Discovery 3 electric off road toys

(1/3) > >>

Jake:
Can any one help with this?
I'm planning on taking my D3 courtsey car of the beaten track and it has a few electronic toys which sound a bit confusing.
I have read the hand book and its resonably clear but can anyone here give me first hand advice?
Which selection do i choose for what?
i.e
Muddy tracks with holes?
That sounds like i might need 2 settings.
Grass Gravel Snow and Rock Crawl.
Which would i use?
The book has told me to turn of the DSC too.
Raising the suspension? is it as simple as pushing the lever forward?
Does it lower when the door is opened?
Is low range selected by just pulling the lever back?

Its so easy in my 300. Push the lever into low, move across into diff lock.
Push the pedal and go.
I cant wait to see how this car performs though.
 =P~

Thrasher:
DSC must be switched off when offroad as it detects on-road handling problems (spinning wheels, angles etc) and backs off the power - not something you want or need offroad!

Turn the engine on and play - you can't break it. Will only raise/lower with doors closed normally. Does not drop back when door is opened as this would be a stupid design flaw! Imagine - stuck, open door, vehicle drops 4" .... ow ow ow ;-) Door is now bent/stuck on bank ;-

Why you coming, 7pm to 7am  8)

Jake:
Tonight?
I was'nt planning on it.
I think i'll need daytime vision to play with this car.
I'll be able to see the things that might damage it more clearly  :wink:
I'm planning on going to Huntswood (Taplow) tomorrow for a look.
Maybe i'll have a drive once i've had a look around
We'll see  :wink:

Jake:
I've just got back from the Little Britain ford (Uxbridge) and it drove through with no worries.
The off road systems seem obvious enough and the car raised it self when i selected low box and grass gravel snow setting.
Easy.
