Been thinking about this as it's not easy to see how a spur can have any effect on the slipping action.
The only thing I can think of that would make the slipper not turn the transmission properly when it's fully tightened down was if the slipper plates are tightening down onto the central boss on the spur somehow, which maybe wouldn't provide enough friction/torque to turn the driveshaft?
2 Possibilities for that...
1) The central boss in the middle of the spur iss too wide, and is in effect wider than the slipper pads.
2) Your slipper plates have been over tightened at some point and are now dished so that middle is pushed in and now tightening down onto the boss?
Not sure if either is likely, or the real cause, but I can't think of anything else! Maybe worth a check anyway.
I have the DMS spur on my X6, I might take a look at mine over the weekend and see what it's like!
