My little old suzi escudo jumps out of 4 wheel drive at two spots on the way up my drive.
She does it within a couple of mts on the way UP only, and has not done so anywhere else.
Any ideas what is going on ? Just curious

seen old landrovers jump out of low range under load going downhill....seen and used plenty of heavy trucks that would jump out of gears at diferent times for various reasons when they old and tired....do you perchance throttle off at those places???so reduce/reverse the loading on gears??? thats a good way to MAKE a truck get out of 4wd when its being piggy.
Quite likely that I do throttle off, albeit very slightly

bump the shifter with a flipper?
manual or auto? (dunno if it make a difference i have a manual vitara and not had that happen)
Is it coming on or off any of the concrete or sealed sections? could be winding up the transfer case on the high traction surfaces.

308Win One chambering to rule them all.
That could be it, a moment of neutral throttle with no loading either way on the gears. Going down the drive you might be under engine braking so the gears are loaded that way.
My Legacy can sometimes pop out of first gear if driving slowly on a slight downhill and backing off, at the moment of neutral load in between drive and engine braking.
Check your engine and rear gearbox mounts, the engine may be twisting and pushing on the leaver.
Then have a look at the linkage it may be adjustable. I suspect that it’s caused by wear in the gearbox though.
Is it 4cylinder?

What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
Mine does it occasionally when I hot real bad corrugations on the way to my parents batch. Come round a random corner and you get smacked with a road surface like it was a test surface at a suspension factory to find the "fail point"....Shakes the car so hard it will pop out of gear (Manual) Road is frequently like this but the location of the bumps moves.
We did the trip on pushbikes a few decade ago and one smart arse going fast down hill thought he would lift his feet up on straight legs and yell WEEEEEE as he flew down the hill. He hit a set of the corrugations and did not "walk right for a week...."
I thought this was your coming out thread
