2012 Touareg TDI. I have noticed when on full lock slow speed front wheels skid a bit, and feels very "drive trainish" if there is a term. This is causing front tyre wear. I read this can be a common issue from a failed stepper motor on transfer case. (Diff doesn't disengage properly in slow speed tight turns and causes excessive tyre wear). apparently there are two types of transfer case, one with electric locking and the other with self locking. Electric locking has a stepper motor and self locking has no stepper motor. Mine is the later with no stepper. Has anyone had this issue? Thanks in advance

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,
