Yeah If your doing this on the road/tarmac etc STOP IT.
You will get wind up on the transmission and something will go bang sooner rather than later.
Because when you select 4 wheel drive you get equal drive to front and back so the wheels are all trying to turn at the same speed and can't on tarmac with lots of grip.
You should only select 4wd on mud, ice etc when it enables the wheels to slip so they can turn at different speeds.
You can select 4wd for a short distance in a straight line, thats not a bad thing if you don't use 4wd regularly as it keep everything turning.
But don't select it on the grippy stuff and turn corners, something will go bang if you persist.Say not always what you know, but always know what you say.
