Australia 2013 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Ipanema Sand
Dynamic Response

Does anyone know when JLR stopped fitting Dynamic Response to some RRS coming to Oz?
Wifes 2013 SDV6 Luxury Black does not have it fitted, and as per JLR correspondence to us it was "no longer fitted". Not that we are unhappy about it car drives so close to precious ones with DR that having solid roll bar rather than hydraulics is a good thing Smile Just curious about when JRL stopped fitting this. SWMBO owns this car I get to drive occasionally Smile

Both MY08 and MY10 TDV8 we had previously had it fitted. The supercharged still has it (mate has an AB). I would have thought though that the up spec SDV6 would have come with it, apparently this doesn't seem to be the case. Wonder if they fitted it to any of the V6's? And yes on the MY10 it started clunking, though it was fixed. SWMBO owns this car I get to drive occasionally Smile

Scotland 2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 SE Santorini Black

It WAS fitted to the V6 HSEs, but not the SE, afaik you has to select it every time you went for a drive, I have never tried it myself so can comment on if it is any better. I find the 'standard' settings on mine more than enough!

We do not have HSEs and SEs etc in Australia. Trim and equipment levels go with fitted engines. The TDV6 has base level trim and the Supercharged V8 the highest with the V8 and TDV8 fitting in between. However all cars can be optioned to higher levels over base trim and equipment levels.

As far as I am aware the base TDV6s did not have Dynamic Response but not sure of the later SDV6s.

Strange your experience is the opposite of mine - MY10 TDV6 I had did not have it but my Black Edition SDV6 does Confused

Never use it - partly because I forget and also not sure it makes any difference Confused Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

I was told by JLR "active cornering enhancement is no longer available." Which while not a bad thing was somewhat surprising. So wondered when/where it quietly went away. SWMBO owns this car I get to drive occasionally Smile

Maybe they found it too unreliable in Oz conditions? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Possible. Most I speak to that have it have had issues with the dreaded knocking. All fixed but all under warranty. Must have cost JLR a fortune for all the repair work. I see that this is available on the 2014 RRS so perhaps they have more confidence in it now? Given that this is what the 3rd gen, the first being the ACE in the Disco 2 (which I understand also gave problems) SWMBO owns this car I get to drive occasionally Smile

I have owned 2 D2's -1 with ACE and 1 without and I definitely knew which had it Thumbs Up

The difference between my RRSs is less noticeable - both had DSC which I believe replaced ACE but my current RRS also has a dynamic setting on terrain response which I don't find much different but I don't drive like Lewis Hamilton Confused Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Get on an autobahn or motorway and stick it on when your cruising - that's when I used it most Mike
