    1st time i messed with this on my 300 TDI, i was impressed. The next day though, i had a bit of a scare. Doing a U turn, the car lost all drive! i was like what the bloody hell! The laugh was i never had the Little leaver further back enough in Hi, and the bloody thing moved back into N. Also its good practice to select the Low range in a car park etc, just to stop it seizing into up.

    Question - while Defenders claim to be full time 4WD, aren't they truly only in 4WD if you lock the center differential (ie, little gearshift to the left side)? If the little gearshift is Hi or Lo on the right side, is that actually 2WD? Maybe the correct term of a Defender is they are full time 4WD "capable", but only if you lock the differential? Am I thinking of the terms correctly?

    N is for when the vehicle is towed. Releases the front axle full time 4 wheel drive. If you are towed with the front only off the ground and not in N. The front wheels will turn as the rears turn. Isnt that it?

      N won't do anything, that's why she made the joke
      4L/low range for crawling or keeping the vehicle from lurching at low speed
      never drive with either diff lock on concrete/asphalt at any speed or above 20-30 mph even on loose surfaces--if the tires need to spin at different speeds and you have locked differentials, you will have a very expensive shop bill

    Wouldn’t touch the new defender the defender was built as a work horse throw a bale or livestock in the back no need for fancy valet services just stick a hose in it. It was affordable or so many farmers would not have bought them and still run today my local farmer is running 3 I would love one but can’t find one that’s not going for silly money.

      Americans come up with some weird stuff lmao full time 4wd means it's an all wheel drive with a lockable centre diff in the transfer case, it's never in 2wd like part time 4wds so a car can never be both. it's as simple as 4high/low - locked/unlocked

      @ronaldrrootiii6040 Рік тому

      @@UraDrider so center locked is like a regular 4x2 truck going into its 4x4. But this goes from Awd to 4wd not 2wd to 4wd. I can't believe there was a time that they made them without Center lock but still full time. So basically they weren't even achieving normal average four-wheel drive that every single 4x4 in the world has when switched into 4x4 every chevy, dodge, ford, nissan, Toyota LOL coming up with Center lock as if it's so special when it's basically just actual four-wheel drive instead of all wheel drive

    Only has center diff lock because of permanent four-wheel drive on the street. Its nothing special. A 4x2 truck placed into 4x4 low or high, the front and rear shafts are locked at same rate also. So CDL is going into 4x4. Usually it's AWD
