Hi,
I have replaced the oil in my transfer box and hoped I would be able to reset the adaption using INPA but I can't see how.
Do I need to use DIS and if so is there any easy way of locating and installing it?

Alternatively is there any willing members in the North West who can help me out (I'm happy to contribute with help, beers or payment)

For the gearbox, it used to be no more than ignition on, don't start the engine, full throttle for at least 30 secs, switch off.  Start engine in the normal way and it starts learning again.

Transfer box oil. Only Dis or Ista.

when i bought my car the scanner 1.4.0 showed "oil abrasion" fault code in the transfer box module.
i changed the oil and reset the t/b module on the scanner.  fault code cleared and never seen again.
