Auto wipe Function

Winter is almost on us. So dont forget to turn off the Autowipe function on your wipers. If you dont you will come out one morning,switch on ,and the blades will be frozen onto windsheild. Either your blades will be ruined or wiper motor will burn out itisme

That is correct, but there are probably hundreds if not thousands out there ,who don't enjoy the luxury we have with remote or timed climate control. There are also those that have not got the option on other manufactured vehicles. How many people have a garage that is not large enough to accomadate a RRS. Mine wont, unless i want to climb out of the sunroof itisme

2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 Autobiography Santorini Black

Luckily I am able to get my Sport in my single garage it's 110" wide I think it's oversized for a standard single detached garage. Any how only thing I had to do is make a stop on the overhead door otherwise it would of hit the roof of the car. Must admit I sleep better knowing it's locked away at night.

I'm another lucky garage owner I had my garage built initially for my Impreza, but with hindsight that one day i would be buying a RRS.

I avoid auto wipe if possible. Can't stand it. However, good advice from the OP. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

My wife looked out of the bedroom window this morning,Then gave me the bad news. Someone has taken your rear light. I live in a bungalow
and the car was reversed to within six foot of the bedroom window,we did not hear a thing. On inspection They had physicaly broken the light away from the body leaving the black plastic side of light still screwed to body,and left one of the push in pins on the outside broken in the holder.This looks like someone who only wanted the LED innards to update an old model. Or some youngster who doesn't know how they are fixed ,and thinks its an easy way to make a few quid. On e thing i'm glad about they unpluged the wires, not cut them itisme

I see your sport is parked in front of a garage won't it go in there, be a lot safer. Can't believe the done that.

As i said before it would go in the Garage,If i cleared it out. But then i would have to climb out of the sunroof to get out. There is not enough room to open doors to get out. I would have loved to have caught them,then it would not have only been my light broken. itisme

2007 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Cairns Blue

Back on subject I used my remote function heater when we had heavy snow year before last, it didn't heat the screen enough to shift 6 inches of snow, but when I reached in to turn engine on, wipers shifted the snow on to me and filled my door pocket up too so a lesson well learnt 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜
