How To 4x4 Basics In The Toyota Fortuner

A quick but informative run through of some 4x4 basics with the legend Travis Duggan. He has a wealth of knowledge to share with us and we only touched the surface.

Tell Travis that's the best bit of advice I've ever heard anyone other than my dad give about river crossings. Park your car and turn off the engine to let the brakes and engine cooldown. My dad is a mechanical engineer of 50 years and he always gave that advice but the funny thing is I've never ever heard any other KZbin presenter say that before.

There's this other video specifically about river crossings, and it also mentions the same thing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpjLiYKsh5x_laM

How this video doesn't have a million likes baffles me, I am going to share it in some 4x4 and car groups here in Botswana!!!

Good explanation 4x4 for Toyota Fortuner

Learn a lot from this guy,nice video

[@abhijitbanerjee1444]

I have a old manual full time 4WD fortuner. Need to learn how to use 4L while steering close bends at uphill as I hear a sound of wheel spinning in 4L as differential lock is engaged. Does traction control on or off helps in this situation.

[@faizanakbar9395]

Outstanding explaination .. u should have also tried the train without traction control so that difference would be clear

[@rolandaber5322]

Thanks for posting this video. I live in Costa Rica driving a gen 3 toyota 4runner. Thinking about a fortune upgrade. Your test track is my everyday roads! Question, since I don't have different lock, would applying the parking brake help with traction in a cross wheel spin situation.

[@michaeldande]

well explained

[@jatintiwari1088]

Nice Video :)

[@udtravel2explore905]

Nice video

[@saltyboidoto15]

is it bad that our fwd light is orange but it enganges the 4lo. When driving on flat road the car would jump as if youre screwing your clutch changing gears. Its a manual fortuner

[@rodneyemmerich8828]

The diff lock switch is not well positioned , can easily be inadvertently pressed

[@anonymousInterceptor]

Information is very important. Music is too loud

[@ricr.4669]

Does this have a diff lock?

[@aramalexander7023]

Correct me if I'm wrong...this info is not verified.. I think the rear diff lock will only operate when in 4L.

[@michaellaylor8572]

How do you disengage 4wheel drive

[@abuimran1292]

Hi For daily use fully h4 still ok or not without damaging the machine?

[@visualoutdoor1393]

you should not drive your 4x4 in high range unless needed, for example off road, dirt road, sand roads etc. It is not recommended to drive on tar in 4x4 high range, unless your vehicle is a permanent awd vehicle, like the Prado

[@greghilsley9592]

Might be a stupid question? But once you put it 4L do you put it back in drive ? 🤷‍♂️

[@marcosd513]

Thanks
