Hi David

Your car should have the ZF 8 speed box as Stu says is there any evidence that the box has serviced ZF recommend every 60k miles and they often get foregotten. Other things to check First Tyres are they all the correct size and are wear patterns the same. Odd tyres across axels or front to rear can wreak havoc mainly with the Transfer case though. Second find a good open area and on full lock reverse slowly if it is a Transfer case issue you will feel/hear a jerking through the steering. If all is smooth yout Transfer case should be OK

My local BMW Specialist charges £650 for a GB service plus around £80 if a software update is needed. I save around £260 by doing it myself (ZF Fluid and Filters)

Morning David

Make sure the tyres are correct for the car ? Are they all the same make and rolling radius if one is out your Transfer Case fix might need repeating
