United Kingdom 2008 Discovery 3 3.0 SDV6 GS Manual Santorini BlackDiscovery 3
Engine stalls

For the past couple of months, the car has occasionally suffered from a stall.

Usual scenario. I go to start the car, which is fine, I then select drive and it hardly moves before it stalls. You can’t rev the engine, it simply won’t let you do that. No warning lights, nothing.

I then have to press the start button as if to stop it, then press it gain and it starts fine and drives thereafter.

I have had it into the main dealer, but they can’t replicate the fault nor find out what’s wrong.

Any ideas?

Is the parking brake set to engage automatically? Try manually disengaging it first then setting off. Might give an indication of where the problem is.

It happens when the brake is manually released. It’s just the way I do it. I then select drive and sometimes it moves a yard or so before stopping. Other times it doesn’t move at all. I’ve had it happen twice, first time it didn’t move, second time I’d move about a cars length and then it stopped.
