Multiple warning lights on 57 plate D3 HSE
I have a 57 plate D3 HSE which has been well looked after and lightly used but we have persistent faults with various warning lights coming on - we have had them checked out repeatedly, sometimes there are minor faults with the actual sensor but often no physical faults with the car, no battery faults and it has been reset several times.
Our list of faults so far:
Electronic parking brake - no fault found
Suspension height failure - no fault found
Special programs off - no fault found
Low coolant level - no fault found
Emergency brake assist - assumed sensor fault
Various engine warning faults
I'm totally sick of it and thinking of changing it for something else - but problem is I love it when it works, and would ideally like to preplace it with a newer model, so trying to figure out if these are common issues with Discos or whether I've just ended up with a crap one!
Any thoughts please??
Thanks!

If you dont have a fault code reader, i would recommend getting one. Do you know what fault codes are being logged when the warning messages/ lights popup on the dash?

Have you tried replacing brake pedal switch and brake bulbs (loads on here about this)
Also re-calibrate steering angle sensor
Possibly fuel filter is happens under acceleration

Rear brake bulbs or brake pedal switch.

It would help if you described when these issues start and how you can cause them to occur.
Does this happen at start up? Does it happen upon hard acceleration? Does it occur after a short drive? Does it happen as soon as you touch the brake pedal? Does the problem disappear if you switch off and restart only to recur again?
Give as much detail as possible because there's a number of different issues which can cause the symptoms you're experiencing.
And another thing, fill out your profile with your vehicle details too otherwise there's too much guesswork involved. Mods:
Front Fogs + Halos
FBH Remote Control
The 1st Ever RRS Modded Grill
Garmin Nuvi + D4 Surround + Reversing Camera.
D4 Steering Wheel.
Rear Boot Spoiler.
Twin Brake Lights.
Wing Mirror Indicator Repeaters.
Long Roof Rails

I'm not scared, I'm outta here.

Brake pedal switch - had most of those when mine needed replacingThe Father wove the skein of your life a long time ago. Go and hide in a hole if you wish, but you won't live one instant longer. Your fate is fixed. Fear profits a man nothing.
