2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 HSE Auto Waitomo Grey

Picked up new car Saturday morning

Hi All

Been away from Discovery for about 2 years after going down the Range rover Sport then Defender utility route (staying on both those forums)
When 6 weeks ago we decided to go down the Discovery route again as the car ticks all the good boxes

Ppicked up Disco 12 plate HSE from an authorized dealer , but had nothing but problems which resulted in car being handed back and me picking another motor (and spending more money)

Well this Saturday arrived and in the morning picked up this all happy

7 hours later on Saturday evening all went pete tong and ended up leaving on

Vehicle was throwing a right fit with warning lights then blank screens no locking then locking then alarms

Now at dealers
either I pick lemons or just unlucky "Its as convincing as a Giraffe with sunglass trying to get into a Polarbears only golf club "

I am sure it will be a quick fix and will soon be back with you again.

I was going to say could it be as simple as the battery being low (as they are not keen on that), what with it not getting used much whilst at the dealers and then if you were playing with the toys and setting things up once home, but I guess the AA would have spotted that. Andy

Is there some reason behind this question? Is there an issue with D4's without fridges?

I think there is a recall for those with fridges, so the assumption was the problem could have possibly been caused had you had a fridge Andy
