Pajero Diff locker?

@Barry, I think while offroading a proper locker would be better than a LSD at anytime. Correct me if I am wrong

Yes and no. Just my personal opinion.  Im not an off reader, just speaking from racing experience. A locked diff is always locked which does the job it’s supposed to do. A proper 2 way LSD doesn’t fully lock up, maybe 95% lock, but it’s better than nothing. Minimal slip on acceleration, minimal slip on deceleration. Would be better than nothing.

and with a SWB if possible...also try to stay away from the 2009 - 2013 models. These models had an unusual problem of automatic upshifting on tiptronic from 1st to 2nd gear I have heard that post 2014 or 2015 this issue was resolved.

It also happens in 2008 model when Engine rpm crosses 6500 rpm. You can get anything done in a Pajero once you know how to handle it. I'm still learning..

I had LSD (Limited Slip Differential) in my LC100 and 8 out of 10 times it failed in self-recovery.

I have rear diff lock in Pajero and 9 out of 10 times it works GREAT in self-recoveries even in some cresting positions

Yes exactly, crested , self recovery by  diff lock this Friday

It’s a bit strange. The 2008 LWB gold edition I bought for my wife is a 3.8 but without rear diff lock option. Apparently that gold edition was made for Qatar market mainly according to the seller but I haven’t seen that confirmed somewhere. The Pajeros in other countries got their rear diff lock replaced by LSD and other electronic gadgets from what I’ve read. 

Just search maybe diff lock button moves on the other place, is there rear diff lock sign on dashboard?

Yes...you will see a circle dot illuminate on the 4x4 indication near the speedometer. It happens only on 4LLc and when you select the rear difflock.

I tried but failed and in complete frustration I bought the XJ and to be doubly sure that there will be no upshifting I went for a manual. 😁

Nope no rear diff lock button on the dashboard at all.
