switching to sport, by moving the gear lever to the left has no effect, sport does not illuminate in the dispay and it remails as if its in D.

first steps into rrsports and the experience is not a good one !!!!

the car is a 55 plate supercharged.

thanks

Hey firstinretail,

First of all, I take it you have a warrenty on the car ?

Secondly, is the car holding higher revs as if its gone into sport mode or just not doing anything?

hi, only bought it on friday, so its going back tomorrow .......

no issue with the gears at all, if you never used sport you would have no idea.

Im really intrigued to the correct colour of your car.... is it siberian silver as that colour was only launched this year ? Have you got a picture to post up ? 

its silver, what variant i have no idea, all i know is its knackard, and my brief visit to the world of RR has been a nighmare not the cars fault i am sure.....

Awww dont give up on it yet... out of interest which dealer did you purchase it from. 

one you move to tge left, the D goes out and the m/s lights up, however if you kick it up or down you et an error that says "transmission fault"

are you going to ask for a refund on the motor then ? Or give them chance to rectify ? 

its a confidence thing, i would be happy with a rectification, if it can be explained and done quickly, i just want it to work .......

hopefully someone may have a pointer ....?

well, it sorted itself, but is intermittent, more working than not, sonwill see what happens....

just have to find out now why the hpi check says its been exported ..... jesus thisnhas been a stressful week..

first in....

Have you done things the wrong way round You should have HPI checked it before you bought it ! Not as its sat on your drive not working properly ! 

did an hpi on.3 other vehicles, 2 needed explanations about something, this one was hpi cnecked ny the seller, the seller is a dealer, and all the vehicle number check, i wouldnt have done it from a private buyer.

at least if the hits the fan, i have somewhere to set fire too !

have spoken to my step brother who is with GMP traffic and he says until i get the log book back not to worry, if the dvla write to me with problems, then take it back and park it on the dealers own car

You seem a very angry man, and I think you have bought the wrong motor if you are looking for 100% trouble free motoring. It seems a fact of life that with all the bits and bobs that high end land rovers have something can and will sometimes go wrong.

I have only had mine for a couple of months and it's been back for a few issues already, if you owned it I think you would have committed harry carry by now.

But why do I put up with it. Because I love it. I sit in traffic looking around at all the euro boxes and think to myself that out of all the cars around me I would choose to have mine every time. I was filling up at the garage the other night and a chap shouted across from another pump that he thought I had a really smart motor, and that makes me feel happy that others think the car is smart.

As long as your RRS is under warranty and you have a reliable dealer in the local area then you have nothing much to worry about really as any issues should be sorted without delay and personal cost.

Just get it fixed and enjoy the beauty of your lovely purchase. 2017 Range Rover Sport Autobiography
