    Have been advised to use ATF in the R380 rather than gear oil. Wierd, I know, but its in the owners manual too

    ATF in an R380 isn't a good idea. It isn't recommended by LR anymore and hasn't been for a fairly long time

    And make sure you can undo the filler plug before draining the oil or you could be left in all sorts of trouble.

    If you were driving one a sealed road with the CDL locked and doing a tight turn you will get noise and juddering as you are forcing 50/50 drive through the front and rear diffs and winding up the axles. There will be no compensation through the centre diff for the different ark the wheels take.

    All your other tests sound normal with CDL in and out.
    Cheers, David.
