Sounds like your clock spring ("rotary coupler" in LR speak) needs replacing - not uncommon in 'early builds', although I'm sure LRCS would deny that anyone had suffered the problem.

I've had mine swapped under warranty for exactly the same reason, although the problem can also manifest iteself as failure of the audio control buttons or airbag warnings.

If the dealer claims to be unable to replicate the problem, I found that pressing on the '+' or '-' buttons half a dozen times would usually cause CC to switch off and remain unresponsive until 'reboot'. Haven't seen a TSB on the issue, so nothing 'official' to quote to the service desk.

United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black
Cruise control

Before my RRS HSE, I had a Golf Mk6 TD. The same thing happened to me with it, and, after speaking to VW service, it was put down to low fuel. It seem the car knows it was low on diesel, and at a certain level you had to run the car "manually". As if to keep your attention on the instruments more, and hence see your feul was running low. Might be the same thing. WHO KNOWS!!! Hope this helps.

Land Rover must have a patent over these "adorable" electronic gremlins that pop up every now and then. Sometimes I think they program these failures to happen in the electronics at random every so many days, it wouldn't feel like a LR without them. Wink
