It has been 2 days since I did the transfer case/differential fluid changeout AND I also added .5 liters of Mobil 1 ATF to the oil...
GUESS WHAT
No more ticking in idle (when in Park)...not a peep.
It still has its little start up issues, but as long as I keep the accelerator a little bit down on start up, no issues.
I have also noticed that I can feel a little more torque.

When I started up my RX on the way to the track tonight, I got another surprise...no screwy startups.
So what did I do...not the ATF trick again...I actually added an oil additive that I had used before, www.oilextreme.com, which some of you may remember from one of my pictures from my oil change last year when I was still using Mobil 1. Only about $10 USD and I let it sit for 6 hours before starting. Track times were well back to normal.
