Now i know that its the 4wd all the time, and that it only kicks in when theres slippage. But has anyone actually seen the indicator, im guesing the one with the car on squiggly lines, turn on on the dash. Earlier on Sunday, it was donwpouring, and i had to brake pretty hard all off a sudden from 60 mph. All i heard was a buzzer, very light sound, and the brake pedal was kinda shaking, im taking it as a sign of slipping, and no warning light what so ever. So do we actually get to see this thing in action? I guess im just curious as to see if any of us has ever had the other two wheels kick in. Oh and what does that buzzer mean...no light, just buzzer. :chairshot:

I agree, it does sound like ABS kicking in. Other cars like Honda or Acura tend to be more rough in their ABS, but luxury cars like lexus and bmw tend to have such a rapid-fire ABS, that it almost feels like a vibration. I have an 06 RX330 and in my opinion, I think the awd is great

I just bought a 2006 fully loaded RX 330 AWD, and I noticed that when the radio or CD changer is on, the display screen towards the bottom of the consol tends to get really hot. is this normal? It's not even warm, sometimes it's literally as hot as a cup of coffee...I had it checked out and they said no worries, but it's hard to believe a radio would get that hot.

Thanks for your help
