When I was paying for dealer services they cost a lot, but they did alot and time is money.
My transfer case leaks from the back to back seals. It doesn't leak much round town , but a quick 110kmh drive down the freeway sees more oil on the specially placed "Disco transfer case leak catcher piece of cardboard on the garage floor".
Before I go on the next major trek I will be getting the leak sorted and at 291,000kms probably a full overhaul.
The cost is small compared to the inconvenience of a cranky wife, ruined trip and the possibility of the Disco on a flat bed.....

Mikey, that big bolt at the top of the righthand picture came loose on my Disco and I lost a lot of oil. My leak comes from above that bolt however the oil runs to the lowest point.Quote:

Hi I just done my defender overhaul gearbox, my transfer case leaking a lot so better if I do overhaul or just seals?
My D1 has been leaking from the intermediate shaft for years.
I have done heaps of trips in the high country with this.
I carry a litre of oil and a tom thumb pump and at the end of each day climb under and top up.
More often that not it does not need any oil.
When using as a daily driver I check it about every six weeks and it takes between 500mls to about 800 mls.
As I live in a rural area most driving is 100 kph.
X3 except I'd download RAVE :cool:Quote:

$2k for a transfer case leak is excessive in any circumstance but about right for removal of Transmisson and leak fixed.
