How fast
How fast have you gone before switching to 4WD? Manual says below 55 mph.

Heh. I could have sworn it was 60. I've done it at 60. Anything over I get the beep.

I find above 5mph but the slower the better (as a rule) is the answer for the best transition 2hi to 4hi.
The official answer is 62mph IIRC. The "real" number is below 100kmh (62.5mph). Remember the T4R is based on a vehicle that sells more in the rest of the world than the US. Most of it's design limits are expressed in Kg's and KM/H's and then converted...

Probably in areas that don't have much snow, but more dirt instead. Thus the rust issues.

Ditto. Beeps and locks me out until I reduce speed on my '08.

Does it automatically shift to 4WD after you decrease your speed to 55 mph?

You have full time 4WD with the V8. I/we have selectable 2WD or 4WD, which was exactly why I bought the V6.

So is your 2WD --FWD or RWD?
|
85 mph in 4WD without any problems for me last winter. Isn't it only recomended to SHIFT into 4WD under 55, but no limit for driving speed? Thats the way I read into user manual.

Once 4WD is engaged, you're golden.

Dude, my T4R (V6) is switchable between 2WD and 4WD.
If I want to switch to 4WD, it has to be done while driving below 55mph.
