Used transfer boxs vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
No — the Alfa Romeo MiTo is a front-wheel-drive only car across its entire production run (2008–2018), so it never had a transfer box fitted to any variant. Transfer boxes are components found on four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles to distribute power between axles, and no MiTo was ever offered with that drivetrain. If you're hearing a noise or experiencing a drivetrain fault on your MiTo, the part you may actually be looking for is a gearbox, driveshaft, or differential, depending on the symptom.
Almost certainly, yes — because the MiTo is front-wheel-drive only, there is no transfer box in the drivetrain at any point. A garage may have used the term loosely to refer to the gearbox itself, the final drive unit within the gearbox, or a driveshaft (known on the nearside or offside). It's worth going back and asking them to clarify exactly which component needs replacing, ideally with the part number, before searching for used parts.
This question doesn't apply to the MiTo because the car was never built with a transfer box — there is simply no location in the vehicle for one to be fitted. Other Alfa Romeo models that have had four-wheel-drive systems exist in the range, but their transfer boxes are not compatible with or applicable to the MiTo's front-wheel-drive platform. If you need drivetrain parts for your MiTo, search for gearboxes or driveshafts specific to your engine code and year instead.
Depending on the fault, the parts most commonly needed on a MiTo for transmission or drivetrain issues are the manual or automatic gearbox (matched to your specific engine code), driveshafts (nearside or offside), CV joints, or the clutch assembly on manual cars. Your engine code — found on your V5 logbook or via a VIN check — is the most important detail to give a breaker, as MiTo gearboxes vary between the 1.4 petrol, 1.4 turbo, and 1.3 or 1.6 diesel variants. A good breaker will be able to cross-reference your registration to confirm the correct unit.
