How to Engage Crawl Mode for Tank Turn in Land Cruiser?
1 Answers
Method for Engaging Crawl Mode (Tank Turn) in Land Cruiser: 1. Shift to N (Neutral) gear, activate low-range four-wheel drive by turning the knob to L4. 2. Engage the central differential lock and shift to D (Drive) gear. 3. Press the hill descent control button and release the brake. 4. High-range four-wheel drive (H4) is suitable for driving on gravel, muddy, snowy, or sandy terrain. Land Cruiser Crawl Mode Features: 1. ECT-PWR Transmission Mode: When activated, it operates in sport mode with delayed gear shifts and increased torque (higher fuel consumption). When deactivated, it switches to eco mode for better fuel efficiency. 2. Second-Gear Start: Allows direct acceleration from second gear. 3. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC): A Toyota-developed active safety system that significantly enhances handling safety and driving convenience. During emergency maneuvers like sharp turns, sudden acceleration, or hard braking, the system quickly detects and applies individual wheel braking while reducing engine output to maintain stability. 4. Center Differential: In multi-axle drive vehicles where drive shafts connect the axles, this inter-axle differential (also called center differential) allows different rotational speeds between axles to prevent wheel slippage.
