I had a weird experience with my Jeep Cherokee when I put 2 new tyres on
the front. It wouldn't drop out the diff lock. I had to drive slowly to
the dealer who then explained that the way out of it was to put one new
tyre on each axle - or buy 2 more new tyres.

its a well known issue with freelanders as well

new tyres have to go on either the front or the back - cant remember
which - or the viscous coupling burb out
