Sorry to post a new topic but I have realised the misfuel yellow part is visible in my fuel neck. I have just bought the car second hand. Any idea where I can find the misfuel reset device and what it looks like? Thanks

Is this always in the glovebox ? Can't imagine the previous owner would have thrown it away.

Have you looked in the 2 storage boxes by the load bay ? Or inside the panel where the wheel changing kit is stored ? Or inside the opposite panel where the tow bar is stored ? Failing all of that - I'd look in the large box underneath the work bench, beside the garage door of the house of the chap who previously owned the car. Disco 4 TDV6HSE

or ask another owner to borrow theirs! A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.

Would be quicker to go into LR dealers and ask them to re-set it. Has it definatley tripped, can you take and post a picture down the filler neck, Icould then nip out into the car park and check and tell you if it is the same or diffrent to mine. MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

Big drill 
If you are low on fuel call out LR assistance. I would also be having words with the dealer you brought the car from.
Character look what happens to cars with big stickers on the fuel cap, they still get miss fueled MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange
