Oil Change Of Awd Vehicles

[udayap]

Experts,

Is it required to change/inspect the level of oil of the AWD vehicle power transfer unit (PTU), E-coupling and Rear Axle Unit. The user manual of my vehicle does not say anything except the appropriate oil.

However, the service manual of the vehicle (korando) recommends

"Check and add at every

20,000 km (EU) or

15,000 km (General) of

driving or 12 months"

In vehicle service, even the agent does not check these oil levels. Is this the negligence of the Agent?

Thanks,

Car transmission servicing Local style,.... If it runs, Don't service it. Our blokes wouldn't find the fill point from the flux capacitor, even if they looked,..Then, they have no tools or no fluid to fill it with, So what's not broken gets left lone.which is easier, cheaper,

taking the local climate and average driving, I'd replace the stuff with an equivalent once a year,..

TT.

Do you really expect that from Micro agents? Haven't you read the reviews?

To answer your question...

yes....change it according to the service manual. The user manual would not necessarily tell you when to change it.

Most of the baby SUVs I have had, the manufacturer claims the rear diff, etc...to be non-service units; thus does not give change intervals etc in the user manual; however the technical bulletins, etc which the dealer has usually has a schedule for check (level) and change.
