Yeah, all that. Got an '08 at home that sometimes needs encouragement (neutral, clutch in and perhaps some rocking on the gears). One tip I've yet to try - park the car on level ground (handbrake on, all best practices observed) apply your angry face and dance around the car three times in an anticlockwise direction. I think this one is to embarrass the car into submission.

So on mine recently I had electrical issues (could not get 4WD at all) and it turned out to be a broken wire on the front switch on the transfer box. But in fault finding I ended up taking both the 4WD switch and the 4WD-L switch out to investigate.
When you press the button on the dash do you hear movement in the transfer box?
Might be worth a look underneath at the back switch to see if the wires to it are good and they are still plugged in.
As I understand it, once you are in 4WD and press the button for 4WD-L then the switch on tx box has to sense the movement within 2 seconds or it fails to engage.
