I know the updated bulletin says use the newer synthetic oil but I find the auto oil is much better.Ps. 300TDI with 340k

This is an old thread so I'm not sure if this will get answered by Luke68 or not...but do you mean by this that your breathers had 100ml of brown oil in the hoses or the whole transfer case only had 100ml in it??? That sounds like a very low transfer case!!
I'm just looking in to how to check and change the diff and transfer case fluids hence the search of an old thread...oh also, when people talk about the axle fluids is this something different or is this one and the same as the diff oil? I'm a bit confused!
