When should you go from 2WD to AWD? Do you need to come to a complete stop first? Is 2WD good enough at the dunes or is AWD needed (Glamis) without paddles?

Re: When do you put it into AWD

Safest is to put it in before you start going. The coputer will not allow it to engage unless engine revs are bellow 3500 prm. Once switched in it will only engage once rear wheels slip. If running without paddles keep AWD in, just becareful if you jump to let of the gas when in the air. I think jumping is the hardest thing to do on the AWD front diff.
