Hi
I am a newbie having just had my first 4WD driving trip with my 2014 Facelift Prado GLX. I approached a hill to go down [~50m in length not that steep] but wanted to test the DAC feature. I had the car in drive in high range and my foot on the brake. I pressed the DAC button on - its icon appeared on the dash. I released the brake and started down the hill but it seemed to 'free wheel' ie it sped up, no loud engine or braking noise. I put on the brakes and went down the hill. I may have had to change my underwear.
Can someone tell me what the correct procedure is ie gear selection, brakes on/off or high or low range, when to press the DAC etc
Thanks in advance
