Just had mine replaced under warrantee. I must say I didn't think that they would be so obliging. Usually on that sort of thing you have no chance of it being replaced..........2010 RR 5.0 Autobiography

thread resurrection!
Hi,
this is what happens when you use the search function, "Thread Resurrection"
Friend looking for an 8 speed D4 and have seen one advertised with less than 60k but the Stop/Start button is badly worn away
ok easy to replace, so do the letters wear off very easy or is it a sign lots and lots of short journeys

Mines 2013 with 88k and it’s showing signs of wear. Average journeys for me, bit of long bit of short.
However, I do always switch the ignition on without starting in the morning to check the oil. So mine gets 2 presses for the first start of the day.

Time for a group buy, are you listening Dan! It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Might not be as bad as I thought then !
Suspecting it may have done loads of short trips every day
But if it’s something that’s just normal wear and tear

Mines a 2012 with 130k but the button is like new
But maybe it has already had one. My last car had 65000 on when i sold it and that had no wear either, would be a little suspicious of sub 60k car with a worn out start button??
Either that or check the previous owners finger
If it looks like this then it may explain why
SWMBO's previous car, none of the text on any regularly used button was readable. All of them chipped away bit by bit..
