    I had symptom #5. I was getting the ABS, Brake and 4x4 dash faults. ISTA was saying Calibration Faulty and the case released 4 drops of fluid. Going to reverse was locking the wheels. I replaced the Transfer Case with 65,000 mile used unit and everything now works perfectly. Root cause of fluid loss was I went 20,000 miles past the maintenance interval, living in 118F Summer temperatures. The DTF fluid evaporation came out of the top vent pipe. 2010 BMW X6M.

    sometimes flushing the TC (transfer case) fluid with OEM fluid will make TC to run smoother. You may notice some metal savings in the old fluid but this is the stretched internal chain of the TC rubbing against the sidewall of the case and does not require a rebuild of the TC assembly.

    I am in the the E83 Owners Group Too - That's how I found your video. Great video, very informative. You may not be a professional RUclipsr as you put it, but you are a professional! You actually have content instead of click bait.
    I am getting intermittent ABS/Brake and 4x4 light. It's usually @ startup or immediately when shifting into gear. Other times it doesn't do it at all and everything working properly with no lights. I am getting multiple codes from transfer case malfunction to servo motor current measurement faulty. I have inspected the internal actuator gear and it is good. Wondering your thoughts on whether it would be a bad actuator motor or the control module. When it's a cold start I get the issue, after driving the car for a little bit and turning car on/off the lights clear and no issues. I'm stumped and don't want to throw parts at it. Again great video, you are an asset to the community - don't every apologize for being yourself even if you are a little sweaty or whatever. Obviously you have a passion for what you do and are thoughtful enough to try helping others by sharing your expertise. Thank you!

    Having looked at a few you tube listings for x5 transfer box issues, I would like to say your advise is first class, I assumed my problem was the transfer box plastic cogs as most say this is the issue ? on looking at your comments I looked further, and it was the control unit in the boot next to the battery, it got wet on connectors --- I had left the roof open and a rain shower discharge via drain tubes then got into lower boot. So a big thank you for getting me to look further.

    Great explanation of symptoms. I have a 2010 528xi E60 and the car is jerking bad when start driving and looses power but it drives ok after until you stop again and the same thing happens. I thought is the axle and replaced the passenger one but lifting car up noticed jerking bad coming from transfer case ... so by what you are describing here seams like is not engaging or springs are bad.. any thoughts>

    Thanks so much man! Great video. If you can answer this, I would appreciate it. My problem: 2015 X5 N55: on deceleration the car feels like there is a kick from the back. It feels like rough downshifts, but the car actually is in gear in manual mode. Just feels like kicking from the back. I pulled the fuse out to test it, and it drove smoothly in RWD only. When I put the fuse back in, it started again with the kicking. After watching your video, I feel like it may have to do with the symptom No. 2 (stuck in 4wd). What do you think? Thanks a lot in advance man!
    Well, here’s an update: I replaced the gear oil in the transfer case, and the problem went away. So before paying a lot of money for expensive replacements, try simply replacing the oil. It worked like a charm, thank god.

    This is the most helpful video i have seen so far trying to find whats wrong with my car. I have a 2012 bmw 528i xdrive. It started by making clanking noise so took it to leschwab and replaced the cv axels with aftermarket ones(cheaper). The problem didnt go away and they suggested to put OEM but i dont think it is the cv axels because the car makes clanking/slaping noise even when driving streight. When driving normal there is no warning lights unless i floor the gas pedal and than it says "drivetrain malfunction" your output power is limited to protect.... at this point i have the feeling is the transfer case because it does the hoping symtom you described when turning all the way( like it is in 4wd). Do you have any thoughts???

