Traction control on the beach was created by pim123
Hi, saw a vid about the traction control of a Gen4 on the beach. There was said that, although you switcht it off before going into the loose sand, it automaticaly switched on again ...
Any one this experience ?

Yes, because sand driving is quite fast so it re- enables itself.
Quite widely talked about

But this was not on the hard sand but on the soft stuff, quite annoying it seems

Previous posts on how to disable. There is also a video showing the process.

Who would have thought.....
Landrover 4x4 problems with a Suzuki 4x4....
Has anybody put a standard gen4 against a standard gen3 ? Do these gizmo's work better than a driver ?
Having seen a novice driver nail Gatescarth Pass on his first 4x4 drive, I think they work ok but are they equal or better ?

I think they work fine, some of the last gen3s had a similar system. For me the issue is that they need a different driving technique to what most legacy 4x4s have. The electronics need something to work with, so you have to put energy into the system so the system can detect issues and feed the energy where it is most effective. This means putting on slightly more revs that legacy users are used to. This also means that there can be more speed in the system than a "controlled driver" would like. This works fine in light 4x4 situations that the average user will encounter (snow on driveway etc.) but in more extreme situations crawling over large rocks then the speed can be all wrong.
