...floor. This picture is taken from the front. The four dirt spots are where the tires usually rest and you see the oil spots in the center in relation to the tires. This is where I think it's coming from. Transfer case or transmission? Ugh, I'm so disappointed. ANY WISDOM OR ADVICE WELCOME!

I think I had a similar/same issue yesterday (Sunday) in the hunter valley NSW, doing around 30-40km/hr on a dirt road, massive bang and turning thudding noise. My Ineos did have the transfer case recall and it was replaced at 15k service. Tow truck to Gosford dealer, waiting to see what they say.

Not yet. I am waiting on my transfer case skid plate that is due later this week and then I will install both at the same time this weekend!

This image is from a right hand drive manual - you have a left hand drive vehicle and operation (lock / unlock) is inverted.

Done. Thanks for the tip.

...be heatsoaked enough that a cooler will become ineffective. Not beeing Ineos specific I was always curious how hot full gear driven transfer cases with like, LR 110 and Land Cruiser designs (very similar to Tremec's design) get while heavy towing and operating with massively increased GVM...

Transfer case: Engine:

...with the fan - runs off the main circuit (blue cap) and radiator. It's the one closest to the engine. In front of that is the auxiliary radiator (black cap) for the intercooler, etc. In front of that is what appears to be the transmission cooler. The lower left bumper has the transfer case...

Did you get this resolved?

From the manual… Not sure exactly what you are looking for beyond this?

@Onefin Is pic 908 the trailing arm? I saw trailing arm skid plates on one of the sites (spp or revel? don't recall) and was thinking they'd be good to have. I'm definitely getting fuel tank, cross member, transfer case and transmission coverage.

Hi ClarkKent Great shots and so clean! I’ve been following this situation with interest and happened to zoom in on your third photo which I am attaching. I’m really hoping I’m seeing something that isn’t there but from some knowledge of materials and castings I don’t like the look of the flange...

...Assuming we are talking about a part-time 4WD vehicle, the front axle and driveshaft can be mechanically disconnected from the transfer case. Typically the transfer case is also left in Neutral, and transmission - in Park (if automatic) or Neutral (if manual). In this case, when the jeep in...

The transfer case bolt is ok but there is a need to neutralize the gearbox and this is where the maneuver requires a special hook

I have been quoted the same at the ACT local agent. They did say they were changing the oil in the transfer case, but still seems at the high end.

Isn't there a transfer case neutral bolt under the car that requires a spanner. A t/case in neutral should allow a car to move even if main trans is in park

Car was at the driveline shop yesterday for R&D. Hopefully we will have a shaft within 2-3 weeks, adapters are being made for the diff and transfer case. 🤙🤙

It is only true for the driveshafts with one double cardan and one-single. The driveshafts with two true CV joints can be as misaligned as you want.

As to why others change the vehicle and risk warranty denial? That’s a cost benefit analysis. Maybe they look at few thousand for a transfer case as a pittance compared to wasting 90g and 5 years of their life waiting for a warranty to expire, prior to making the truck what they wanted in the...

Hi when taking delivery of our Grenadier a couple of weeks ago ,we could not test the transfer case gear level as the infamous pin had come out The dealer accepted that it was a fault and the gear lever would be replaced Dealer says they have now received the £BOWDEN cable" ? Is this where...

I understand it to be a case of unlock the transfer case and then the front and rear axle locks immediately disengage. However it takes a little while (a few minutes one time for my Grenadier) to register.

...of interest to the people like to learn about the mechanical aspect of a vehicle. While I was looking for information on Iveco Daily transfer cases and through an image search and FB suggestions I came across "Reul Parts smart +Strong Customs" from Belgium. This is a company probably better...

I had the situation wehere I couldnt move into Low rage at all. Eventually service confirmed a problem with the Transfer Case and replaced the whole thing. The whine from the TC is now gone and it is easier to put in Low abut still very stiff. I have also picked up a terrible vibration at...

That operation is I thought that was an acceptable practice, and often needed when towing.

Hi Krabby, I received an email from Rival yesterday that the Transfer Case Skid Plate order window is now open. Ordered 1 for $349.00. DaBull

I think you got it right. I found Jean's earlier post about neutral positions. The trans has a neutral lever on the LHS. The transfer case has a neutral bolt on the RHS. You would not have misidentified that. My apologies for the added confusion. So if you have operated the neutral bolt as per...

I still prefer the transfer case and gear box somewhere in the middle, for instance "in" the safari roofs. I hope you are an Ineos employee, or designer working for them :love:, because your proposal is really very nice!

I recently had my transfer case replaced by the dealer as part of a recall. The new transfer case had a leak in the same spot. A new seal was put in by the dealer and I have had no further problems.

Appreciate the details. I spoke to Ineos UK and they were pretty positive about ‘if it doesn’t feel right, get it to the dealer’, so it’s on the list for the first dealer visit whenever that happens.

