If you flip the gear as I said. And ensure that you flip it 180 degrees by marking it before pulling it, you should be fine for quite a while. I am still driving on the flipped gear.

Happened to me and I opened up the motor to flip the gear. The previous owner beat me to it and the gear had already been flipped
 I ran the car in 2 wheel mode while waiting for my gear from here - BMW x3 x5 x6 E53 E83 E71 Transfer Case Motor Actuator Kit BMW 27107566296 | eBayOpened up the actuator motor, reconditioned it and fitted the gear and presto - issue sorted!

So you got the brass gear? How hard was it to put that gear cover back on? I think I will stick with the plastic gear when I have to.

Hey guys, I picked up one of their brand new high temp nylon carbon reinforced actuator gears from odometergears.com
Hang tight as I will do a full write up with removal and installation as soon as I get it. Looks like the hurricane may delay it a few days. The material used to make this gear is some pretty special stuff and in no way an ordinary plastic. We use a similar proprietary material in the Space Dynamics Lab here at Utah State University for different applications for NASA projects; rocket boosters, satillites, etc. More to come.....

Oh so your mech did it. You realize actuator is around $700 brand new from dealer, and takes 10min to swap out.
