blue or red transfer case fluid ??

[pastorscott]

Read an article that GM changed from the red dextron type to a new blue type that has better friction componants which means better Auto-4x4 engaugement. My burb is a 04 and being to lazy to go check Im asking if mine has the blue or red. If I still have the red Id liked to change to the blue as a recommneded upgrade. Any takers on this one ??

Autotrac=blue, the red will give you problems

What year did the blue fluid come out in stock

They have had it along time. My 99 came with red but the red to blue switch happened shortly after--late 99 or 2000? I had it changed under warranty.

My 00 came with blue. Changed it 2 times so far its pretty cheap fluid too

blue fluid is in the autotrack transfer case. this would be the 4 wheel drive that engages with a push button on yopur dash.

 

red dextron 3 atf is in the manual shift 4 wheel drive that is shifted by a lever on the floor.

 

Thats what the manual says. hope this helps.
