[QUOTE="norse, post: 7885972, member: 988"] The transfer box isn't a big job to remove,I had it swapped at a friends garage as he has a ramp but when the replacement one was slightly different I brought it back home and stripped it myself, there isn't a lot inside,mainly a clutch pack that is varied by a motor on the outside to alter the bias. we were getting large quotes for a transfer box but didn't want to spend too much on a car heading towards 200,000 miles,on 225 now with no problems but my first port of call would be tyres as they will be wider on the rear of a twin turbo car and MUST BE STAR MARKED!! and possibly an oil change for transfer box. Don't forget most mechanics are not aware of the tyre issue so will spend a lot of your money trying different fixes,I read of someone who bought a car from BMW main agent who swapped two tyres before they collected it only for it to make bad noises from underneath so took it back, The dealer swaped the transfer box then the rear diff and was still not right so the customer read of the tyre issue ,swapped them and was perfect!
