Unless I am mistaken the 96 runs as all wheel drive in high. Only run in low four wheel if off road. Do need to do this from time to time in order for low gear not to lock up from not being used.

The differentials should be disengaged or you going to do damage. They should only be locked in when moving at low speeds.

When i put in gear makes loud bang more so when car warm it sounds more like front diff than gear box area( common ) land rover discovery 95

Gear clunking is normal in the Rover's transfer case. It uses straight cut gears - they are stronger, but louder. If not out of the T-Case, check the front driveshaft - another common wear point.

check and see if the window lock is on or not, driver side window and sunroof will still function when window lock is activated however, the other windows will not work, even by the drivers control, it should be the button on the top right next to your power door lock switch,

How do you you lock or unlock 4wd on a 2000 land rover discovery

The 1996 discovery is full time 4wd and can only be changed from high to low range using the transfer case shifter with the truck in neutral rolling between 1-5mph. you can also move the same lever left to right to engage the transfer case diff lock

I would like to know if it is possible to unlock the differential on my 1998 landrover discovery so that I dont have to be in 4wd all of the time.

Short answer no! The vehicle is designed to be in 4x4 mode all the time. Long answer is Yes! But you will have to remove the Front propshaft and select Diff lock on (Small gear lever in front of main gear lever). When the diff lock is on a green light will illuminate on the dash near the speedo. This is not recommended for long duration, but is pefectly OK for a short trip on road to get you out of a fix, or for fault finding.

The auxilary gear is locked in high position.

Make sure you are on level ground. All 4 wheels must be =. Play around with the diff-lock switch.
