All the Disco's and RRS's made it over that obstacle, although the ones with the rear eLocker look a little more controlled. The FL2's struggle to make it, some require a little help via the snatch st ... |

How do you brake only one front/rear wheel?
If you're regularly off-road, you can get uneven wear via the traction control operation. particularly if you drive the same route all the time.

When I use my Windows-based HTC, it does this intermittently and the only solution seems to be to reboot the phone. Hasn't happened with my Android phone (HTC Desire) yet.

I have a conundrum. I want to leave my RRS in long-term parking for 4 weeks, but want to disconnect the battery so that she doesn't keep 'waking up' and flattening it. However, the car won't lock with ... |

I towed an off-road camper over the Docker River Rd before it was graded in 2006. Worst corrugations I've ever encountered - made the Gibb River Rd look like a ironing board (well not quite, but you g ... |

I've had several clients/friends do the Canning Stock Route in D3's and D4's. The RRS should handle it easily, having a shorter wheelbase and being slightly lighter. They're telling you porkies ...... ... |

Yes, it's a std pin, but not sure I trust the DTC readout - only seems to have very limited coverage.

I've got a set of 18" outer rims from Dynamic/Eastern that I'm trying to make up a centre for. It needs to fit over the 3.0 TDV6 2010 brake calipers and still be within the legal limit for offset ... |

One problem is the clearance between the front upper control arm and the tyre. No way will it fit a 2010 model. Doubt it would fit the earlier ones either - there's not much clearance with 285's on.

As MAW said, EPB emergency there is but I too have not heard of emergency gear select release! Interesting.

There is an emergency release procedure. I know how it's done in a D3, but for the RRS, if it's not outlined in the manual, try the GTR online.
