Slowly Failing

In recent weeks, some of the systems on my MY11 D4 have been failing and I wondered if they are in any way linked or just random failures?

So, in order of failure, they are:

1. Rear Parking Sensors (started as occasional failure some time ago, now complete but camera works)
2. Timed Climate (tried a hard rest but still not working)
3. Towing Indicator Light (blinks but only when indicating a right turn...oh and I'm not towing anything Thud )
4. DAB Radio (stopped last couple of day, car is very dirty at the moment)

On the subject of a hard reset, how do you know that it's been successfully? The clock/date zeroed and I've had to start again with voice dial, so did it work?

It's what happens once you're out of warranty. I wonder how many systems have a 3 year design life. Whistle

Three days after the official LR warranty expired the seals on the steering rack failed and I couldn't move, so I think you're probably right Twisted Evil

Then don't worry. Be afraid , very afraid, when your car is too old or too high miles for a warranty. Like mine is going to be next summer. Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry

Wiring loom and a faulty front (yes front!) sensor apparently. All sorted now. Thumbs Up
