Hi guys, not new to the forum, but my first post.
I bought an 05 SE PF diesel, about a year now. Had a few things to get done, alternator pulley to change, front right boot rubber needed changing, changed the fluids (AT, engine, front and rear diff), and changed a seal in the transfer case since it was leaking. Everything's in order now, except for the 4x4 driving.
I use the 4x4 shift, either auto or 4hi off and on, especially when on hills and in rains. What I found and I was wondering if this was normal is the driving when cornering.
I don't shift on the fly unless I'm straight, but sometimes I end up in a corner while in 4wheel and I get a stutter on the driving, like a bucking feeling as thought there's a strain. If I'm doing this, it would be at a slow speed. Once I was in reverse from N, and got the same feeling. Is this normal? Should I not be cornering/cornering sharply while in 4wheel? Does the same also apply to reversing?
This is my first 4x4 vehicle and just want to make sure I'm not doing anything that will blow/break parts..
