Hi guys.
I'm going to the Snowies this coming week and expect some of the roads will be a bit iced up. Now, because the Tig is a compact SUV I don't think I need to carry chains, but I know it's not full-time all wheel drive, so am concerned about safety.
I have the off-road technology pack which, when engaged, makes the haldex split the power 50:50 between back and front rather than the "normal" 90:10 bias toward the front. So when I'm on icey roads, should I be engaging off-road technology just to be safe? Or does the haldex controller react quickly enough to keep me safe anyway?
Also, should I adjust my tyre pressures to make them softer for better traction (larger contact patch)?
Very interested in your responses, especially for those of you that have taken your Tig's on iced up roads.
Cheers.
