It aint really broke. That is normal when you are in one of the special terrain programs. 1st time FL2 owner. 2007 SE i6 in Tambora Flame. |

You can see it at any time. Just put the car in a special program and turn the wheels. Just dont drive too much in the special programs on a normal road surface, since I understand it can be bad for the car. 1st time FL2 owner. 2007 SE i6 in Tambora Flame. |

Its actualy telling you that it cant cope with just two wheel drive so its electronicaly engaging 4 wheel drive to get you out of your pridicament. Whe you see it coming on and off its engaging and disengaging as and when needed |

You dont need special programs on for it to come on. It will come on in normal mode. Npinks, why do you think it displays it in the information window ???? Your car drives in two wheel drive and when needed the rear wheels are ingaged automaticaly.

What caught me out is that i've used the terrain response but never seen it before. Perhaps this time was the only occasion it was really having to do something.

In normal road use the Freelander is 98% front wheel drive and 2% rear wheel drive or thereabouts. When it senses the need to give more drive to the rear wheels it will do so splitting 50%-50%. The axle/wheel symbol comes on in TR programs to show you where the front wheels are pointing, particularly useful in mud and ruts. |

The Haldex allows the Freelander 2 to be permanent 4 wheel drive with the bonus of being a 'part time' system when not needed.
