Gearbox Service

What does Gearbox Fluid do?
Gearbox refers to differentials, final drives, manual transmissions and transfer cases. Each of these gearbox types requires a specific fluid for proper lubrication. Gearbox fluid protects these drive train parts and components against damage from heat and contaminants by lubricating gears, shafts and bearings.

What are the benefits of a Gearbox Fluid Service?
Like any fluid, Gearbox Fluid breaks down over time and loses its ability to lubricate and protect vital drive train components. Oil Can Henry’s Gearbox Fluid Service includes draining of the old fluid, inspection of the drain plugs, and a fill with new Gearbox Fluid.

When should I have a Gearbox Fluid Service performed?
Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for recommended service intervals.

Front Differential Service

The front differential is part of your vehicle’s drivetrain, a collection of components that enable your vehicle to move by transferring power from the engine to the wheels.

Located between a vehicle’s front wheels, the front differential transfers power from the engine to the wheels. It enables the wheels to turn at different speeds, which is needed when you’re turning a corner.

Found on all four-wheel drive vehicles and most all-wheel drive vehicles, the transfer case is part of your vehicle’s drivetrain, a collection of components that enable your vehicle to move by transferring power from the engine to the wheels. 

The transfer case is a gearbox that distributes power from the transmission to the froth and rear differentials.

Manual Transmission Service

The manual transmission uses gear ratios controlled by the driver to apply torque, which, in turn, controls the vehicle’s speed.

Air Conditioning Service

Does it feel a bit warmer inside your vehicle? Does it take longer for your windows to de-fog? Your air conditioning system may be in need of a recharge.

What does the air conditioning system do?
The air conditioning system removes heat and humidity from the cabin to help the interior of your vehicle feel cooler and de-fog windows. Refrigerant can slowly leak out through the service ports or rubber hoses, resulting in low refrigerant levels and gradually higher air temperature coming from your air conditioning system. This rise in temperature occurs over a long period of time and is so gradual that you may not even notice it.

Why should I have an Air Conditioning Recharge performed?
Oil Can Henry’s Air Conditioning Recharge service helps restore the performance of your vehicle’s air conditioning system by removing moisture (which can damage air conditioning components) and replacing lost refrigerant. In fact, recharging your system can lower the air conditioning temperature by as much as 30º F.

Oil Can Henry’s Air Conditioning Recharge service also includes a leak test and visual inspection of the system.

When should I have an Air Conditioning Recharge performed?
We recommend that you recharge your vehicle’s air conditioning system every two years to restore lost refrigerant and remove moisture from the system.
