►No matter how well the xDrive system was designed, the BMW X3 transfer case actuators do fail and will need to be serviced or replaced.
There are a few BMW X3 transfer case symptoms you might notice when it begins to fail. One of the first and most glaringly obvious signs is if you've noticed the 4x4, ABS, brake, or all three symbols illuminate on your dash; this could be a sign that your transfer case actuator gears are starting to fail. Another symptom that's less obvious is that you may also hear a clicking noise when putting the transmission in gear.
In this video, Mike Hidalgo doesn't just replace the transfer case actuator gears, he begins by replacing the transfer case fluid. We recommend using only BMW transfer case fluid (DTF1) which you can find here: www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-...
After this job is complete, you're going to want to have the BMW X3 transfer case reset. The adaptation values will need to be reset with a laptop running BMW ISTA, or by bringing it to a dealer/shop that can do this for you.

What stops the plastic gear from coming out while the worm gear is still in place? It would seem the only reason to take the motor out is to make it easier to clean the worm gear. Perhaps dremel tool with a small grinder would be better than breaking the casting.

I bought the car a year ago and I changed the gear, new fluid and the car ran fine. Now a year later the abs, 4x4 and tpms lights are on. ABS would apply every time I brake and the car hesitates like it's gonna stall then seconds after the tpms light comes on, that's when DSC system is disable ! The car runs fine after but without DSC and ABS, 4x4 and tpms lights come on. I changed to new 4 abs sensors but no fix. I have to take the abs fuse out to stop the abs to act up. Now I am just driving with bunch of lights on the dash, no abs and don't know if 4x4 still work or not! I also changed to the new actuator !

First off; thank you so much for the information; I was able to but the new gear for $11 on Amazon; spent an hour removing and replacing it with little difficulty; Here is what’s odd though; at first the warning lights were off, but came back on the next day; I pulled it out again; I believe that I did everything right; but I suspect that the actuator motor is having trouble turning the gear in the transfer case. Because after driving twice, the new gear is already damaged. Any suggestions on what to do next? Thank you for any suggestions.

Hi Guillermo, the best thing to do is start with the easiest, which would be to check the heat shields. There is a good chance one was bent out of the way and is touching something while driving. Otherwise, a more deep inspection will be needed to ensure everything was secured properly, fluids were topped off, and of course that the replacement case is healthy. Crossing our fingers it is just a shield!

If I start the car and sign does not show on dashboard, the car only drives on first gear 35 Km speed max. Took it to many mechanics and nobody could fix it. First guy said he fixed alternator and reprogrammed ECM , The second told me to check and change Positon switch which I did today and still problem not fixed .Now they are saying its the alternator which the first guy fixed. I checked the battery its giving 12.4 V and when car started and I hit Benzin pedal it goes up to 13.9-14 Volt .

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..

You can certainly do this job at home, the main thing is to have the vehicle level for proper filling of the transfer case fluid!

This fix will be good for another 100k or so, however the fluid should be changed way before that!

I think the dealer would give you grief for doing the fluid yourself. What if you just don’t reset the computer?
@fcpeuro
@fcpeuro 2 жыл бұрын
If you are doing the fluid at a normal service interval, with no issues or codes then you can typically just change the fluid and go. On this specific X3 we worked on, there was a code for issues with the t-case, for which we had to reset adaptation values.
