I was wondering if I was losing my mind...hehe, I probably am =)

I have an intermitant(sp) locking situation. I can turn the switch and sometimes they both lock and sometime only one locks and sometimes neither of them lock. Any ideas?? I was thinking maybe it is low fluid. Soooo then, how much fluid does it take to fill up a rear diff and tranny when changing the fluid. The Bentley is a little confusing and the owners manual only states what kind of fluid. Of course it could also be the vacuum switches too. Anyone????

TIA,

although they will not always go right in unless the gears are meshed right, so the car might have to be moved a few feet before they will engage or disengage. I don't know how much fluid (never bothered to measure), just fill them up to the bottom of the fill holes on level ground.

That is what I was thinking too. Hmmmmm. I LOVE to look for vacuum leaks. =)

Thanks for the reply

Well I drained and refilled the rear end and tranny and the differentials seem to be locking a little easier. I think that the car needs to be rolling to fully engage the locking mechanisms properly.

Just an update.
