I fear the worst

Oh no. I fear the worst. I forgot to post earlier.

Arrived home in RRS on Sunday lunchtime, lowered the suspension, applied parking brake, switched off the engine..............
"Engine System Fault" (Or something similar) appears on 'i' panel. Shocked Confused

Had nothing since. Is this the beginning of the end of (1,800mls) of glitch free motoring? Big Cry Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad

Have you had the LR engine software updates done yet?

Sounds like the 'sensitive' software rather than a real issue Confused Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

Honest answer is I'm not sure.

We took delivery of the car 1st March, but not sure when it was manufactured as we bought the finished car which was sat with the dealer, from Autoprestige.com.

He speculates on long waiting list cars and charges an 'introduction fee' to 'introduce' you to the dealer. We basically took his finished car from Harwoods as the first owners, bought from new.

These sort of issues seem to be well reported, Super... but this latest release does seem to have cured some of them in a more than a couple of instances. You can be pretty sure that this won't have been done by the selling dealer as matter of course, so it's probably worth raising with them and having it done. On the other hand, you might never see these errors again... the joys of LR ownership Wink

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

That's the same problem as I had after I got home on 10th March and it got progressively worse. My car had 6200 miles on it - LR dealer put it on their computer and found old version of ECU programme and updated it, the car has run beautifully since........................... except today I have had "suspension lowering slowly" which is odd because I was raising it to normal mode from access. Switching off has reset it........... for the time being.
I think that you will need to take the car back for a brain transplant Super.

Look down the postings on this section and you will see my LR Assist and Too frustrated threads all about it 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW
