A few years ago I took the thing to Tuscany, and was staying at a
complex of villas at the top of a very windey steep gravel and dirt
track - one of the most enjoyable bits of the whole holiday was
putting the thing into 4WD and driving up/down the hill at about 4
times the speed of everyone else staying there (almost exclusively
germans in Mercs). 4x4s rock.
On the other hand,, the last time I put it into FWD, it made a sort of
whining screech for a little bit, which then went away - is this
normal, or is it going to go bang?
