Hi all, second post today. I have had a vibration through the steering wheel and pedals for some time now but have never been able diagnose as is was load related but always thought it was diff related. Now the d3 has developed a thudding noise which can also feel through the steering wheel and pedals and is there above 50mph and is speed related. I have spoken to my Indy about this and I asked him about putting it on the lift and running it in gear to have a listen but he says only two wheels will run, so my question is, is there a way to run all four wheels together whilst in the air ie by using the off road settings.
Regards
Dave

It's four wheel drive by default, if you get all four off the ground they will all turn together, well they do on mine anyway, I've had mine on 4 axle stands while looking for a similar fault.Clive
Hi woody, cheers for the reply. I will have another chat with him then. I've only ever had front wheel drive cars so I wasn't sure about this one, I just thought it was like that ie front wheel drive in the air only one wheel spins.
Thanks again for the info
Dave
He just thought one wheel on the front and one on the rear would spin

I think you're just being fobbed off TBH.
Forgetting locking diffs etc the resistance to differential operation within the diffs should make both wheels, any given diff drives, rotate once revved up unless of course one wheel has too much friction (sticking pads, knackered bearing, etc). If this is the case then start looking right there.
