Let me preface this question with some info: I bought a ix with a broken/disconnected front left axle which I drove home without any issue. Later, while doing some research I found a few forums where people mentioned that a bad 325ix TC will act like an open diff.
With this in mind, would it be safe to assume that my TC is in good shape?
My thinking is that since the front diff and a bad TC would both be "open", I would assume that all of the power would go to the freely spinning axle. Since this didn't happen, is the viscous coupling good?
I understand that I could do the jack test, but the car is being worked on in my garage at the moment and I removed the TC to get to a transmission leak.
