Salut! Your videos keep me on the edge all along. Great camera work, superb editing, no junk music, just the right amount of sweet engine roar. Although I'm not a great fan of ruining untouched wilderness with an aggressive ATV, I still have to admit your driving skills are impressive and it's a thrill to watch. You're also courageous to go solo without a second vehicle to pull you out if needed (although I do the same :-))
Hey !! Many thanks for taking the time of writing those kind words & give your opinion ! 😃 Thoses videos were about pure off-roading, & now I'm on a turn, selling the Discovery tomorrow, but I will keep traveling with a small, cheap & modified hatchback ! Check out one of my last video called "traveling with my dag in a 200€ car" 😉
Subscribed & liked! Great vid! Your other videos are interesting and informative too. I'll try and remember some techniques when I'm out in my D2 TD5 - not that the green lanes I've driven in the UK are as "extreme" as those forest tracks. Traction control is bloody good when it works - a CDL makes it better as long as you disconnect the switch which disables the TC and ABS when the centre diff is locked.
Thank you. I think that when you engage diff lock, it disables TC, but if you turn the engine off with CDL engaged, and then restart it, it will work with CDL + TC.
nice video well made .. I'm gonna do something similar soon, i own my D2 9 years this month (my only vehicle) .. I spent the last few months collecting stuff it's getting some major up grades, its bin resprayed and i've put on the new wheels tyres trims an side steps but thats not 10 % it's gonna take another 6 months easy.. Thank's for the vid's there great
Handled the trail very well, what were the distance that you covered? The hand winch that you used, what make is it? Looks lile it can really pull a bit of weight☺ Cant wait for the next up load. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 😆👍
Still got that running light out and a side light near the end when u were hand winching time for a winch and a land anchor and defo get a ecu extension lead for that ecu
very nice vid! well done... pse explain why you don't have the CDL... your model should have it by default, you need only to make the connection with the hi-low range lever and that's it, you'll notice a strong advantage using it, as the TC will work much more efficiently. By the way you showed a good off-road driving skill
A chaque relecture de la vidéo, je découvre des détails particulièrement fun, comme le treuil manuel par exemple!!!!! A quand l'installation électrique?
What do you say about the tires? Satisfied? The reviews i have found, have been good. Your real-life experience-comments? I just bought the same tires for my Subaru Outback (2008, 2 inch lift). But haven`t driven them in mud yet.
Pretty good tires, but I think my next mount would be Hankook RT-03, we got them on the P38 and they are more polyvalent and good on the road too. Hey it should be funny to drive an Outback into the mud !! :)
Transsmission. Hey B. How is things? You're using grabbers at. Have you tried the grabber at2? I think they're better offroaders(and probably worse onroaders). Make us know your opinion. Cheers mate
Toujours aussi bien tes videos.Niveau entretien,pieces le prix est correct?Car j ai eu que des Jeep et j ai toujours aimé les land et je me renseigne...Merci
Henry Ding Pino. TC doesn't help when too muddy. It stops wheel by wheel trying to get traction but it actually slows the car down loosing momentum untill it's stuck. I sopose Batiste put a switch to the TC fuse or directly took it out for the mud. Good video and places as usual. Thanks B. Cheers
Transsmission I agree with you. But one thing what I heard about the Discovery is these cars has a problem with a transmission gear box, but exactly automatic or manual I don't know. I would like to buy Discovery 2 and I am worried about this thing. As you have a lot of experience about this type of car, which one would you advice? -) thanks a lot in advance.
Hmm I've never tried an automatic discovery 2. This really is a personnnal choice. It's my daily driver in Paris, and I sometimes miss an automatic gearbox :) But really happy to have a manual while offroading
