Another well-balanced test. Thank you.
The poor trans will overheat if you run it in high ratio in conditions like that
Yep, check the ECU event log, it will show high torque converter temp. Does crazy shit like refusing to rev more than 1500 rpm when in high range on sand.
More video of the bogged and recover times please. Good video though mate :)
Wouldn’t it help to add some weight on the car?
was the throttle drop due to the turbo's transitioning do you think?
It looks like the tyres on the caravan were too hard still. No belly.
Where is your towing mirrors ? You will get fined sooner or later in Qld.
Clear view hasn't realised mirrors for the 300, yet only prototype mirror a few are trialling to my knowledge only clipons to factory mirror are available with difficulties keeping them attached on rough tracks.
Don't tow with diff locks so I have been told
Engaging the central diff lock in a full-time four wheel drive system is functionally the same as engaging four wheel drive in a part-time four wheel drive system. Also, it is standard operating procedure when operating a full-time four wheel drive vehicle, to engage the central diff lock whenever you go encounter a loose surface i.e., a dirt, gravel or sand road/track.
I use double diff locks when I need the extra traction - I don’t see how towing a van means you don’t want extra traction where required.
Like watching paint dry this bloke
