4x4 info question - Maverick27 - 22-03-2015 11:10am

Hi, does anyone here know why there is a difference between this 2? Could be a software update or something else? Many thanks guys!

Yes, the Si4 has adaptive drive which will put the car into 2WD above 23mph, SD4's are supposed to get it too in 2016. The idea on the Si4 was to help increase the fuel economy by running in 2WD. The car switches back to 4WD in 3/100ths of a second when wheel slip is detected. The screen picture also seems to show that some drive is going to the rear right wheel but none to the rear left - might be the torque vectoring in action too.

Mine is 2014MY model, Si4, but it looks like the photo below:

The only changes is 'locked in amber' and 'unlocked in green'. No torque vectoring nor 2WD & 4WD graphics on my car.

Possibly because your car is an export model and these fittings that are standard in the UK market are not available in the Malaysian market?

Is this another setting only available to later models? I don't see this option anywhere on my 2012
