Have had a couple of minor niggles recently (glove box lid with anoying rattle, mirrors not returning fully after reverse dipping) and then last week had the foglights fail, strangely on a foggy morning, funny that!  Replaced the fuse, but it blew immediately I turned the lights on. Finally decided to book it into 'stealer' for warranty work. First occasion after 11 months, so not too bad.
Rattle was fixed, mirrors need a new module, now on order, but the fog lights turned out to be subject of a very recend mod, according to the manager. Appears that the loom has an incorrect routing and chaffes then shorts out the 2 bare wires, so LR have issued a new loom to fix. All OK now, so happy bunny again  Also had a Freelander 2 to play with for the day, so OK to Stratstones Cardiff 
Just wondered if anyone else has had this foglight blowing issue?

Several posts about the foglight chaffing issue recently.
Dont recall any mention of the need for a new loom though......

I had a similar issue - but the wiring was re routed without the need for a new loom . Guess it wasn't too badly hurt as I picked it up within a week of buying the car

An oldie and a goodie... 
Bit of tape was action enough...  2006 D3 finally swapped for a 2016 D4 Graphite in Graphite grey. No mods
