I will be getting my transmission fluid changed with red line cocktail, rear diff and transfer case with OEM mitsu fluid.

Is there anything that I need to pay close attention to? Like is bleeding required?

I really dont want to have issues with my rear diff or transfer case after fluids are changed.

Some members' transfer case started to whine after the flush...

Please share your .02

 

 

Agreed with replacing those fluids at 15k miles; nothing to bleed, just drain/refill. Be sure both rear diff fluids are done.

 

Awesome!

What you mean by both rear diff fluids?

 

Diaqueen 90W LSD and Diamond ATF SP3, two separate drain and fill bolts. The transfer case uses just the Diaqueen 90W LSD.

 

Oh crap! I dont think I bought the Diamond ATF SP3 damn it... I didnt even know there were 2 rear dif fluids existed.

 

Is this the one you are talking about?

And all I need is a single qt right?

 

yes a single quart will be more than enough for the diff. it only takes like .4 of a quart.

if you're doing a full drain and fill of the acd/ayc fluid, it's 6 quarts and then bleeding is required.

 

I dont think acd/ayc fluid flush it required for 15k service, right?

 

Correct. Without looking at the manual, I'm not sure when it is required.

Not looking forward to doing it when the time comes since I'll likely use the dealership and hope do it right unless someone writes a program for bleeding the system.

 

Gotcha! Thanks for the info.

 

Never; it's not a service item. With that said, if I keep mine for a really long time I'll get it done at maybe 100k miles just for peace of mind

 

That's the stuff; you'll use about 2/3 of the bottle.

 

For reference:

 

Super! Thanks for the info. My local dealer has the ATF SP3 in stock so I will be picking up from there.
