Try Bara motorsport they specialise in high end rally transmissions.
The old for cosworth boxes use to run a similar VC set up to our cars and I have had Bara build me one of those boxes in the past with rebuilt VC

By the way, I don't think the VC can be rebuilt. I think its a replace item.
But I could be wrong.

I think you are probably right, considering what I've read. I've also seen YouTube videos with 996tts spinning only their rear wheels in the snow. I understand how the 4wd system on the 996 works but don't understand why the front wheels don't move under these circumstances.
PS I had my car on jacks last week and turning either front wheel, also turned a rear wheel. Perhaps this is a basic test?
I ran a full rolling road and the front wheels didn't move at all.
Quite the opposite of the below;

Does anyone know how I can test the 4 wheel drive unit?
I have no error lights or logs

Go out with PSM off and drive really fast, ideally in the wet, if you dont crash/die its working, if it spins round 360 into a tree for a second you will know how a lot of GT2 owners felt !!!

If u die or crash - saves money fixing it
Alternatively - give 9excellence a call and ask if its normal re front tyres not moving? Im thinking its due to RWD bias on the car and sensor not picking up a break in traction to send power to the front.
