Updating this thread.
Vehicle was in for service and I had them look at this issue. They claimed it was a misfire in #3 that was causing the jumping skipping whatever it’s doing. Weird because it only does it while in a 4x4 mode and never in 2x. I asked if they drove and tested it, service manager said they did. Get car delivered at my house and drove it the next morning… sure enough it still has the flipping issue. Service manager wants to do a ride along with me next week. Hopefully, this thing won’t make a liar out of me. I’ll update later.
