2016MY Air Suspension issues
2016 Landmark with around 7k. Last few weeks have noticed that when press to lower to access mode, vehicle raised to off road setting. Thought I had hit it wrong, pressed again and it lowered.
Took great care in doing this today and definitely went up instead of down - pressed again and lowered - drove about a mile, parked, pressed for access level and it worked first time hooray! Exited car, locked it with door button and car raised itself to off road height!!!
Car booked into dealer for this, poor heater performance and jammed rear headrests to be looked at, but just wondered if anyone else has encountered this issue? It has been intermittent and assume electrical?

Car a truck dealer for 2 days and tell me that diagnosis shows no issue with suspension and heater within expected parameters. Heater at min 26 to warm car! Suspension still not doing what it is told! Peter Vardy happy to take it back for 4 days to check it given intermittent. Anybody else encountered these problems?2016 D4 landmark in Yulong White

If you can get it to do it on request video it on your phone, then when they find no fault you can show them the vid and say "try harder".

No problem with air suspension.
Internal temperature have a look for the thread on it relating to 16MY vehicles. Try putting car interior heating into search.

So they managed to put fault code reader on it and there are no faults. Well done them.
And are totally ignorant of a LR tech bulletin about the temperature issue. Honestly 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

Hi
I've had a couple of similar glitches with the air suspension - Oct 2015 car with 22k on clock.
However - coming from a lifetime of Defenders, it hasn't really bothered me to date as long as it eventually does as it supposed too!
I've had no issues with the temp - I just think it's a big space to heat and being a diesel needs longer to warm through. Still heats up faster than the missus Fiesta ST!Nick
