Ours failed - didn't know what had failed, but loud bang and then she used to spin the front wheels when setting off turning left or right. A couple of weeks later it was dry enough to spend a day lying in the gutter for a stripdown - PTU failed. Put her back together including the failed PTU, ordered the parts from Bell Engineering then waited for another dry weekend to do it all again.

My plan to drive up to Bell Engineering may be a bit ambitious then.

Mine had done 103,000 miles, and the diff was replaced 18 months ago at 95,000.
