Can I engage the lever while moving. The only time I tried it it sounded like it was not a very smooth operation.Thanks in advance

I have a Pajero 3500 V6 and I don't need to stop. The manual says as long as I am driving at an approx. speed below 60 mph (subject to correction) I can just engage the 4WD features on the vehicle. I am not sure if this would apply to all pajeros.

Likewise, disengage it. You may see the rear wheel light blinking on your gauge set, but this will stop as soon as you reverse the car later. If you can see the manual hub turn knob in the center of your front wheels, then it's a set of manual hub, which you must engage and disengage it manually. Hope this helps.

I will try it at low speed and find out. (I really appreciate how helpful this forum is. Ask a question and get a reply from St. Lucia, Egypt, and Malaysia!)
