Hi @Frederic and @Gaurav, Thank you for your responses. I service my vehicle at Al habtoor every 10k km. It was in for a service just 2 weeks ago. I visited a recommended off-road garage in Abu Dhabi where I've been before for some minor things, thinking this will be one of the easy fixes mentioned in this post. They checked with the computer while I was there and explained the fault to me but I didn't see the error codes myself. I'm also very skeptical that the transfer case can go that easily. From my understanding this transfer case should be near bulletproof. @Frederic, to answer your questions. I'm very careful with shifting and when I use which gears, another reason I'm skeptical the transfer case could be broken. When going from 4LLc I always stop in neutral, and shift to 4HLc then 4H or 2H. This time the center diff light started flashing immediately after shifting from 4LLc and stays on all the time. There are no other lights. I drove home in 2H but I noticed a slightly deeper hum when I reached 100km/h. So I assumed the vehicle is in 4H and didn't go over 100. I confirmed this by driving three wheels onto a small dune next to the road. While the shifter is in 2H, power is still going to the back and the front wheels. I decided to take it back to Al habtoor yesterday since they serviced it recently. The service advisor checked if we could stop the error by removing the battery terminal too but it didn't work. He suspected it's one of the switches going into the transfer case. They should let me know by the end of today.

@Looper lock old lady dune and start planning

Dear @Victor Socaciu I can completely relate to you, of my initial days into off-roading and excitement and confidence to do FB drives after couple of NB drives - however Safety comes first and the grading structure in place as @Gaurav shared above has been with lot of inputs and experiences in past. Hence I have just removed you from RSVP, so others in WL can plan their weekend accordingly. Would for sure love to see you soon in one of the drives , and btw amazing choice of car jeep power - all the way !!

Well done @Prithvi Raj !

As they always do. I've read a few posts on the Aussie forums. And from what I understand in this post too, replacing one switch wasn't enough. Eventually replacing all switches fixes the problem. It's really the labor costs that are so much. So I will try claiming poverty to get that down. I just hope this fixes it.

At least there is more information now but it seems Habtoor is gonna use the bazooka to kill a mosquito 😜 More info here: https://www.pajeroforum.com.au/forum/vehicles/generation-4-3-pajero/64897-my-turn-for-centre-difflock-flashing-orange/page2

Hi everyone! Thank you all for your suggestions, After a year of waiting, I finally received the all new 2024 Jeep Rubicon Xtreme Recon from Trading Enterprise in April. I'm excited to go on drives with you all, but I'm not sure how many kilometers I should drive before going off-road. Any suggestions?
