Additional Notes

  • The Lexus GX 460 URJ150 transfer case holds 1.4 liters of fluid across all listed configurations, for both the Canadian and American markets, covering model years from 2009 onward.
  • A 1.4-liter transfer case capacity is a service fill figure, meaning it reflects the amount of fluid the unit holds during a standard drain-and-fill procedure rather than a full overhaul or disassembly refill.
  • The Canadian-market URJ150 specifies a transfer case fluid check interval of 16,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, applying to both the 2009-2021 and 2021-started model ranges.
  • The USA-market URJ150 covering 2009-2021 carries a normal-use check interval of 30,000 miles or 36 months, which is a notably longer interval compared to the Canadian specification for the same generation.
  • Under severe use conditions, the USA-market URJ150 for 2009-2021 shortens the check interval to 15,000 miles or 18 months and adds a fluid change requirement at 30,000 miles or 36 months, a change requirement absent from the normal-use schedule for that same generation.
  • For the USA-market URJ150 starting from 2021, the normal-use schedule sets a check interval of 15,000 miles or 18 months, which is half the mileage interval specified for the 2009-2021 normal-use schedule in the same market.
  • The severe-use schedule for the USA-market URJ150 starting from 2021 specifies only a fluid change at 30,000 miles or 36 months, with no separate check interval listed for that condition in that generation.
