My guess is the tracking hasn't been done correctly, and/ or your steering alignment sensor needs calibrating?
Did the ABS light ect come on too? and terrain response not work?Disco4 MY16 SDV6 Landmark Black

The speedo can be set to give a warning when a certain speed is reached, usually a “bong”, I have never looked at the read out when mine goes off as it is set at 75mph It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

The tracking was done by a guy who was bang up to date. It was on a RR machine which is far in front of the Hunter. He went out of his way to correct everything then gave me the read out
I am wandering if when my tyres were done my air suspension has been rectified
Never had this safety speed on before

You need to go into the settings menu, and using the steering wheel buttons navigate to the speed warning, and turn it off. My guess is someone has been meddling and turned it on!

I had mine 4 wheel aligned in July 18 and via the IId tool put it into tight tolerance mode. When the job was done and was about to set off mine did the same. I used the tool to clear the faults and it went away (And has never returned)The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

Max speed 80
In mine it means my wallet is about to burn my pants, (V8)2005 Land Rover D3, 4.4L V8, Maya Gold Metallic
1966 Scout 800, 196 cu.in.
1975 Scout II, 392 cu.in.
My thought was it's been left in tight tolerance mode after tracking was done, but IIRC it displays "not in customer mode" when you start the car ... at least it does on a D4.
