cant really answer that in my usually polite manner mr drift !!!!!! but suffice to say, i did drain and refill the gearbox but didnt do the transfer box!! didnt see the need as i hadnt drained it, but when i undid the drain plug today it was absolutely bone dry
i can here you laughin now drifty !!! personally, i blame si!!!!!!

mine are separate, I wouldn't have thought that an empty transfer box in 2wd on an A would have caused issues though.
My transfer box was dry for most of last winter due to the front output bearing collapsed and ruining the out put seal, still ran great in 2wd.
I had to change the box as I wanted 4wd but other than that I would have left it.
