I was looking around and I didn't see an answer to this. Please excuse me if it has come up before. The way I see it the SVX is always in front wheel drive and sometimes in rear wheel drive. Is this correct? I mean there is no way to disconnect the FWD with a solenoid or something else, is there?

Thanks
The car is normally 90% FWD, when the TCU sees a differential in the readings between the two speed sensors, it engages the transfer clutches so that the split is variable to 50-50. No, barring a failure in the front diff you can't disconnect the FWD.
