Hi guys, I'm at my wits end and was hoping anyone on here my have experienced something similar to me.. So here goes... I brought my RR Sport back in Sept. A few weeks of driving I had a fault message appear which was the pic of the outline of the vehicle with up & down arrows each side, and the 'stop vehicle, stop engine etc' message. Now it's been in the garage 3 times now, and this is what's been fixed:
Cam cover gasket replaced
New dynamic block repair kit (something to do with the dynamic stability)
The cooling systems drained as a possible air lock may be causing the fault.
So..... After all this & returning my car, the fault message is still coming up. Although not all the time, and goes off if I restart it again. The garage has had it for a week & guess what, no faults for them! They said they can give me back svk the car, but then I'll drive it & hey if the fault appears again we're back to square 1...they say there's nothing else they can check as it's not showing this fault up on the diagnostics... Any help really would be greatly appreciated

Is this LR specialist or a sales garage? If that fault is showing on your screen, you will have fault codes. It could be they don’t have decent kit for LRs. 2012 5.0 SC AB

It's a master technician, who worked for jaguar /land rover. I did ask whether they had the latest diagnostic kit and yes apparently they have

Perhaps find another indie. There are a couple of members here in Ampshire so can recommend a go to place. DrRob is a Hampshire lad, he’ll be along shortly. Where are you going at the moment?. 2006 2.7 TDV6 HSE in Cairns Blue.

I may be completely wrong here and getting confused with the pre-facelift variant as don't recall seeing it on facelift car, I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong, but is that icon you describe not related to the Suspension/Dynamic Response Systems? only trying to work out the connection with the cam cover gasket being replace and the cooling system needing to be drained. As suggested I think you need the codes read and possibly find a different Indi.

Hi Stevepd, The problem is the fault is being looked into by the garage I purchased the car from and they are using this other garage who are Jaguar/Land Rover specialists (independents), so I may not be able to find another garage, as it is still in warranty with them.

Hi Col, the Cam over Gasket I think was replaced for anther fault the car had with loss of power (not related to this vehicle icon with the up & down arrows each side). So frustrating as they are delivering the car back to me today and when I drive it and the fault appears again we are back to square 1....If I had something else it could be then maybe I could speak with the garage and get them to check it, but reluctant to take this car back with a fault that clearly hasn't been fixed..

Hi, re-read your original post and obviously mis-read it as being in the garage three times for same fault, my mistake. Trying to visualize the icon you describe is there a message goes with it and what colour is the icon? if it is suspension related without any fault codes I think it will be difficult to pin point it as there are so many. Does this look like the icon by any chance or perhaps you could add a picture which might help, as my own face-lift car doesn't appear to have this icon or should I say I have never seen it during the system check.

Hi, so the icon is similar, it's the outline of the car, with the arrows each side of the icon. Then the message, stop the car, stop the engine, stop safely. With a red warning triangle icon above with a pinging alarm sound, but the icon of the car & arrows goes oit after about 30 seconds, which just leaves the red triangle, with the pinging sound going off a bit later.
The last update from the garage was that when they drove it on Tues this fault icon appeared - horray! At least they have seen it first hand, and they have a fault code. They said, hope I heard it right, that it was something to do with the hydraulic suspension valve with had a leak, there are 2,1 each side of the vehicle.
They will informed me that they will be 'driving it extensively by road testing' to make sure the error doesn't appear again.
So..... Let's hope this fixes it, as it's very waring, I just love the car - only had it a couple of months, spent a few ££ on extras for it, but as I said to the garage, they'll have driven the car & put more mileage on it than me!!

How about this one. Could be they are talking about the Accelerometers. Although they are electrical not hydraulic. I think there is one virtually next to the D/R valve block on drivers side, the other one is mounted centreline of vehicle in the roof somewhere in the vicinity of the front interior/map light consul close to the windscreen I believe.

Hi Col, I think the icon you show is so similar to the 1 that was on my car that it must be the same, I am hoping to get the car back early next week after their extensive road testing to see if the fault message appears again after their 3rd fix. If it comes on again once I have it back I will at least have some idea of what it could be thanks to you, I will keep you posted on whether it comes on again. But after them having it 3 times & fixing 3 different things, surely there can't be any more options to try?
Thanks again for your help /comments
