Isnt 136668111776 before 136968105387
Im confused

It's all clear as mud isn't it?

136968105387 (vehicles after this do not require extra fluid per f5fstop)
136668111776 (fourfourto's vin & f5fstop said does NOT require, June 05)
136368237108 (mine does require extra fluid per T-case sticker, Jan 06)

f5fstop,

Thanks for getting the extra fluid info striaght. That is what I did when I filled it up.

Was adding the extra fluid an afterthought by GM, or could they not get the fill plug up higher?

Maybe I'm adding confusion to this subject.

Apparently, I was informed wrong when the dealer upgrade bulletin was issued, that the additional fluid would not be required on vehicles after the VIN I posted. It appears the additional fluid is required, but rather than issue a bulletin, there is a note added to the t/case informing the tech to add the additional fluid.
So, it appears that all t/cases, at least in 2006, require the extra fluid. I will check on this tomorrow with engineering.

HAL: As for the manual, the electronic manual I access online is updated daily with new or revised information. For the engineer to update the information is very easy, put in a request, and a day or two later it is available to the dealers via the GM electronic service information website.
If I find out tomorrow that all cases required the extra fluid, I will notify the people in charge of service manuals and have them make the change to the fill procedure.
