Before I take up an argument, I feel your just arguing for the sake of it and not being logical.

 

Ok Ok, bust seriously, not having an ayc pump active doesn't hurt the car. All it does is not give you the intricate super all wheel control that the x's have. You'll be running open diffs. Some argue that what is the point in owning an X if you don't have it running at its full capability, others are just tired of, or don't want to replace the pump and spend the money to replace it. Again.

 

If we're going to go OT and talk about motivation, etc, I'll say that I believe that you're just repeating stuff you've seen on the internet and have no idea why driving with the pump unplugged or dead could harm anything. I'll also say that I care about the issue because I've been driving for 10 months with no pump and will probably continue for some time to come.

Now, please say why you think that driving with the pump unplugged is a problem.

 

like honestly though. Theres a huge write up on evoxforums on how it works and I'm not willing to explain it again

 

time for me to go find some threads.

 

Would that be the same EvoXForums that has pictures of the ACD/AYC pump completely mislabeled in a way that makes it clear that their resident expert has no clue how the system actually works, or is there more than one EvoXForums?

Running without a pump or with the pump unplugged is exactly described by saying that you're driving around with two open diffs.
