Hi Guys,
New member here. Just purchased a 2006 VX Petrol and had some queries about the electronic driver assist technology and their effect on sand. I'm a fairly experienced sand driver with many trips to Fraser under the belt but it has always been in a manual. With this I have always felt in total control but I am now switching to an auto with traction and stability control.
In other vehicles there is normally a switch to disengage the stability control when driving on sand/snow as there is constant wheel slip. How is this addressed in the Prado? I am aware that the stability control is disabled when the centre diff lock is engaged however I would not want to be constantly running in this mode as the user manual suggests it should only be used to get out of deep sand.
Does anybody have advice and/or experience here?