I have also noticed. This does not appear to have occurred in any INEOS testing cycle. As you write, no problems permanently up to 135/140 km/h Unfortunately, minutes-long journeys at higher speeds are not possible. It's just something you have to come to terms with now. The car would have...

Front and rear diff in the 1st service? What is that - like 12K miles? Seems way too early doesn’t it?

What is common all the failures have been at the transfer case cv joint. Possibly not a direct drive shaft or cv fault but a driveline angle issue that is compounded by normal movements of the engine and transmission mounting and front axle. The other issue is the slip joint is not free enough...

Hi, have you checked the space between Gear Box and Transfer Case for Debris? You can't see it. I crawled under the car and tried to find something with my hand. After removing a small rock the vibration was gone.

Thank you Stu, my order is in! Bill

I'm stealing that controller off the first one I see! I'm kidding but it's a nice looking and functional improvement. We need a movie star to total one so we can get at the parts.

Yes. I’d happily buy a machined metal transfer case shifter. 🙂

Today, June 12th, received email from Rival that they have the Rival Aluminum Engine and Transmission Skid Plate order book open. I ordered one. ETA to their warehouse is 7/31/2024. DaBull https://www.rival4x4usa.com/products/rival-aluminum-engine-skid-plate-ineos-grenadier?variant=43526111363241

I just received word from Rival that they have opened their pre-order books for Aluminum skid plate protection for the transfer case and engine: Transfer Case ($299) Engine ($349) For what you get, and compared to the competition, I believe these prices to be fair. I've tossed my hat in for...

Thanks for the quick reply. Taking her in Monday. Seems to be common?

...as instructed, but no grinding, no issues at all. Keep in mind this a really advanced, gear driven and cooled ( will always be noisy) transfer case the likes of which is not something seen before in an production vehicle. Its very bespoke, but should be durable as hell. If you want to see...

It might have been moved by one of my kids, I took it for a run and it has rectified itself. Thanks.

Rival had a preorder sale a few weeks ago https://www.rival4x4usa.com/products/rival-aluminum-transfer-case-skid-plate-ineos-grenadier?variant=43526127976617 I was lucky enough to get in before it closed the window.

Thank you for taking the trouble to full in the knowledge gaps. (y)

what oil did you use for your diffs?

Seems fairly inline (presuming notably higher labor rates in CA than the East coast), feel free to add it to this thread - https://www.theineosforum.com/threads/grenadier-servicing-price-usa.12416460/

I just scheduled my tow hitch install, windshield seal fix and transfer case shifter assembly replacement for Friday. (Elliott Bay)

...shaft and rear drive shaft. The vehicle will be free to move. Than the dealership can deal with your issues and bolt your shafts back in. Just remove the screws at the diffs and hang the shafts with a bungee. Easiest way without screwing around with the transfer case bolt that seems to be an...

Excluding the accident - amazing.

...we were not there to destroy the vehicle. Sadly we were backed into which not only damaged the left front bumper but also took out the transfer case cooler and trim around the headlight. After speaking with the dealership late last week they have found a couple things. First the non-start was...

Transfer case leak after 2000 miles, no off-road use. Repair pending.

The SPP set has a skid for the rear trailing arm, fronts are exposed.

I may be wrong, but don't you have to tighten that bolt sending it up into the transmission and pushing the parking pin out of position?

Still in the shop. I was told they had a T-case on the way. Going on week 3, still no transfer case and they don’t know when they will have one.

Thanks for the detailed reply and I’m very pleased to be wrong! 😮‍💨

For the vehicles that have shaft failure. Has the oil and oil quality been checked in the transfer case and front diff. When the shafts have failures it would be a good idea to drain the oil in the t/case in a clean clear container for inspection and maybe a sample for analysis. Replace the...

He had a transfer case leak, and is awaiting parts

How can you afford not to order this?

Ordered and the cost of shipping to the UK is £15. Looking forward to the credit back....... :)

Hi nmoeder, I would have it aligned as there is a possibility the alignment may be putting vibrations into the suspension at higher speeds. Just one of many things to check. DaBull

I’ve not done this on the Gren but it’s not a difficult task. In this case I had a warning showing, was on the service interval and wanted to change out transfer/axle oils, all while keeping warranty. Headed to Dilawri Ineos in Mississauga (Toronto) for the work. Harneet, Shub, Ray and the...

Sadly it seems these days with any new vehicle, electronically dumbed down or not, you need to carry a tech tool to reset error codes as much as you need a 10mm socket. 🤷‍♂️ Do we know if anyone has found a reliable aftermarket one for the grenny yet?

Re your transfer case … I’ve informed my Agent of difficulties I’ve had disengaging low range (after long sessions of low range driving) but they haven’t mentioned any transfer case recalls. Do you know if your recall was based on your VIN?

...Ranger, Amarok, Volve XC90, X5, VW Transporter are valid - none of these vehicles are live axled and in some cases don't even have a transfer case. None of these vehicles are as competent off road as the Grenadier and some aren't even four-wheel drives, they are SUV's. The...

