So my Kia sorrento has died. 06 plate done 115,000 miles 2.5 crdi but it is awd and the transfer box is buggered. Apparently with any 4x4 that has AWD this is a torque on demand box Tod and if you have these then you have to replace all 4 tyres when you put a new tyre on so the differential isn’t messed up. Basically if you gave tyres with different tread depths it thinks one or more is slipping so constantly engages the AWD so it ends up knackered. No one has ever told us this not even Kia. Looking though all 4x4 seem to have AWD then a low ratio option so you are always stuck with the same issue unless you buy a defender etc which has 2wd, 4wd and diffs.
Any mechanics know different???
