Hi have just taken the plate of the back of the transfer box and oil was starting to pour out so I just stuck it right back on . I am assuming this means that the box has been reconditioned and it has the modified gear in the transfer box. I not driven the car it's getting a 200 tdi which I had in the garage but I am busy building a large extension nearly finished . So I hope that it's a good one as oils at the back of the PTO plate is this a good indicator?

Thank in advance

Oil would not be that high in a transfer box, the filler/level plug is much lower. Good indicator NO.

Well it started to pour out. I thought that that why the boxes failed no oil back there?

Now I am confused

I just looked the fill level plug is level with bottom of the plate I removed so oil is at that high that's why it poured out. The cars on a slight slope

Try it again on the flat, as it doesn't take much of an angle to give the impression that there is too much/too little oil in the sump.

It is easy enough to pull the input transfer gear and check the splines and if gear is cross drilled type.

Just remember which way you take it out. If you put it in backwards you loose some of the gears(1&2)
