I have one here which you can have if you replace it and cover the shipping

can anyone give me an idea on cost for a replacement ? Mine seems to become stiff on full lock, but only occasionally ?

Jager €750 new
Syncro Services €449 exchange
Busschmiede €459 exchange / €900 new

All the above is plus shipping

Mine did too, getting worse after longer drives.
Having replaced it with a refurb, I can categorically state that it shouldn't ...so get yerself a new one before you do damage to the front diff or other drivetrain parts

Sounds exactly right - def seems to be after a longer drive - maybe to do with temperature ?

Yepp, a tight VC gets hot, the longer you drive it, the hotter it gets, the hotter it gets, the tighter (and more noticeable) it becomes

He sold the one he had

I haven't any stock, only have one core here at the mo, awaiting the other one, one still in the project I hope but may not be present; I could get some from Dorfbrunnen if required, but hey you can all have the fun of that if you want

, big up to jebiga41 for face to face work on that front, I have your reward here still

I have one unknown condition one if anyone wants to try it out, but chances are it'll be tight, syncrospares probably have some used

Also worth mentioning if you are not aware earlybay.. all tyres should be same make with even wear and inflated to the correct pressures..
