So looked but maybe i'm just blind. couldn't really find what i was looking for.

I've hit a 100k and am wondering if there is anything other that the rear diff oil i should service. done the ball joints and started the one-piece driveline phenom. Anything of any major significance i should be lookin at?

thanks!

06 Q-cab 4x4 lb 6spd man, no real mods other than exhaust and intake.

 

lets see hopefully youve been changing your tranny fluid about every 45k or so if you tow a lot. transfer case and both differentials need to be changed

 

In the next 20k miles or so would be a good idea to get the valves adjusted, and maybe take a look at your turbo for any signs of ware.

 

on a manual trans? really....? well then i'm F'D. i 'll do that right away if thats the case.

ya i check the intake side of the turbo every oil change, its just easier to remove the intake elbow to get at the oil filter.

 

i do since i seem to eat trannies. especially since the g56 uses auto trannie fluid which i dont think is as good as gear oil and breaks down a lot faster. i am gona hit 100k probably by next week to its at 97k rite now . gonna change the tranny fluid tomorrow along with the oil headed to albequerque nm sunday

 

good'enough! i'll get right on that. how many quarts and is it and is the transfer case apart of that or separate?

 

transfer case is seperate think 6 on the tranny not sure last time i had a garage service it gonna have to look in the manual. takes atf-4

 

Its six just had it done the other day.

 

Are you really supposed to have the valves adjusted after 120K?

 

Valves 150K.


The transfer case takes around 3 qts it's real easy to do I did mine at 50K, auto transmission at around 35K, diffs every around every 20K, CI4+ oil at 10K, fuel filter every 10K.

 

It's "Albuquerque".

 

ABQ for us dummies.

 

I changed all oils at 100,000 miles even though the diffs had been serviced, and so had the tranny, several times. You should be due for front brakes if you haven't done them yet. It seems the belt will go for a long time yet but I am thinking of doing mine one of these days. Currently at 168,000 miles. The unit bearings might be the next front end fix you'll need, might be a good time to get a Dynatrac kit ready. And the front axle u-joints seem to be toast at about this mileage, mine were.

I'm embarrased to say that I haven't changed the coolant yet either. Hmmm, maybe this weekend. It's sitting in the garage and keeps tripping me. I hope the pump isn't weeping. Oh, and those heater doors. Sheesh.

 

You need to read the book on your truck!!It will tell you all that should had been done and what need done now!!

 

you mean the one that tells you to change the oil every 7500

sorry i don't really follow that...... plus i'm not an idiot i just want to hear what USEFUL things you all have to say that the book does not..... thanks though...........
