My XK, the same as yours works the same way when put in 4Low. The 4Low light and squiggly traction control indicator comes on. To achieve full ESP Off I have to hold the button in and it shows up in the Evic.

The first thing I asked him is how many bolts are on his rear diff. I was thinking maybe he had a 4.7 QD II. But he only has a 10 both rear.
That's weird though because if I recall correctly, Andrews 06 Hemi QD II illuminates the ESP OFF when put in 4 Low.
Awesome. Thanks. Now if we can just get someone with an 08 4.7 liter QT II to respond

Well this is very interesting! i just went out and put it 4Lo and I got the yellow light with 4Lo and squiggly lines with car symbol, I then held the ESP button and 8 seconds later ESP OFF came up in EVIC. So this makes me wonder if this whole time Ive been wheeling it, ESP has not been completely off?!? Not that its ever really affected performance cause knock on wood I havent gotten stuck but I have never felt the ESP system kick in, at all..

That's weird! I thought at Wispering Pines when you put it in 4 Low it displayed ESP OFF. I remember saying... Hmmm that's not how my system works

I know, I figured since I got the squiggly lines it meant ESP was off, but I guess not.. You saw hill climbs and muddy spots where i got thru despite my tires, the ESP never kicked in or hindered the outcome..
Really makes me wonder though how itd perform with ESP OFF completely, guess Ill have to go mudding again...

From the 2007 owner manual page 142:
From the 2008 owner manual page 142-3:4WD Low RangeFull Off
This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD low
range. Whenever the vehicle is started in 4WD low range,
or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD
high range or neutral to 4WD low range, the ESP system
will be in this mode. In 4WD low range, ESP and TCS,
except for the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS
section, are turned off until the vehicle reaches a speed of
40 mph (64 km/h). At 40 mph (64 km/h), the normal ESP
stability function returns but TCS remains off. When the
vehicle speed drops below 35 mph (56 km/h), the ESP
system shuts off. ESP is off at low vehicle speeds in 4WD
low range so that it will not interfere with off-road
driving but ESP function returns to provide the stability
feature at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h). The ESP/
TCS Indicator Light will always be illuminated in 4WD
low range when ESP is off.
NOTE: The “ESP OFF” message will display and the
audible chime will sound when the gear selector is
placed into the “P” (Park) position from any position
other than “P” (Park), and then moved out of the “P”
(Park) position. This will occur even if the message was
previously cleared

Yeah the owners manual for 2007 is wrong. It states whenever the vehicle is placed in 4 low the ESP is in full OFF. That is not correct. I have to press and hold down the traction control button until I hear the chime and it displays ESP OFF on the dash.

I dont think I read it wrong. Right out of the owners manual:
4WD Low RangeFull Off
This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD low range. Whenever the vehicle is started in 4WD low range, or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD high range or neutral to 4WD low range, the ESP system will be in this mode.
The last sentence says whenever shifted from 4 HIGH to 4 LOW the ESP will be off. It even says it will chime and illuminate ESP OFF on the dash farther down the page in the manual when placed in 4 Low. Mine doesnt, 08JeepXK's does.
