Diffs on Off Road Info screen (TDV8 content)

Hi

I have a TDV8 without having (knowingly) specced the optional rear locking diff

On the sat nav's off road setting though I have a padlock icon over the rear axle as well as the one for the centre diff

Is this the default even if no diff lock is fitted?

Cheers

They are all like that! Only way to tell is to take it offroad and watch the screen........................ or out into the snow and see if the rear diff locks up, inwhich case you will get the closed padlock showing over the rear icon 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

When the rear diff locks up it turns orange and the padlock is closed. middle diff indicator does the same Thumbs Up

Cheers James - but I knew as much anyway.....

The car has been superb
I never imagined myself in one but having run it for almost a year I cant think what Id chop it in for TBH

If you still have that white Dubai spec XK after the kids have left, the horse has been turned into evostick and there is less urgency on me getting to work at 3am in a blizzard I'll give you a ring Mr. Green
