It gives me great pleasure to announce the conclusion of my quest to obtain a replacement Transfer box for my beloved V70 R AWD. Managed to buy a secondhand unit off eBay, condition unknown, found a local gearbox specialist who was able to strip the unit, and rebuild with new seals and bearings, and now awaiting it to be fitted. Once the old one is removed, I will have that rebuilt, and kept as a spare. Happy days.
