FLUID LEAKAGE
Check transfer surrounding area (oil seal, drain plug, and filler plug etc.) for fluid leakage.
Scheme 46
- Remove filler plug (1) and gasket. Then check that fluid is filled up from mounting hole for the filler plug. CAUTION: Never start engine while checking fluid level.
- Set a new gasket onto filler plug, and install it on transfer and tighten to the specified torque. Refer to " «EXPLODED VIEW»(ref-573625-S06612764422013082200000) ". CAUTION: Never reuse gasket.
Scheme 47
- Run the vehicle to warm up the transfer unit sufficiently.
- Stop the engine, and remove the drain plug (1) to drain the transfer fluid.
- Set a new gasket onto the drain plug, and install it on the transfer and tighten to the specified torque. Refer to " «EXPLODED VIEW»(ref-573625-S06612764422013082200000) ". CAUTION: Never reuse gasket.
Refilling
- Remove filler plug (1) and gasket. Then fill fluid up to mounting hole for the filler plug. Fluid and viscosity: Refer to " «FOR NORTH AMERICA: FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS»(ref-573583-S03417620982013082200000) ". Fluid capacity: Refer to " «GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-573625-S02561487902013082200000) ". CAUTION: Carefully fill the fluid. (Fill up for approximately 3 minutes.)
- Leave the vehicle for 3 minutes, and check the fluid level again.
- Set a new gasket onto filler plug, and install it on transfer and tighten to the specified torque. Refer to " «EXPLODED VIEW»(ref-573625-S06612764422013082200000) ". CAUTION: Never reuse gasket.
