97 S-10, manual trans, 4WD, V6. wehn I engage the 4WD shifter, in motion or stopped, it hesitates to engage, then gives a loud bang then engages, then seems to disengage.(not positive about the last part)
Linkage?
Thanks
Jason
The gears are binding, and the vehicle is new enough the the computer can say hell no, and pop it back out. That or the mechanical portion won't hold it in place because the gears are binding. If you need 4WD, take it in to get repaired, The techs will try it out, and test it to make sure what is wrong, trust me when they are stumped, thy get 3 or 4 other techs thinking about it. They can fix it for you. A friend of mine had this issue, except in a 98 silvarado, and when he engaged his, it did the same thing. I never asked how they fixed it, but I know he went to a dealership to do it.
