Oh well another weekend without my Disco, just how long does it take for Landrover Tech and Dealer to fix a problem, nearly 2 weeks now. All I hear when I phone is: LR have asked us to check this and that, but no cure as yet. By close of day this Monday they will have had it for 80 working hours, I wonder just how many hours it has been worked on in reality. I wonder if I was paying and it was not a warrenty job, it would have been sorted by now.

Well dealers have had the Disco for 2 and a bit weeks now, they gave me a call today to say they had a LR technician visit them yesterday, who told them that the problem with my car was normal, so that means the dealers cannot spend more time trying to fix it. LR technician has the last say. The dealer has suggested I contact LR customer care to see if there is a way forward. PM sent to our Pete.
So I assume everybody's Discovery 4 vibrates at idle. Rev engine to 800 rpm or more and is smooth, let drop to 750rpm (idle speed) you get a shudder then the vibration starts. Funny my other 2 discovery's did not do this, nor their demo model I tried to compare, must just be a my Discovery 4 benefit 
Oh well picking the car up in a hour or so, keeping it at the dealer for so long is a great way of keeping the mileage down
Why do we put ourselves through this agony, if it was a computer you would bin it and try any other make, trouble is if I bin this Discovery I would only go and buy another one  masacist springs to mind.

Get your dealer to check the vacuum engine mounts and make sure the vacuum pipes are not blocked and the mounts get good vacuum at idle.
