Stop start system!
If I want to turn the engine off I know where the button is.
It does annoy me if I forget to turn it off.
When you do turn it off you get a yellow warning on the dash.D4 2016 Landmark, Waitomo Grey.

Never seen the point of the FBH. Never felt I needed it, when it does work produces horrible fumes and stench.
Causes so many questions on here-just pull the fuse.

Got to go with the voice control what a complete crock of Even if you wanted to use it you couldn't as it never gets what you say right.Stephen

Dashboard Clock.....isn't practical.....a clock is meant to be looked at & if it can't be read at a glance - useless.
I can't see that a software revision couldn't have given what works well in FL2....an anologue clock.
Btw......the voice activation is a usable feature if you study the command possibilities...I printed off the pages & tried.....it's what I've got so I give it a try & use it....you shouldn't keep "Kylie" locked up in the dashboard....BREXIT - done properly.
Right now ...We need Government - not Politics

Jag XK-but sadly no DIPSTICK...HUGE design fault
FL2 has DIPSTICK..."real comfort in rear seats"
VW Golf wondermobile (?)..has real DIPSTICK

There's a saying if it isn't broke don't fix it, Landrover just took the dip stick away why is beyond me but at least you still get to top up screen wash and see the coolant level lol
Just another attempt by Land Rover to make sure you take it them to change your oil at 5 times the price of DIY!!
Whilst an enthusiastic DIY'er will probably have a go, I suspect the percentage that don't is quite high because it's a tad more complex.
I find the voice activation really good compared to the system in my Van. I'm often seen swearing stuck in traffic on the A40 at my dashboard, as it gets the name wrong for the 10th time whilst trying to phone a customer, when it finally gets the name right it then doesn't understand the Yes to confirm Discovery 4 HSE
