[QUOTE="Dik, post: 205309, member: 2068"] Bixter. How many kilometers do you have? My transfer case "popped" around 250,000 kilometers [B][U]or about 100,000 of AUTO mode[/U][/B]. I learned this was an issue for 1999 1/2 (mine) models. IIRC the AUTO mode oil pump mount was moulded as part of the transfer case shell. When driving in AUTO mode [B][U][SIZE=5]a lot[/SIZE][/U][/B] the oil pump wears a hole in transfer case shell literally dumping the transfer case oil on the ground.The transfer case was replaced basically at my expense (off warranty but have friends at a certain dealership :Biggrin:). The newer transfer cases were re-designed to eliminate this problem. I do not know exactly what the new design included or which model year it started? Consider this before worrying about your TC; I was driving many many highway kilometers (typically over 2000 k/week) in AUTO mode and usually very fast. When I described my driving habits to the Service Manager he said, "well, that explains it". I am happy to say I don't drive like I used to. My driving goal/style since is to "not make bad decisions" ..... or as darn few as possible. ;) [/QUOTE]
