mine doesn't jump out of gear, it just ends up in the 'neutral' position at the next start. Happened again after I posted yesterday. I seem to notice it occuring after an agressive launch, on the next start.

Well...I knew it wasn't gonna be that simple. No more blinking lites, but I got the msg 'service 4wd' after stopping while having done 20 miles in AWD4. It wudn't switch our of AWD4. I shut the engine off, restarted and it was all good...between this, my AC gremlins, and "reduced engine power" TB prob in the past I'm starting to wonder if I was hit by lightning!
