Hi / Low Gears
When I push the Transfer gearbox switch to change to either low or high nothing happens and I have to repeat two or three times before the ratio changes.
This happens Intermittently approximately 10% first time change 90% takes two or more pushes
I have the car in neural and have tried foot on brake / no brake, blip the engine but cannot get a 100% ratio change, any one else have this ?

You could video it playing up, then you have a record to show them as you know these faults don't do their thing at the stealers.

Sometimes happens if you don't pause between selecting N and selecting Low Range.
