UPDATE
ok so I took the car to a Imberhorne 4x4 who I’ve used before and really know their stuff. He could not get it up on the ramp due to other projects but sounds like it’s probably the transfer box. If it’s the original it’s not done bad at 350,000 miles
Thinking about swapping it out myself if the diagnosis is confirmed later this week on the lift
I note that the transfer box needs calibration. I found the “manual” process on the forum but can’t seem to get that to work.
Can anyone help with any alternative processes
If not what’s the best ‘affordable’ tool for doing the calibration or maybe just drop it back to the specialist ?
Many Thanks Richard

Wheels bing on cornering and clunking in a straight line
I have tried virtually everything
Replaced with used parts from GOS
Front diff
Rear diff
Front prop
Transfer box
New parts
Rear prop
Front hub
Rear handbrake shoes
All new transmission oils (fb ox/ xterm box/ both diffs
Most recent is the transfer box and understand the clutches need calibration
Symptoms seem worse than before after changing transfer box and gearbox oil ( main gearbox appeared over full before oil change)
Does anyone have any ideas
Could it be the gearbox Mx ( 6sp manual)
Would overfilling have masked symptoms fir a while ? Had the car about a year.
Does anyone have a nanocom I could hire / borrow in the GODSTONE / redhill area to try calibration of transfer box
I have tried the process described on here Amanda does nothing
It’s a 2006 manual tdv6
Thanks Richard
