| New Suspension mode - Dragster |
|
I have an undocumented Suspension mode  DRAGSTER
The rear of the car is @ off road height and the front is slightly higher than access mode and all this is when the switch is set to Normal height, and still getting messages of suspension raising slowly and suspension will raise when system cooled 
Car going to dealer Monday will post the outcome or get two V8's fitted in line and go down to Santa Pod. Now theres an idea!!!

3 weeks down the line and car is still @ the Dealers they have tried 3 new ECUs non of which will communicate with the car? i have sent a letter of rejection to the dealer, whom has passed it on to Yorkshire Trading Standards to resolve !! Hope this focuses their minds on the Job
As regards a loan car started off in freelander Sport, but its like driving a roller skate with solid tyres, have now had HSE for 2 weeks getting too lazy now 8) Auto box a damn good piece of kit, have now put another spanner in the works as i would like to go away with caravan within next couple of weeks and guess what they dont have a disco with a towbar 
Will update ASAP DB

How old was your car when they offered to replace it ?
Seems people are getting new vehicles with all these compressor problems... be interested to know how old or how many miles a car has to reach before they refuse to replace.

Just in case ya know... I am NOT tempting fate if your listening up there !

There are quite a few CU's with badging. Just buy the 17" wheels and we will be happy.

 Finally got the car back after 5 weeks they fitted (eventually)a new ECU, height sensors and attended to some wiring issues.
But have still got a lag when changing from 1st to 2nd gear only  anyone else with a manual g-box experienced this. DB
