There was a letter to the editor in the latest Overander asking the same question.The answer from the mag was a general ok on other vehicles but no specific information for the Prado, ask ARB for details on the compatibility with traction control. What worried me was the comment in the letter saying "on constant slippery surfaces where traction control may deplete itself after 30 seconds or so". This statement either means that the TRC switches off after 30 seconds or (HELP) the brakes no longer work after 30 seconds! Does anyone have experience or knowledge about this?
For what it is worth I cannot see any reason why manual diff locks couldn't be used eventhough the TRC is not disengaged by locking the centre diff. The TRC system would simply see that all the wheels are turning at the same speed so would not need to engage the brakes to limit wheelspin.