    • @Vini.bra1981
      @Vini.bra1981 11 месяцев назад +1

      @orlinbobchev i fixed the problem. It was the cv axles the problem. The mechanics was not seating the teeth of the axel on the wheel correctly. I put the teeth right and hold it while the mechanic tightened the bold and havent had issues in 3 years. The drivetrain fault was a different issue. My timing chain guides were broken and causing it to go out of timeing when accelerating. Had to change the guides and new timing chain. It's been running like a charm since

    I’ve noticed your eBay page is gone. Any chance you have a rebuilt transfer case for a 2012 x6 50i? You seem to be the most knowledgeable person. You covered my symptom (jerking upon acceleration = chain skipping), whereas diagnosis wanted to just replace transfer case with a brand new one. That’s not in my budget at the moment. Thanks!

    Hey.. I have a BMW X5 2006 3.0 .
    Mechanics did a scan and still are clueless!
    Codes say 227 & 228
    ( o2 bank 2 control deviation and o2 bank 1 control deviation.. )
    Also I have 4x4 DSC Inactive light on suddenly! and I hear grinding noise underneath at hard stops like down a hill...(NO Abs lights on)
    I assume Transfer Case Motor or Gear ??? Or oil ???...It feels like brake locks on when I stop down a hill..
    What could it be???
    Also...
    My check engine light has Always been on for 3 years ( Map Thermostat code) but every mechanic told me not to bother replacing that part...
    Recently The car has trouble starting every morning and when low on fuel. !!
    Cranks but No start for at least 5 cranks...
    *Maybe Fuel pump Relay??
    *Fuel pressure regulator??
    *Fuel filter??
    *Fuel Injectors ??
    They cant figure it out!!!
    Seems the Fuel Pump is working..
    I Went to over 20 car shops in 3 weeks and am really frustrated :(
    What could it be ??? They cant figure it out !!!

    Want to pick your brain on something.
    Over the last couple of days, on deceleration I would hear a rumbling vibration in the back end of my 2004 BMW x3 2.5i.
    Today, I was driving about 30 MPH and I heard a bang toward the rear of my X3 and then there was no gear that I could shift to. No "gear" light lit up on the dash, and I could hear the gears trying to engage when I shift, but it wouldn't lock up in park, or move in reverse or drive. No fluids on the street, but there was a little look of fluid on my rear differential. Could that be it?
    Thanks for your feedback, and please, keep making videos! You provide great detailed information!

  • @maxsisUni
    @maxsisUni 2 года назад +1

    Very nice video. I have e60. My actuator went bad and gears wore off. After replacing with some random amazon brand now I am getting that scenario 3 where it locks into on slow turns. Should I replace the actuator again or you think there is deeper issue? Note I did replace oil and did BMW replace oil procedure with ISTA that did something related to actuator. Also no codes found when scanning. And it happens only after about 40 min drive. Also not always just sometimes. And when I turn off my car I hear that loud sound almost like something dropping (assuming spring releases back)

  • @howlinmoondog
    @howlinmoondog 7 месяцев назад

    Sorry, but I must take issue with one thing you said: "The actuator only goes in one direction and is reversed by the powerful spring in the transfer box". This is not the case. The mechanism in the actuator motor is worm and wheel and cannot be turned back, no matter how powerful any spring is. The motor has to power in both directions to engage or disengage the clutch. In which case Im not sure what the function of the powerful return spring is. It may be to minimise any backlash in the system between the actuator and the clutch. I would appreciate your comments on this.

    • @awdpart
      @awdpart  7 месяцев назад

      hello thank you for your comment ,but you are absolutely wrong i have spent so much time understanding the mechanism of this units looked into all the wiring diagrams etc , matter fact as of today i rebuilt over 500 tcase for german cars most europeans have same logic including range rovers , and yes plastic gear and worm gear will turn backward if you apply enough power with a pipe wrench or something that will fit tight inside the spline which i made special tool for it , if it's not turning backward then you have bad plastic gear in it that is sticking

