My Nissan Navara (D22 utility), at 10,000km (10.5 years ago), I had Mobil 1 ATF put in the Tx Case.
Nissan reckoned Dex, or 80W were appropriate, I went front to back synthetic and chose the ATF option at the time.
Mechanic that I used was (allegedly) checking it at 10,000km services up until 60,000km, when I took over (warranty expired), and I found that the fill plug was too tight, and burred from a half inch drive being used rather than the right square drive....no biggie, nothing leaked, I wasn't worried.
When the right drive was obtained, the oil was low, low on the fill hole, finger didn't reach it.
Drained it, and instead of 2 and a bit litres, got around a half litre, of nearly purple, quite thick, but not smelling burned fluid.
anyone had the ATF boil out of their transfer case and not have evidence of it ?
