hi all, i have a 1999 range rover DT which has a vibration coming from the (borg warner)transfer box area, this only happens on tick over, if you push up or pull down on the box it goes away, i've checked everything i can think of from the exhaust and gearbox and engine mounts to taking the hand brake and props off, i'm pretty stumped. can anybody throw any light on this one for me please.

Is this an auto or manual? Do you mean pull down and push up when you are underneath the car? This is at idle when stopped?

its an auto, yes had the car up on the ramps, pushing up and pulling down stops the vibration or when you pick the revs up, only does it when idling.

I have the same, it's likely coming from the engine, as the gearboxes are stationary when at rest.

FYI I am trying to isolate the problem to the ancillaries running off the serpentine drive belt - first off the viscous fan, if I can ever get it off the damn pulley!
