Transmisson fluids (how many quarts)

bossy1010 · Oct 12, 2010

Hi, i own a Jeep SRT8 2007 and i have close to 100 000 miles on it. Bougth it at 80 000 miles and i want to change the oil in the transfer case, axles and transmisson. I have to order the oil i need on line. So i want to know the exact amount of quarts i have to order. Here's what i know :

transfer case (NV 146) = 2 quarts
2 axles = 5 quarts
transmisson = ?????

For the transmisson, i know that i want to change the filter so is it considered and complete flush ??? If not, probably 6 quart is anough but it says 9.2 quart for a complete one !!!!

Help guy !!! The reason i am ordering this stuff online is in Canada, a quart of NV 146 goes for 81 $ each, the tranny fluids, 45 $ each and the axles fluids, 40 $ per quarts so ..... Thanks guy !!!

You won't be able to do a complete flush as there is fluid in the torque converter that you will not be able to drain. You shouldn't need more than 6 quarts.
You should be able to get the transmission fluid and diff fluid at a local parts store. The only thing you need from the dealer is the transfer case fluid.
Trans. fluid is ATF+4
Diff fluid is 75w-140

I would buy a MIller Trans dipstick and meaure the level when the Jeep is COLD and when the Jeep has been driven at least 30 minutes. Just so that you know where your level is at prior to changing the tranny fluid. I chenaged mine and I ended up meauring all the old oil I took out and meaured 4.1 qurats of Oil and I ended upo adding back in 4.3 quarts of Castrol AFT +4 fluid. MIne Miller stick read 100mm when it was COLD and 100mm when the Oil was at 189*F. I also used my Dash Hawk to read the tranny temps.
