Auxilary heater

Does anyone know what temperature the F B H comes in at ?
I thought it was 4degs but last night on the way to work it was on at 5degs.
Perhaps it has a mind of its own. Very Happy

I knew I saw it somewhere Thumbs Up If you don't already know about this its the same timer kit that Stalpdm has mastered , it allows you to preprogram times for your FBH.

Discussed here : http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic9796.ht...cow+russia

Feri , Your dealer should know about the FBH , how it operates and if it doesn't work , how to fix it.Have you tried another LR dealer in your area ?

The TSB you need :

Discovery 3 Engine: 2.7L(TDV6) Diesel

A customer may report a concern of poor engine starting in ambient temperatures below -25°C.

Cause: The Discovery TDV6 diesel engine is specified to start at ambient temperatures of -25°C and above. In Russia, the vehicles can experience temperatures below this threshold.
