Dear Mark, thank you for reply! That was the first problem in my truck, after replace a new radiator, tranny fluid was in engine coolant and coolant was in ATF. After this problem I flush the engine and tranny. I pulled out the two pipes from the radiator and shorted each other with a rubber tube. Since them every 600 miles cost 1 liter ATF fluid.

No, there is a seal between them. If the seal fails fluid will migrate from the trans to the transfer case.

My 03 F150 would loose a litre every oil change into the transfer case. I would drain the over full t case and add to the tranny every time. Good way to flush the transfer case.

Thank you for advices! Today we check the transfer case and the oil was ok, till the higher screw. Till now, three car mechaniker took a look to my car and no any result. The last said me, i am dreaming or drinking...
Another question: since coolant was in tranny, the shifting is not the same like before. The mechanikers said me, i should overhaul the tranny. Where can i order the cheapest parts for my truck? I must calculate the price of USA and plus in Europe 12 % customs, plus 27 % VAT in Hungary and the shipping. It takes together 100% of the price in USA.
Thank you for the help!
