Well, I'm still enjoying the thread Thumbs Up

Can I add the high pressure fuel sensor as my D4's single most useless feature?! It's managed to put me in a RRS loaner for the last 1,456 miles / 2 weeks! Evil or Very Mad

Scotland 2014 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 XXV LE Auto Causeway GreyDiscovery 4

High beam assistant...hopeless...too slow and turned off.

Surround camera system...hopeless... quality is shocking and Landrover obviously don't think owners go out in the dark.....surely they would have tested it.....no

A follow on from above...junction view cameras....omg by the time anything appears onto the screen it'll be too late.....do not rely on these pulling out of a junction.

Worst thing ever though has to be LR customer services

I tried it 3 or 4 times on my MY11 and after each time I swore never again. It's OK on tight, windy roads but anything else it either doesn't shift "down" quick enough or switches down when passing any road signs. Have officially given up on it. Thumbs Up

When you find out how much a replacement camera is when it either gets hit by a flying stone (over £250.00 + labour), you might find it slightly worse than useless! Rolling Eyes Laughing

Agreed, shocking level of contempt for their customers, even when it comes to issues of safety.

Not so much contemptuous as battle hardened I'd say! Shocked
