if it burned through you are probably gonna have to get a new t-case or a new t-case cover

pretty sure u didnt fuck it up your t-case. All what you need to do is heatwrap your dp. How in the hell will u burn the acd??!? acd is the system that make your lsd work.

just curious, you meant START not strat right? btw, i think oil is leaking on to the downpipe so you smelling an oil burn when it hot. im pretty sure the Down pipe can't burn the ACD housing nor the transfer case lol.. it's a thick aluminum housing not some piece of plastic that can burn.

I read that thread also and it turned out the dealer was BSing him. He had a bad seal that was leaking down onto his downpipe, there was one person that did notice his DP rubbing into his Transfer case but it wasnt even close to going through.

Pull the downpipe off. You can drive the car up on a couple of wheel ramps and reach the DP. If you are a little guy then it will be very easy.

I had to post something because I eated the cookie :2funny:

did the eated cookie ever get resolved? My transfer case leaked and i couldn't find the cause, now my case is sitting at SCM waiting on the final warranty judgment

^^^ Check your DP, or T-case cover seal. I had Mitsubishi dealership fixed it for me and it was under Warranty !
