Already do John but if i have meetings the next day, i cant cancel them because the Landy has packed up.
Ultimately the car is a means to earn money...if it packs up then im not doing so.
Not all doom and gloom as this is the first tester of work carried out when not in warranty, however i ran a 328i coupe for 160k miles from new with not a hint of a problem, so landrover have a bench mark to meet. "you cannot teach stupid people to do clever things"

how did the beemer do on the numerous track days you took it on to push it to the limits? And was it faultless on your road trip to North Africa?
Or were those faultless miles all done under normal use and conditions on UK roads?  Carbon footprint? I neither know nor give a damn

There's a new independent LR approved service dept in Raynes Park, part of Wimbledon 4x4.
BTW My warranty recently ran out and 2 weeks later a problem occured. Hunters in Guildford still fixed it free of charge as it was so close to date. Slowly building a silver G4 RRS!

This sounds just like the problem I had at Salisbury this year  ,
It was down to a speed sensor (I think the dealer said on the axle).
Took them a while to sort it as ,you guessed it the part was on back order.
Hope you get it sorted  D3 and love it!!!

You might not think it very helpful but as I was the 3rd of the 3 new ones from Keiron last Wednesday and Thursday, I can only second this suggestion
Mate of mine just got a new M3 coupe. Personally I found that the interior feels a little cheap and plasticy - not a patch on an older 3 series

Had the same thing a week or two back.
Odds on to be one of the rear abs sensors.
I did 300 miles in access mode, different!
