Hi,
I have just got back from a trip with the Landcruiser and had to stop to give way on the start of a hill and I couldn't pull away! I was in 1st and my foot to the floor and it just wouldn't move. I've had this before when cold but this was after two hours of running. I did have a trailer behind with a Mercedes ML on that so it was loaded.
Luckily I have disconnected the switch so have control of the center diff lock and pulled away in L 1st, obviously had to stop at the top of the hill and select H again.
Does any body know of a quick fix?
The filters are new along with the pick up filter in the tank. As soon as 1600rpm is reached the turbo is spooled up and she's gone.

Cheers
Michael
