Hi All,

I am slowly getting to know the Patrol and am loving the plushness of it.

In exploring and poking at bits I have noticed the front hubs are turned to "lock" which normally does not present a question as I think it is fairly self explanatory, however, they have tippex white line markings on them which raises an eyebrow from me...any ideas on why someone would mark them up and is there a way of knowing (aside from the red arrows lining up with lock or auto) which mode they are in?


An unrelated annoyance seems like nothing major, I get a small clunk/knocking noise at times from the rear right that sounds initially like a spring settling/creaking and other times I wonder if it is the fuel sloshing around that I hear, happens mostly when I first set off after being parked and I can sometimes get it to do it when I simply rock the car back and forth but rarely. Initial inspection shows nothing to be loose, worn or obviously to blame...open to suggestions before jacking her up?

Thanks guys and have a cracking weekend
