Can anyone tell me the lube capacity of the transfer case on a 03 AWD Vibe, and type of lube recommended. Thanks

You may want to check the rear differential seals and check the lube level also (changing it also maybe in order). Those seals are known issues and if leaking, add fluid and get them change. A new rear diff is $$$$.Edit: If they are leaking don't change the lube just add. Then when the seals are fixed then change the fluid.

Good point on checking the seals, and a good time to do the oil change. My seals are at the "weeping" stage....just showing signs of dampness on the dusty portions. New seals are on the dresser, and waiting for the tools to arrive from e-bay purchase. Salsa is right on, about the unit being very expensive to replace.
