allendorf82 That's typical. Jeeps tend to use Chrysler transmission fluid in many of their transfer cases. You may want to double check with Chevy on your year,make and model to see what they recommend. Hope this helps you out.
Always make sure that you can undo the fill plug before you drain it otherwise you won't be able to refill it
+Kendrick .minchew Great tip! Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com
You can with one of those plastic hand pumps, just like an outboard motor
I refilled my 05 yukon after 52 ounces leaked out. It holds 64 ounces total. I ran out of auto trak fluid after 26 ounces and made a mix of 50/50 merc3 atf to 10w30 motor oil for the rest. So far so good.
I always watch your vids to make sure I don’t miss any steps when working on my 04 Denali. Keep up the good work guys!
Angelo Cruz ..04 denali does not use trans fluid in trabsfer case..fluid ac-delco transfer case fluid...blue....18fts torque spec on plugs..
If the transfer case is making noise, then it will most likely need to be replaced at this point since the bearings were starved for fluid. If there is no noise and everything appears to be working correctly, you might be in the clear but you might have reduced the longevity of the transfer case as a whole by driving that long with that low of a fluid amount.
i have a 98 suburban 2500 says check 4x4 do you think its the actuator or the push buttons need to be replaced
Thank you. Just used your vid for my December 1995 K1500. I had a skid plate in the way. Everything else looked the same. :)
Thanks. Very helpful
another great video . I own a 2000 silverado and I'm fairly sure it's the same . Could you please tell me what type of transmission fluid to use for my TC? Having a hard time finding info . Thanks
I have a question. I Have a 2003 Silverado 4x4 with the 4x4 shifter in the floor. When I put the truck in 4x4 it engages but has a horrible popping and clicking sound coming from front end. I have recently replaced both cv axles and hubs. Do you guys think the problem is in the transfer case or have any ideas as what this could be?
Thank you. I'm going to give this a try. Your video was very helpful.
So i have a np246 transfer case in a 98-99 tahoe. Im being told i needs auto trak 2 fluid. Because it's a push button 4x4 amd auto 4x4?
any possibility you guys could do a video soon on your GMC Jimmy front sway bar bushings and end links
Very informative! Thanks for posting!
I would suggests making sure you can loosen the filler plug first then the drain plug..
Why is that? I’m still learning
It has a vent, does it matter?
You are so right! Always remove the fill plug first. Any standard trans or transfer unit with a screw in fill plug should be removed first. Otherwise if you drain first and then can't get the fill plug out, you're in a bad situation.
In case you can’t get the full plug out. If you drain all the fluid out and can’t get the full plug out your kinda screwed for filling it up. It can be done but it’s a real bitch.
If the fluid gets low will it whine in 4 wheel. I haven't had to drive with 4 wheel since last year. I engaged it and it whined. And took a while to go back it 2 wheel.
I have a 95 Tahoe 4x4 has a small lift. When engaged in 4 low it feels like it slips out of 4 wheel drive when accelerated and the front tire lights on the shifter turn off also hard to turn in 4 low. It engages I feel it could it be low on oil in the transfer case?
So just to verify? 2005 GMC Sierra 2500HD Duramax uses Dex III not Auto track II? Is this correct?
I read in multiple forums that the push button 4-wheel drive supposed to use Auto track II by AC Delco not atf
How would we go about filling it when it’s on the ground? I’ve also got wheel ramps.
so crazy story, it snowed and I used 4x4 and it started jumping and nicking, took out of 4x4 and it started a grinding noise, well I admit I have neglected the trans case, I removed the drain cap, less then a pint came out, I thought yep there the trans case, all gone lol. however I put 2 quarts of transfer case fluid in it and the noise went away and it works wonderful... thank you.
+Jimmie Wall Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Absolutely agree.
Take fill plug out 1st, Ck threads to make sure you can retrq same.
Real bummer to drain the fluid then find you can refill it.
+Richard C Thanks for checking us out!
Hey can u help.me ?
What i can do, in my case the plug for fill is stuck and i cant quit , so how can i refill the transfer? Its posible refill in the hole of the sensor ?
Sorry for my bad english
great videos! thank you so much
Per GM`s instrustions... teflon tape should be used for the drain plug to make a proper seal. And dont overtighten as its tapered
I have a 2000 Yukon. In every mode except 2HI and neutral my Yukon bucks and clunks like crazy. In 4HI it acts as if the engine is misfiring really bad (it's not) and I have to give it a lot of gas to keep moving. It's almost like the entire truck is being driven with the parking brake being applied and released very quickly. If I release my foot from the accelerator it comes to a stop quickly without the brakes being pushed at all. In 2HI, it's fine. Help please!
Awesome☆☆☆☆
It should be the same as the one shown in the video.
Great video, great instructions by a great master technician
Same fluid for 04 gmc lb7 diesels?
96 suburban, 4x4 lights dont glow as they should, 4x4 also never engages nor does 4wheel low. thoughts?
