Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL AWD-TOR Fluid is a premium fully synthetic transmission oil engineered specifically for Torsen-type transfer cases in four-wheel drive systems. This fluid is the factory-approved choice for Volkswagen and Audi vehicles requiring SAF-AG4 + FM or VW/Audi G 055 145 A2 specifications.

This 1-liter bottle contains a high-quality synthetic formulation that includes a special 4% friction modifier blend. The oil flows smoothly even in freezing conditions (down to -54°C) while maintaining protective thickness at engine operating temperatures. It protects your transfer case gears from wear, corrosion, and foaming—keeping your all-wheel drive system responsive and reliable.

Key Benefits

• Low-temperature flow: Starts smoothly in winter without sluggish shifting
• Wear protection: Special friction modifiers reduce gear and bearing wear for extended component life
• Stable performance: Maintains consistent viscosity across temperature ranges, preventing slippage and ensuring predictable handling
• Seal compatibility: Neutral formula won't damage existing gaskets or seals during service
• Motorsport-grade: Suitable for both daily driving and performance use

When to Use / Replace?

Use this fluid exclusively in Torsen-type transfer cases found in VW and Audi all-wheel drive vehicles. Check your owner's manual or VIN-specific documentation for the exact fluid requirement—using the wrong specification can cause shifting problems, increased fuel consumption, and transmission damage.

Replacement interval: Transfer case fluid typically lasts 80,000–160,000 km (50,000–100,000 miles) depending on driving conditions. Severe off-road use or towing may require more frequent changes. Always consult your vehicle's service schedule.

Storage: Keep unopened bottles in a cool, dry place. Once opened, use within one service season to maintain performance properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this in my manual transmission?
A: No. This fluid is formulated exclusively for Torsen transfer cases in all-wheel drive systems. Manual transmissions require different specifications. Using the wrong fluid voids warranties and damages components.

Q: What happens if I use the wrong transmission fluid?
A: Misapplication causes shifting problems, increased fuel consumption, unwanted slip behavior, and potential transmission failure. Always verify your vehicle's OEM specification before purchasing.

Q: Is this synthetic oil better than conventional?
A: Yes. Synthetic formulations provide superior low-temperature flow, better wear protection, and longer service intervals. This fully synthetic blend ensures reliable performance in extreme cold and heat.
