Transfer Case Service at McGrath Acura

Be Proactive in Scheduling Service

Even if there are no immediate symptoms of a problem in the transfer case, it needs to be checked to assure preemptive maintenance can be conducted at a convenient time instead of having to make more intensive repairs which could have been avoided. When the oil is drained, it is visually inspected for wear. If it is polluted with condensation, the gasket has been compromised, if it is exceptionally dirty there is likely another cause that needs to be diagnosed, if it is exceptionally low there might be a leak in the system.

Symptoms Worsen With Time

Any of the previously described problems will eventually cause the car to break down, leaving the driver stranded on the roadside. Such a situation is never safe with today's traffic as not all roads are designed for pedestrians, and there is also the potential for breaking down in a high crime area. Important to remember as well, is that even before the car gets to the point of complete failure it's not going to run efficiently, get bad power transfer, compromised handling, and poor gas mileage.

There's simply no good reason to accept unsafe driving with compromised mechanical systems or to risk the possibility of causing more expensive damage to other parts, knowing the initial problem is never going to get better and eventually have to be taken care of regardless of whether it's a good time to go without the car while it's in the shop.
