4WD questions

anyone know of if there's a recommended (or otherwise reasonable) maximum speed for operating in 4WD?

also, I've only shifted into 4WD while stopped- is there a minimum speed at which you can shift over?

Snowslide,

So far I have had no problems with 4wd at 90 to 100 kph - although if your in 4wd the roads are worse so maybe it is better to slow down as well :D :D

In order for the auto hubs to lock you must be going pretty slow - basically stopped. However, once the hubs are engaged (Wheel Lock light) you can shift in and out of 4wd at any speed - best to let up on the pedal when shifting.

Have fun,

James
