i have a 2019 Rubicon with the 2.0 L turbo. I tried to go up my driveway, which isn’t super steep, but it has maybe 6 inches of snow on it. I put it into 4L and in first gear (manual mode) reving it was like being in neutral. I put it in second gear (again in manual mode) and tried going up my driveway with a bit of a running start. The engine felt like it completely bogged down. I applied throttle but there was no response. Then after a second or two the engine started building rpm and i climbed up my driveway.
I guess my first question is, was this caused by turbo lag, or possibly being in manual mode instead of letting the transmission find the right gear? Should i have been in 4L or 4H?
First time Jeep owner so i appreciate the help.
