Hubs on auto will click when the vehicle is in 4wd and moves in the opposite direction it was travelling in, or if it was stationary when 4wd was engaged.

Ie: if you stop, and put the vehicle in 4wd, and drive forward, it will click. If you stop then and reverse, it will click.

If shifting back to 2wd, remember to drive the vehicle 3 or 4 metres in the opposite direction to unlock the hubs again.

You can lock the hubs and drive in 4x2 - i n fact, that is what I normally do when I am travelling considerable distances where I will be doing alternating gravel and tar roads - as you can then shift between 2H and 4H up until 40mph (~60km/h) without damaging splines.

You must be 100% stationary to shift to 4L.

I also lock the hubs manually when doing crazy nonsense.
You can do this up to 80kph when the hubs are locked with the spanner.

Oor die radios:

Hierdie is die goedkoper een, sonder GPS: https://www.autostyle.co.za/product/tar ... vd-system/

en hierdie een met GPS: https://www.autostyle.co.za/product/tar ... avigation/

Die Pathfinder kom standaard uit met 'n Bose amp en 9 Bose speakers, en die Targa het die fasiliteit om jou speakers te verstel, voor, agter, middel, klink soos in 'n kerk, meer na jazz, meer na konsertsaal, meer na POP, meer na klassiek en al daai soort verstellings.....

Geniet hom!!

As jy op ry na Thinus toe in Pta, stop gou vir 10 minute by my, ek is net 3km wes van die N3 (by Gillooly's)op die R24 en dan kan jy gou na die radio kyk. ek is op nul ag 3 2 nege ses vyf 7 twintig. Ek is maar meeste van die tyd by die huis besig met goed hier rond.

Ek wil sommer dan met jou gesels, my broer wil sy ou Cruiser v8 verkoop, nog baie standaard, maar 'n "grey import" wat hy by sy pel Ken Forrester, die wynmaker, gekoop het. Hy het nou Ken se Cayenne V8 Sport gekoop, so nou moet die Cruiser waai. Probleem, hy is in Stellenbosch
Shot Malcolm maak so. Moet in Edenvale wees ASAP om Ecosport'jie op te tel.