Cool simple videos. Thanks for sharing
+Lionel Esparza Thanks for watching. Keep us in mind in the future if you need parts for your vehicle. 1aauto.com
You can contact you local dealer for the fluid specs. Normally it is a Dex4 transmission fluid for the transfer case but contacting your local dealer will help determine what it is.
gmc yukon 2004 is same like this?
I have a 2001 silverado 5.3 4wd with buttons auto 4wd button on top I think its autotrac II blue right?
That's right. Valvoline sells Multi-Vehicle transfer case fluid which is easy to find. The notes will say that it's compatible with Auto-Trak II.
I have a '02 2500HD 4WD with the shifter on the floor. The manual calls for a different fluid depending on whether my x-fer case is "Manual" or "Automatic". Would it be safe to assume mine is the "manual" variety?
You may want to see if the actuator is getting power to it. If it is, the actuator might be bad. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
You may want to check to see if there's power to the transfer case actuator. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
OK thanks
I have a 96 k1500 and it won’t go into 4hi but it goes into lo just fine. It’s rather loud when transferring over. It was sitting for awhile. I don’t know how long. Bought it today.
+Luffy Feeces Roronoa You may want to change the transfer case fluid and look at the gears inside, also see if any metal shavings come out with the fluid which would indicate possible gear damage. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
anybody know where to get the clips that hold the conecting rod to the 4x4 handle and transfer unit??
+blkblky You may be able to get one from the dealer. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
I have a 1999 chevy K1500 5.7 which transfer case fluid is best for my truck
+Jennifer Falan Thank you for checking us out! I recommend you check your owner's manual for that information, as it can differ from model to model. 1aauto.com
Not all years of gm trucks, use tranny fluid in transfer case...04 and newer use specific fluid...blue in color( delco)...18 ft torque spec on plugs...remember there pipe plugs...no sealant needed on threads.
Man a lift must male it so much easier than laying on your back not seeing what the hell you're doing. Oil running all over you since you can't roll out of the way quick enough.
How do you reset the service 4wd light.
I just replaced the transfer case, and now the light is on
+Smokey Point Auto Sales Thank you for watching. We were unable to obtain a process for resetting this light, and we recommend having a specialty scanner obtain the 4WD code which is in the vehicle computer. 1aauto.com
My 4x4 wont come on should I change the transfer case or just the oil?
+ABc Films Thanks for watching! Unless the oil is really bad it wouldn't normally cause your 4x4 to not come on. We recommend having a trusted mechanic diagnose the vehicle if possible. 1aauto.com
Try replacing your actuator up front by the passenger tire. My 4x4 wouldn't engage before I replaced it myself for 35 bucks.
We'll keep this request in mind. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
What type of fluid do you recommend?
5w30 full synthetic is the best fluid to use
whats the fluid capacity?
About 2 qts
You would need to have to engine code pulled to see what's triggering the light. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
So, I discovered a leak in my transfer case. It was only left with about 1/2 quart of fluid in the case. I drove for about 7 hours at highway speeds in this condition before I could make the fix and add the proper amount of fluid again.
Do you think I did some irreversible harm to the gears in the case?
how many oil we need for chevy 2000 4x4 silverado 1500 LS
If there's a check engine light on you may want to have the code pulled. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
You could check the fluid level and also the actuator to see if there's power to it. You may also want to see if there are any vacuum leaks in the engine bay which might be contributing to the issue. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Man look how clean those southern trucks are, I wish mine was that mint lol.
+Exist Outdoors Thank you for your feedback!
you forgot to use thread sealant
I can’t take my fill and drain plugs off... any ideas?
+Caden kesselring Have you tried any bolt blast remover?
An older lady that's a friend of mine has a 2008 silverado 1500 and the service 4wd light came on and will not shift into 4wd.....noticed there was some fluid leaking on the drivers side where the axle comes out transfer....anything you recommend to check for? will low fluid set that light off and not let it go into 4wd???
Thank you for watching. It sounds like you need to replace the axle seal. It is the rubber seal around the axle where it goes into the Transfer case. Hope this helps!
1aauto.com 888-844-3393
1A Auto Parts is there a sensor in these trucks that would sense low fluid and cause it to not shift into 4wd?
Whiskey Tango Not to our knowledge. You could try to drain and replace the oil in the case, and see while you're draining the old oil out if there's any obvious damage that you can see, while replacing the fluid. Hope this helps you out.
I have a 1999 GMC Sierra 2500 Z71 4x4 with push button - can it use the same ATF as the 2002 or do I have to use the Auto-Trac II fluid?
You may want to check the owners manual or with the dealer to see what they recommend. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
***** You could start with the spark plugs, air filter and fuel filter, and an oil change if the car needs it.
Wat size fluid to refill case????
So the 02 takes atf? Everybody keeps talking about something different 🤔
I used AC Delco AutoTrak II transfer case fluid.
I thought the same thing, not sure why this 2002 would use atf? I thought it was supposed to be auto trak-II
buy a 7 dollar hand pump that screws right on to the bottle
😅
ok
Not a spot of rust! We're not so lucky!
