seanton Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 hey, My RDA and PTU fluids are due for a change (on a '09 SXT) and I can't find any info on how to do it or how much fluid I need. The only thing I know for sure is I need to use 75W-90 Oil. Has anybody ever done this before? I've looked in the service manual and nothing comes up. Thanks, Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Sorry, not familiar with "RDA" and "PTU". If this has to do with differentials, I'm sure there is a drain plug and a fill plug just like any other differential/transfer case, manual transmission, etc. Remove the drain plug and fill plug, drain it, reinstall the drain plug and fill it back up till it runs out the fill hole. 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Sean seanton, With respect to the Power Transfer Unit (PTU), use only MOPAR Gear & Axle Lubricant SAE 75W-90 with a capacity of 0.8 metric liters. The Rear Driveline Module or RDA will also take the same lubricant as the PTU however capacity is 0.6 metric liters. ***Keep in mind these are nominal refill capacities and amounts will vary slightly depending on your refill procedure.*** If you aren't sure about performing this service yourself, do not hesitate to get your Journey to your local Dodge service facility. 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, those 'mericans don't seem to have any trouble figuring out how to buy ammo to reload their 9mm guns... LOL Peace. jkeaton and Summer Solstice 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
