Why Choose Our Transfer Case Fluid Change Service?
Your vehicle’s transfer case is a crucial component of its four-wheel drive system, responsible for distributing power from the transmission to both the front and rear axles. Over time, the fluid in the transfer case can become contaminated with dirt, debris, and metal particles, compromising its ability to lubricate and protect vital components.
Regular transfer case fluid changes are essential for maintaining the integrity of your vehicle’s four-wheel drive system and preventing costly repairs down the road. Our service involves draining the old, contaminated fluid from the transfer case and replacing it with fresh, clean fluid that meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications.
At Art of Maintenance, we specialize in providing expert auto maintenance services to keep your vehicle’s four-wheel drive system operating smoothly and efficiently, providing you with the traction and control you need to tackle any terrain with confidence.
Conveniently located in Portland, Oregon, Art of Maintenance is your trusted partner for all your automotive maintenance and repair needs. Our team of experienced technicians is dedicated to providing top-notch service and ensuring your complete satisfaction with every visit. Remember, regular maintenance is key to keeping your vehicle running smoothly and avoiding costly repairs down the road. Don’t neglect your transfer case – invest in a fluid change today and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your vehicle is in top condition.
Signs that it's Time for Transfer Case Fluid Change
Are you noticing unusual noises or difficulty shifting gears in your four-wheel drive vehicle? It might be time for a transfer case fluid change.
Increased vibration/roughness in four-wheel drive mode
Insufficient or degraded transfer case fluid can result in increased friction and wear on internal components, leading to abnormal vibrations and rough operation.
Grinding or unusual noises
This can be caused by contaminated or degraded transfer case fluid, leading to increased friction and wear on internal components.
Difficulty when shifting into four-wheel drive mode
Old or insufficient fluid may not provide proper lubrication, resulting in difficulty shifting and potential damage to gears and bearings.
Leaking fluid under vehicle
Leaks may indicate damaged seals or gaskets within the transfer case, leading to fluid loss and inadequate lubrication of critical components.

Quick, honest and reliable
The service was great Kevin was very helpful and James was friendly. Will be back
This is the only place I bring both of my cars to have work done, they are honest about what needs to be done and I also get a copy of the machine read out sent to my phone. The manager Kevin is knowledgeable has always taken care of any issue questions I may have and explains it so I understand unlike other place I tried in the past where they would talk down to me like I’m just another dumb female bothering them. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to have any kind of work done from a simple oil change to major work.
They were super helpful in fixing a flat on my car. Went above and beyond and didn’t charge at the end. Super grateful for their professional service.
Transmission service.
3/24/22 update: Thermostat replacement. Quoted over $900. Quote included replacing everything associated with thermostat like housing, sensor, ect. because I didn’t want to pay the $160 diagnostic to find out exactly what part wasn’t working. Did feel taken advantage of and did not leave my vehicle for the repair.
My experience with Art of Maintenance was one of the best I’ve ever had in working with a mechanic! Kevin was honest, straight forward and got my car in and out for a great price and GREAT work. He understood what I needed and did just that. I will be using them again and recommending them to anyone who needs a good, honest and reliable shop. Thanks again guys!
The general manager was very helpful and polite. My brakes felt so good on the ride home and I definatly plan on going back for the rest of my car troubles. Super fast and friendly, great communication.
You know your car never breaks down on a good day but when my car broke down in Portland these guys helped make a bad day better true professionals they helped Comfort my wife and my dog. we were traveling out of town . We tried other shops in town and no one could take care of us the same day. I would have no problem using these guys again or recommending them thank you again to Kevin and James and the team at Art of Maintenance
Got me in and out the door with repairs to my Saab. Friendly service and reassurance offered as I drove my car to the shop. My new mechanic!
They know what they are doing. They know how to do it right
Clean fast shop with a nifty SMS-based order and invoice system that lets you check which services you do or don’t want and authorize them without a phone call. Was able to book a morning appointment in 3 biz days and get my oil change/AC recharge done in 2 hours, car purred like a happy kitten with a tuna treat afterwards.
Got me in and out quick! Great shop!
