Thread: D4 Any Added Value of Rear Diff lock over TRS?

Thanks every one for the helpful responses - appreciated

Terrain Response is always active whether a Special Mode has been selected or not. The extra noise once TR is selected would be Hill Descent Control which can be switched off with the yellow button.

Yes always buy the e-diff. It'll make the vehicle more attractive to offroaders who will always prefer, or sometimes mandate a vehicle with it.

The e-diff makes offroad life easier, esepically on hill climbs. Unfortunately, it cannot be manually locked for descents.

I reckon a front locker in the same way wouldn't go amiss.

I understand that it is the TR that creates 'the noises' , however the vehicle seemed to drive through the culverts perfectly without it selected

Craig,

Perhaps the noises you heard were the ABS working in Hill Decent Control (HDC) mode which kicks in when in mud and ruts, even on small down hills, this could be the noise I can think of that would be "Activated" by using Mud & Ruts.
