Super slippy rock crawling.

Mine has a rear locker. Al ...

The radio power button can be used as well (unless that's what you're referring to). Hold for 15 seconds and it triggers a reboot which takes a couple of minutes.

Interesting people saying that the new D200 defender feels underpowered when towing. My 130HP TD5, while no race car, does OK even with 3T on the back!

It’s a good point. I still tow with my Puma ...

It sounds as though it is essentially a Haldex type unit.

CAVEAT: I'm slightly out of my mechanical depth

I don't think it's a HALDEX unit (which is hydraulically operated). It's an actuator-ba ...

Tim - this is a known issue.

Mine does it, my brother-in-law's does it and my dealer's showroom cars do it.
