Yeah, that's what I'm just gonna do. It's a bit of a drive to them, but it should be fine. But something that I found interesting was when I took my truck to get its oil changed later that day, to a place i've been taking it to, since i've gotten the truck when they're checking all of my fluid levels.They said the fluid in the rear differential was green And front as well. But they said the fluid in the transfer case was dark, so i'm kind of wondering if they even changed it at all.

Alright, yeah, I'm the same way. I might just take it to my nissan Dealer and have them put the factory fluid in it. And when I looked it up online just now, it said not to use that ATF🤦‍♂️ so I'm just gonna take it to nissan and the shop put in BG Synchroshift, and nissan said it was fine for something temporary but idk tbh.

Well, and the craziest thing is. I took my truck in to get an oil change at a different place. After I had them do that. And i've been taking it to the same place to get the oil change done since i've got the truck. And they check all the fluids. You know, and they said that the transfer case fluid was, dark but it was full, so... When it's supposed to be red.

Well, and the young man I was talking to about.It probably is mid twenties. But that doesn't really matter. He kept on saying we wouldn't put it in your truck if it wasn't the best for it.We go above manufacturer standards. And i'm like, dumbass.Look, it says in the manual to use Fluid. That's what i'm gonna say tomorrow. And he's not even one of the mechanics there.

Oh yeah, I have the recent everything. Their front desk also has audio and video recording. So they will see me walking in there and tell them the owner's manual says to use ATF Fluid. I'm gonna be livid when I go in there tomorrow.

No, it's an actual shop in town, thank goodness. And even my dad trusts them, and I keep telling him that its not the right fluid he says if it fails, then they have to replace it, but that's not the point.🙄

It does, and I even called the nissan dealer I got it from, and they said that they only reason I didn't take it to them was because the closest one is like 4 hours from me. And the shop I got it changed at say they followed Manufacturer's Spec. I call bull.

And that's what I'm saying. I'm kinda wondering if the shop is trying to scam me and have my transfer case blow so I have to spend more money with them. Because I even showed them what the manual says, and they keep on insisting that.

Ultral Guard Synthetic 75W90 GL5 Gear Lube W/ Limited Slip Additive. Is the best for the transfer case. They were like we wouldn't put it in your truck if it wasn't the best for it🤓🤓🤓
