Oh my gosh! Sorry I didn't realised you used the FUCHS in the TC... I don't know the viscosity of the Nv247 / Mobil424, but I'm certain that it would be much thinner than 75W-140 as the TC is chain-driven.

So yes you're right, your problems are most-likely in the transfer-case.

I'm not familiar with the CRDs or WJ/WGs; but I don't think there has been a 2.7L CRD with QDII, as the 2.7 was only in the WJ/WG (I think?) and certainly QDII is only in the WH/WK.

You should change the TC oil ASAP, and probably leave a complaint with your mechanic if they recommended that oil.

I had the driveline clunk noise on my WJ so decided to do all the fluids first.

I found that Mobilfluid 424 in 1 Litre bottles is carried as standard in Sydney 7/Eleven Mobil petrol stations. $13.80 each. Quicker and easier than buying off ECL etc. and only $2 more per litre if you factor in freight..

Much cheaper than the $43.63 per quart (946ml) for Mopar NP247 Transfer Case from Chrysler/Jeep.

Fixed my problem - which was such a loud clunk/grind that I thought my transfer case was shot. Now it runs smoother than i can ever remember..

Mobil 424 available as mobilfluid 424 at 7/11 for $16

just wondering whats all the differences from all the Mobil 424 fluids, some say hydraulic fluid some don't its confused me is there a specific 424 that we need to use? pictures below is the one they sell at my local 7/11 is that the correct fluid?

I think its just a label change. I can find only 1 424 on the Mobil site.
The spec's on the rear label are the same as my bottle.

This is what my bottle looks like.

ill keep that in mind then clarky as I've seen a few different bottles of 424 sold at the same place just didn't know which one people were using, ill end up getting the bottle with the label your one has in that case just to be safe!
