I found this a good honest review aimed at the 2nd hand market.

Good review, although I would love to put that Jimny on a weighbridge!

Being Australia, it might have the GVM upgrade, although that doesn't allow for more roof load!

Do our Gen4s have the anti-falling asleep feature as well? I'm sure he said it had it as well as the wheel shaker if you drift out of lane.

I suppose I could try closing my eyes when I'm going along...

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

I think it is just the lane warning, they do have it but I turn it off as I find the vibration annoying

I have had the dash warning and the bleep, but never felt the steering wheel vibrate. Must try harder

You are obviously a Good Driver then, not like me ;)

Just change lanes without indicating.


It is at 7:50 in the video, "Lane departure warnings and driver attention and fatigue detection"  Probably he has read a spec. sheet and the attention & fatigue detection is an overall title for all the wheel shaking and "DANGER! DANGER! COLLISION IMMINENT!" (parked car detected 200 yards away)

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

Vibrating lane change indicator is a standard feature once your Kingpin bearings start to fail. The cat eyes induce steering wobble as you swap lanes, so it's a feature in waiting even if you don't have it now
