Re: GM: No Dexron VI ATF in Transfer Case
Hi Everyone. Great article about the fluids!!
I have a question I hope someone can answer. I have a 2005 Nissan titan, 60K miles. I changed the transfer case fluid with DEXRON VI (Nissan calls for D Matic ATF or Dexron III). When I got the DEXRON VI, I read it was replacing DEXRON III.
I drove the truck for 67 miles with DEXRON VI in my transfer case. Then I found out that DEXRON VI is NOT to be used in manual transmissions or transfer cases. GM actually has warnings and bulletins posted saying that a failure will happen.
My question is, why would Dexron VI cause your transfer case to fail, when it is suppose to be better?
I drove with it for 67 miles, and then drained my transfer case and installed MOBIL 1 Synthetic ATF.
Do you think I did any damage to my transfer case?
What damage would the Dexron VI cause?
