    My '09 6 speed manual won't actually go into 4wheel lo, it's just beeps and flashes. I tried switching it while in gear vs neutral, no joy. Any ideas?

    And is your brake pedal mashed all the way to the floor? Mine won't change unless I'm really on the brake hard.

    you have to be at a full stop and in neutral. If it won't go in, roll a little forward or back and then try again

    EDIT: for manual, you have to have the clutch to the floor as well
