Neat solution but bet the battery doesn't like it, particularly when all the heated seats get switched on too!

Another benefit of going from a disco 3 to 4 that I never knew about. Excellent thanks for the update. Should read the manual one day

Charlie, your profile still shows you have a D3. There was me thinking I was missing something in my D3! I must learn to look at the section of posts (ie D4 in this case)2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

Do you have a D3 or a D4? Your profile says 3 but car's behaviours suggests 4.
Too slow.

What's more annoying is when the car switches itself off automatically - not stop/start - when it thinks you want it to; ie epb on, in P and seatbelt off. PIA2014MY Discovery
