I have had my l200 2.5 TDI on a 05 plate for
about 2 years now and have never had a problem
with it apart from a dead battery in winter.
It as always driven well in 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive.
The problem is when i put it in to 4 wheel drive it feels real hard to move as if the front wheels are being dragged along when i am reversing and when i drive forward it feels real hard as if the hand brake is connected to the front wheels and i am driving with the handbrake on.
Also in 4wd i can park it on a hill in neutral
with the handbrake off and it will not role away this is not normal, as any one had this problem with their l200.
Thanks mark
