    You are fine to use 80/90 gear oil in the transfer case if you have manual hubs. Auto hubs need ATF to be used. Somethings definitely amiss though if the oil is black already.

    Well I used the ATF and it has manual locking hubs but surely that wouldn’t be causing this would it ?

    Yes and no. Mine was issued with Manual hubs but requires ATF.

    Wasn't it something to do with the front driveline turning while the oil was cold?

    Strange. ATf was only used because of the lower viscosity, and thicker oils were tricking the auto hubs into thinking the transfer case was in 4wd.

    A bit of deja vu. The link to the other forum gives a good explanation about ATF too.
