Default Servicing the AWD System

Has anyone serviced their own AWD system on the Pacifica? Myhusband would prefer to do this procedure himself, but we are unsure of the process for changing the AWD fluids. If you've done this yourself, please let me know. Thanks!!

Just wanted to ask again. Does anyone have diagrams of how these procedures are done? My husband wants to change the fluids for the AWD system, and we're not exactly sure what we need. I'm about to hit 60k miles, which is when this service is performed. Can anyone help? Basically I'm looking for suggestions on what types/brands of fluids I need, and any diagrams that you may have. Thanks!!

Jennifer,
Here are the fluid specs but I do not have any pics on the locations of these items. I'm still working on that myself. Haven't been under the car.
Good luck,
Bob
