Fitment on a used transfer box varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
Yes, but only on the Q4 four-wheel-drive variant of the 155, which used an active torque-splitting system to distribute drive between the front and rear axles. The vast majority of 155s are front-wheel drive and never had a transfer box fitted at all. If you have a standard front-wheel-drive 155, a transfer box is not a part that applies to your car, and you may be looking for something else such as a gearbox or differential.
Only the 155 Q4, which paired the transfer box with the turbocharged 2.0 Twin Spark Turbo engine producing around 190bhp. This all-wheel-drive system was unique to the Q4 and was not shared with any other 155 variant, including the non-turbo Twin Spark or the V6. If your 155 is not a Q4, it will not have a transfer box fitted.
The 155 was produced from 1992 to 1998 and received a facelift in 1995, so there is a pre-facelift and a post-facelift generation to consider. Because the Q4 transfer box is closely tied to the drivetrain and engine configuration, you should confirm with the breaker whether the specific unit from the year they have matches your registration, as mounting or ancillary details can vary across that 1995 boundary. Supplying your engine code from your V5 or a VIN check is the most useful thing you can do when approaching a breaker.
No, trim level does not affect transfer box fitment on the 155 Q4, as it is a mechanical drivetrain component determined by the engine code and drivetrain layout rather than the specification level. What matters is confirming you have a genuine Q4 and providing the engine code to the breaker. Cosmetic differences between trim levels have no bearing on whether the part will fit.
This is not a straightforward bolt-on swap and is not what the used-parts market is set up to support. The Q4's four-wheel-drive system was engineered as a complete integrated package including a unique gearbox casing, transfer box, rear differential, and driveshafts, none of which are present on a standard front-wheel-drive 155. If you are simply looking for a replacement gearbox or differential for your two-wheel-drive 155, those are the parts you should be searching for instead.
The single most useful detail you can supply to a breaker is your engine code, which you can find on your V5 logbook or through a VIN check, as mechanical parts follow the engine code above anything else. You should also confirm the year of both your car and the donor car with the breaker, particularly if either falls around the 1995 facelift. Questions around whether the specific unit needs any coding or pairing to your vehicle should be confirmed directly with the breaker against your registration, as these details can vary and cannot be guaranteed in advance.
