightened best I can. Buggered if i know
@LowRangeNick2 жыл бұрын
Hey Adz! I haven't had any issues with the RYCO filter seals leaking before. Maybe my mechanic hands can get the filter done up really tight haha! As long as you are cleaning the sealing surface before fitting the new oil filter and lubricating the new oil filter O ring before installing I dont see why they should leak. You could try a genuine oil filter and check the oil filter housing where the filter seals for any damage? Or buy a hoop style filter tool and just nip the filter up a little bit tighter. Hope that helps Adz!

As always great video Nick! Just a quick questions: I get a slight drip on the drive shaft coming out of the transfer case. Still there after changing the oil. Not sure if you've experienced it? I've read that its a common leak when you've got a lifted car. Just wondering what you think. Cheers
@LowRangeNick2 жыл бұрын
I have seen it on a few vehicles due to big lift, the tailshaft slips out of the seal a bit too far. You can get tailshaft spacers which will push it back in. It could also be as simple as just a leaky output shaft seal.

The complete automatic Transmission will hold around 10l of oil but when draining the oil you can't get the oil out of the torque converter so you can really only drain about 4l out at a time.
