The transfer case isn't lifetime fluid. When it has degraded to a certain point, a warning comes up advising to change it (fluid out of spec). If you change it ahead of that, fine, but the computer is measuring the fluid and seeing that it is still fine (based on the fluid properties, not the colour). It is condition based servicing, not preset change intervals.
