WHAT IS THE ACTUATOR’S REPAIR?
An internal cleaning will be performed to repair the actuator to ensure that the electronic components are not covered by dust or dirt, which may affect the operation of the actuator, as well as a check of the mechanical parts so that they are not worn or damaged.
WHAT IS THE TRANSFER BOX ACTUATOR?
In short, this small actuator , or motorist as others call it, is part of the 4X4 system of cars equipped with the X-drive system.
We could say that this actuator determines the transfer box to work in the most optimal and intelligent way, this being the electrical part of the X-DRIVE system.
Of course, like any other component of the machine, the actuator has a lifespan that varies depending on how the machine is operated.
What are the symptoms that the actuator needs to be changed?
The transfer case is not equipped with any sensor to indicate on board the optimal malfunction, or complete damage to the mechanism by certain witnesses.
When the following warning lights come on board: ABS, 4X4, parking brake, and sometimes airbag, the causes can be varied and multiple:
- Transfer case – internal failure. In this situation, the transfer case prevents the actuator from operating within the parameters in which it was calibrated.
- Transfer case actuator – electrical or mechanical failure. In this situation, the actuator either cannot activate the system in the transfer case or does not activate it properly.
- Isolated cases – Intermittent or permanent damage to ABS sensors, polar wheel, or steering sensor.
What to do?
Determine with the help of the diagnosis which is the source of the lights on the board. Sometimes it can be a single cause, but other times it can be multiple.
Check the systems indicated by the lights on the board, if they work in normal and permanent parameters.
At other times, in addition to these witnesses, there may be certain mechanical symptoms that are felt when driving on a straight road or in corners.
In any case, our suggestion is that each of the clients who face such problems should pay us a personal visit.
You’ll probably say it’s far away… and that’s it. It is not always easy to travel hundreds of kilometers just for a car service. But don’t forget to consider 2 aspects:
1. 
Our team will always be safe and will not change a particular part if it does not need to be changed.
Our experience gained in about 10 years is useful when we have to make a diagnosis.
In addition, once you reach us, we can detect the cause of the fault, and this is very important for the future of your car.
It can be a minor issue that the customer probably did not realize, and over time it may have damaged the transfer case or the actuator.
2. By calling on our services you will be able to have our professionalism. In addition, every job done in our service will be recorded in the car’s service history using the original ISTA program.
We guarantee the quality of our products!
For those who did not know yet, we want to tell you that all our products have a warranty. Those repaired by a 12-month warranty, and the new ones by a 24-month warranty.
The reasons why we are confident in the quality of our products are due to the experience gained in years of work.
On the other hand, all the repair kit used to repair the transfer box actuators is original, and its price is not far from the price of the entire actuator offered by us.
This gives us the confidence that our products will have a long shelf life. Although we are not the only ones who know how to repair these actuators, we can say that we are perhaps among the few who use this original putty.
Why do we say that? Below are some of the counterfeit components that some use to repair actuators.
The suggestive images above confirm one essential thing: the materials and engineering designed by BMW engineers cannot be easily copied, and the result of using these cheap alternatives results in the low durability of the products in which they are used.