Sounds like the issues are getting sorted, which is fantastic news! Hope that your rig gets back on the road sooner rather than later. And hope the insurance covers that body damage.

No, not intercoolers. One is a secondary cooling circuit for engine I believe and one is a transfer case cooler. I would be reluctant to remove at least the transfer case one as it was added during the testing phase because they has some issues with transfer case temps if I recall the story...

is the transfer case in 4H unlocked?

Doing longer Autobahn high speed driving regularly. Always with a close eye on xfer case temp. It's easy to exceed 100°C if you're not careful. For myself I limit speed to a max of 90°C. Which is approximately max 140km/h during summer days. I never exceeded the 115°C limit, didn't know there...

I waited 5 weeks if that means anything. In CT

Had the same problem today. One day of ownership in, and the plastic clip popped out allowing the cable to drag on the prop shaft. Sounded horrible, like grinding coming from the transfer case. Glad it wasn’t more serious. 3 zip ties and I’m back driving again, hope they hold.

This is what my hoses looked like (from a front transfer case driveline seal leak)

...lights on dash and message in message center. Now in Limp Mode. I searched and didnt find anything. Looking undernearth, looks like transfer case has a small leak. It drives around 6 mph in limp mode, no noises. I guess Ill have it towed to the dealer. 2024 Trialmaster, 9500 miles, B58 Gas...

That’s fair enough if you’re prepared to take the financial risk. But I just don’t get it myself.

Engaged the neutral bolt in anticipation of a tow(more about that later. Anyway it looks like I engaged it without having the transfer case in neutral. Once I backed out and put everything back in the proper position, the gear box will not go into forward or reverse. I have gone back through the...

That's of course right, but that does not solve the problem: You can enlarge the distance between the diff or the xfer case and the CV joints to reduce the required length of the shaft, but at the penalty of further increasing the operating angle of the joints. Take a piece of paper and draw it...

Using a double cardan at the transfer case/box end requires aiming the differential pinion directly at the transfer case. This would require a "cut & turn" procedure for the front axle housing wherein the inner yokes (C or inner knuckle) are cut free, the pinion is rotated and aimed at the...

Agreed, my money would be on a stiff slip jointt.

Bahaha. That’s why the whole carbon footprint thing is BS. They need to include Scope 3 emissions. Btw I think the transfer case is made in Mexico. Close enough.

So the update I received yesterday was that the transfer case is leaking. They have reported it to Ineos Engineering at the mother ship to see how to proceed. Replace the whole thing, a gasket, or whatever. One thing that makes me nervous is that you guys all said this is not likely the transfer...

This makes me very happy. It seems, barring accident damage and a couple of new wheels the only negative was the crap state of roads and flying stones. Looking forward to the final debrief, and not all the speculation. If it does indeed turn out to be more or less how you have described, we have...

Thanks for sharing all the edits. Was all that covered by warranty if I may ask?

To solve the issue, I drilled a hole in the heat shield and used a quarter inch industrial wire tie to connect the cable to the heat shield. I've had it off-road since then, sorry for the dirt in the picture, and it's held fine. You might want to zoom in a little bit to see the black wire tie.

Tremec is the Mexico City based transfer case supplier. I didn’t know that they bought a portion of Borg-Warner’s transmission division. “TREMEC purchased BorgWarner’s North American manual transmission business sector in 1996”. https://www.tremec.com/noticias_detalle/ineos-grenadier/...

I noticed a fluid leak last night while installing skid plates. Fluid had collected on the cooler lines leading to/from the transfer case... Couldn't find fluid above the soft part of the line, leads me to believe a problem with the line itself?

Please see what @IslandFalconer said Also please refer to @Trialmaster as well as the other responses. Also, due to a “pin falling out” you had to have the entire transfer case shifter replaced.

TRANSFER CASE CABLES I have a solution to properly secure my transfer case cables (issue identified by @Logsplitter). At this time it is not publicly available and it is not INEOS approved. It is however a fine piece of engineering, made from aluminium and it does not rely on the tree style...

Driver's side (LHD) is for the transfer case specifically

Did you have this done at 12,000 miles? Are the differentials spec'd for servive at 12,000 miles? Should and must mean different things to me (said the guy that changed his oil at 800 miles after break in and will do it again at 2,500 miles).

Are you sure about this? Not very likely on a newly designed transfer case as helical gears (angled teeth) have been used for ages, at least for the high range gearing.

That's so interesting - I never imagined they would make a left and right hand drive transfer case. In that case you are spot on!

...on lifted vehicles, is a redesign of the entire front axle so the pinion angle is much higher and pointing more directly at the transfer case output flange easing the angle of the entire front driveshaft. To do that will require more engineering work from Carraro and Magna and all sorts of...

Thanks! I will pass this info along to Elliott Bay.
