I think this thread cursed me... I shit you not, Driving back to my office today from lunch and all of a sudden the car lurches as if the brakes were applied. My radio dies, and my speedo and tach gauges went to -0-. WHILE i'm driving... Then, DING! "4x4! AWD malfunction". Looks like its back in the shop for the X... this makes visit #4 in less than a year... I'm thinking that episode was my computer shutting my transfer case off. Hopefully I have the same issue as you with the transfer case fluid.
