Several Nissan models have been designed with 4-wheel-drive capabilities. This means that they have a transfer case that transfers engine power from the transmission to all four of your wheels. The transfer case is important because it makes your vehicle a 4-wheel drive. The transfer case is very complex with moving parts and fluid. The transfer case also acts as a differential that adjusts for the difference in rotation between wheels when turning. As you can see, your transfer case is vital but is often considered ‘out of sight and out of mind’ until you notice that there is a problem.
There are several common signs that you have a transfer case problem:
Transfer case fluid needs to be replaced about every 30,000 miles; however, it is possible that driving factors like heavy hauling can cause problems with your transfer case components or the transfer case fluid.