    • @howlinmoondog
      @howlinmoondog 7 месяцев назад

      Hi, thank you for your reply, but I have examined an actuator and no way can you turn it backwards.It would risk stripping the gear if I tried hard enough..The helix is too shallow. Plus, although I have not had the experience of stripping an ATC400 there is no sign of the powerful return spring mentioned being shown in any exploded diagram. So your explanation leaves me confused. Bearing in mind I am referring to the ATC400 as fitted to a 2006 BMW X3. Other models may well have a different design. There seem to be lots of contentious things said about the ATC400. My local BMW Indie here in the UK assured me that there was no point even looking at the ATC400 until I had fitted all star rated tyres first. This is clearly rubbish because all the wheels rotate at different speeds evertime you go round any bend in your car, so there is absolutely no need to have tyres all the same size to within a close tolerance. I am almost looking forward to stripping my ATC400 to see whats what in there! I would agree that its never a bad thing to change the oil in the transfer gearbox, and lots of people have stated that it has improved things in the box. I would be the first to admit there are elements of the ATC400 that I do not understand, especially how the control unit electrics work, and the significance of "readjusting the adaption values". Also how the resistor works and what it does. Presumably you can buy different resistors depending on the needs of the transfer box, but they only ever seem to be sold as "resistors" without any reference to different resistance values that might be available. BMW obviously think they have a winning formula with this box as they seem keen to use it on more of their models, despite it having a bit of a chequered reputation amongst customers. Maybe its just not robust enough when faced with clients who like to floor the throttle every time the lights go green. Another interesting question: does the box distribute power by the clutch being made to fully or partially slip all the time in which case you would think its lifetime would be measured in days or weeks, It would, if your main clutch was made to slip all the time.

    BMW service department said it’s the Transfer Case so they changed the Transfer Case Fluid and said “You need to drive the car for at least 150 miles so the fluid can circulate better and if the hesitation doesn’t go away after that, then you need to Replace it and they said, it would cost me around 6k just for the Transfer Case and that doesn’t include Labor Cost…Anyone else ever had this issue?

    Hello! I have a BMW f30 320xd, (WBA3D51010J476018), a few days ago I received an error on board (Driving Stabilisation), the car now only enters comfort mode and I have traction only on the rear wheels, after some investigations I found the following code: 48097D ( Transfer case - open clutch position, rear drive only), I mention that the failure occurred in the morning immediately after starting the engine. The car has no transfer case symptoms, does not stutter or make any strange noises. I replaced the actuator on the transfer case and it worked fine for 3 days after which the error reappeared on the board, I took the old actuator apart and found a swollen capacitor in it. Sincerely, Octavian

    Dear...i have a real vibration at 80km and 120km...
    I checked the rear driveshaft its ok balanced
    I checked the new wheels/rims and balanced them
    I removed the front drive shaft but issue still
    I checked the rear shaft convertor
    I dont know to what check...i thought it might be the transfercase but in your video you said its last unit may cause the vibration...if you have any idea i appreciate it.
    Thanks for the good video.

    We had to unplug the transfer case because the car shakes/shimmies, almost like a broken motor mount, but it goes away when transfer case is unplugged.
    It get's worse between around 20-60mph
    Car drives fine without transfer case plugged in.... obviously rear wheel only... and the 4x4 error... but this is expected with it being unplugged...
    Any ideas?

    Question, I have an E70 in my shop now that has a no gears forward or reverse problem. You can select drive or reverse on the gear selector but absolutely no movement of the car. I can faintly hear something turning when in drive. Then select park and you can hear the park paw engagement and a gear sound winding down to a stop. I checked front cv axles and they are fine. Spin front tire when jacked up and front half shaft turns. Have you ever seen one of these transfer cases break a chain where there is no transfer of power from the transmission to the drive train? Has a code 5F3A for internal transfer case fault.

    I am having hesitation on my 2013 335 f30 xdrive under load, no misfires on the engine side, no codes. The hesitation is more prominent when I put the car in sport or sport plus. A guy working at the dealership checked the car and said most probably it is transfer case(not engine or transmission). How can I be sure before I invest on one?
