Torque Split Needle jumping

[rtwin]

'92 r32 gts4

When cruising at a steady speed, pretty much no matter what speed my torque split needle has started to jump to about 5 percent then back to zero then back up again. My tyres are fine so I doubt it slips in and out of 4wd due to loss of traction. My shocks are stuffed, could that be it? Is there a sensor that causes the switch to 4wd and how do I check/test this? Will removing the 4wd fuse help?

I'm a bit confused, any help would be appreciated.

Mine does that too. Sometimes the gauge will jump to 50%, but no 4WD appears to be in effect. I think it's something silly like "it's getting old". It doesn't appear to have affected the overall performance of the car - the AWD still happens when I need it to happen. I wouldn't worry about it.

Don't remove the fuse, or you will totally disable the 4WD.

Thanks blind_elk.

It is reassuring to know that its not something worth worrying about.

removin the fuse in the wet or on the grass can be fun however

check the wear on your tyres, if they are uneven rear to front (or different sizes) it will cause your torque split to play up...

Rear wheel has to be bigger in diameter than front. Try switching front and rear wheels around.
