Change the 3 drop down boxes to select your information.

The button on the console is stability control, not A4WD.

 

thanks for the links. also whats the diferance between awd and the traction controll? when are you supposed to use one or the other?

 

p.s
i have saved a link for my wife so she can read the manual it is her truck anyway.i need big and bad truck.GRRR i am MAN hear my truck ROAR.

 

You don't have AWD (all wheel drive) you have A4WD (automatic 4 wheel drive). When A4WD is selected the vehicle will automatically shift into 4WD if wheel slip conditions are met. It will then revert back to 2WD. It is a momentary activation of 4H. I keep both of mine in that mode all the time, others will tell you not to because mileage and part wear will be effected. I've got almost 170k on one of them and I haven't worn anything out yet. The only time I take it out and go to 2WD is to hang the back end out in the dirt.
You also don't have traction control, you have AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control. Traction control is not available with this feature. RSC is way more than traction control - it monitors yaw and roll to detect impending roll over and makes power and braking corrections to (hopefully) prevent it. It does handle the traction control duties as well so you aren't without that and it saves you having to service chattering LSD clutch packs every 30k miles.

Long story short, leave it in A4WD and the traction control on (it is on by default)

 

No need to save the link. You can download the PDF file to your computer and have it handy all the time.

 

were do i get a cd fpr the navagation systom? this truck has every option that came with the 05 eb.i have figured out alot of the small stuff like back hatch/glass/spare tire release location.but the radio in this is pretty confusing
