Guys, i just got myself a vellfire 4wd version.
But i don know how to get the 4wd working.

It only has the button(pic of 4 wheels with auto wording). Pressed and cluster show the same icon. But the "4wd" word never came out.

And i dont feel any difference. How do i turn it on constantly instead of auto matic.

Thx.

There is no manual. Even if got, it might be in japanese which I can't read.

Lel sorry.. Idk never drove vellfire and never knew there's 4wd version..

If Santa then press and hold 4wd button, in speedo there got car chassis logo lit up..
*
there only got the "Auto" button. i will try the "press and hold" technic and see tomoro.

QUOTE(ihavenoidea @ Jan 9 2016, 09:26 PM)
read around and if my understanding is correct, is it's not actually a physical 4wd system, it has electric motor on the rear that makes it like "4wd"
*
i remembered the google said something about "e-42d". But the rear has an axle and driveshaft. not sure about the motor location tho. cant find it that time.
salesman only told me its not Full time. it wont come on if you driving.
but when raining time on highway, it will be more stable.

*tapi, not full time, wont come on while driving, camne nak stable? salesman also tok kok sing song i think.

that 4wd might as well dont have

minimum need XV level of AWD only can feel difference

sebab the 4wd models are way cheaper than the 2 wheels.
maybe less demand.

No need 4wd la. The added traction is not that great anyway.
It is useful if you got stuck though

becos this model cheapest liao.

Yes, its legit.

QUOTE(AMDAthlon @ Jan 11 2016, 02:36 PM)
Dont you have the car manual?Or the manual is in japanese language?
If you have the car manual,refer to it or find online if have.
Normally those with buttons usually just push should work unless there is something wrong/there are other way.
*
No manual. Rven if got, will be in japanese.
Tried google, came up nothing except car dealers advertising.

Nope, tarak. Cant find either.

Confirm 4wd or Awd ?, usually Awd fulltime, cannot disengage. But sometimes 4wd system are also fulltime, like my Landcruiser, Fulltime 4wd.
*
Not sure. Normally these vellfires are only front drive.
But this got 4wd. But i not sure fulltime or not...

Just saw the button there. Pressed also no diff.

That time was like 190k.

How do you activate the signal indicator?

Based on my observation, it's so hard Alphard/Vellfire to give signal when they are on the road.  icon_question.gif
*
Er..just use the signal indicator stick.

QUOTE(RobUlstan @ Jun 1 2017, 01:14 PM)
Wow after 1.5 years thread was necroed and TS still actually don't know his car 4wd or not...
*
True. I travel up down cameron highland with and without the switch on, yet still felt no different.

Got asked the mechanics, but none of them actually knew. Cos they not into jap cars.
