Just been trying out the remote adjusting of the car height using the key fob which is meant to aid hooking up/ unhooking trailers and the like (I don't have a tow bar by the way) and was surprised that it raised the car quite a bit above the normal off road height? To check I wasn't imagining it, I got in the car and set it to off road, then, turned the hazards on, got out of the car (shut the door) and then proceeded to raise it quite a few inches more. Assume this is to allow for a 3 tonne trailer hitched up and so enabling you to re-level the car? I'm also not sure if it goes lower than the access level aswell, I'll have to get a tape measure out and check |

Cheers James, didn't know about the door sequence system - wonder who dreamt that one up , reminds me of the old PlayStation PS2 power up we used to do before starting a game (hold left button down, triangle, up button, square, down button, circle, right etc etc) |

So does max 30 inch (or so) wading depth apply at off-road height?

I heard from a LR experience instructor that the L405 wading depth was set to 900 mm because of that was the level where the vehicle's water deplacement was starting to affect wheel traction. Going deeper could have it to drift away due to lost traction. Anyone who can confirm this? Supporter and maintainer of EDF - Mrs Edfors' shopping cart. |
