Hi. I went to look at an 89 325 iX for sale today. I never saw an AWD BMW when I worked on them 20 years ago in San Diego, but it snows here in Northern California. I was suspicious in testing when I could stop both front wheels idling in Drive on the rack, so tested further. Rear has a great limited slip diff, is front an open diff, or worn out? Rear end up on a jack, put running in drive, took it up to 2000 RPM and it didn't even try to move the car by the front wheels. Bad viscous coupler? Any cheaper sources than BMW? Thanks,
