Magnoman Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I have Purchased a 2002 Rx300 a few months ago w/50k on it. Runs & rides like silk ! I have been working on cars for 35 years doing most of my own work. I wanted to change the Transfer case oil & rear diff oil to Syn Amsoil. wondering if this is ok, if anyone has had any problems after the change? I went to one of those oil change places and wanted them to do it just to save the pain of it. They siad i should not change over that the seals could start to leak????? I have use syns In most of my other cars and never had a prob but they just spooked me a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TunedRX300 Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Go to somewhere else because they are wrong, if you have a leak, fix the leak. I have Mobil 1 Synthetic and changed myself, now that you have 35 years of DIY experience, it should not be hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX300 Steven Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I replaced the transmission, rear diff, and front transfer case (or diff depending on what you call it) all to Amsoil. I got at least 2 mpg improvement and I think it shifts better and overall runs better. This is a very easy process to do yourself and makes you feel better knowing you saved all that money.
