Warning lights
Just had x4 new tyres and had tracking done on 05 discovery 3 on leaving the ats loads of warning lights have come on lowered suspension amber brake amber suspension fault within a few minutes of driving it's not the pump as it's quite new and can hear it working when you first start!! Once the warnings come on car lowers and it's bumpy any ideas
Sounds like you steering angle needs re calibrating. Quite common for car to drop to bump stops when it's not set right. You will need something like an IID tool to reset the angle.
It's well worth buying a tool that can read and reset your codes. It will save you a fortune in garage fees. I can assure you that owning a D3 will mean a lot of code reading and resetting
Just ask anyone on here

Ok thanks so they must of done something whilst doing the tracking?
yes... but not wrong.....doing the tracking.. aligning.... mechanical ....that is what you asked for
on the D3 the alignment of the wheels has to be spot on with the steering angle sensor... and can only aligned AFTER the mechanical wheel align work..

Probably have to take it to a garage then do you think and thanks for reply
yes, and i think not a standard garage/workshop, but it needs to have the proper LR tools..
The suggestion of buying a IID from Gap https://www.gap-diagnostic.com/ is quite a good one looks expensive, till you see what LR will charge you
sometimes they show up here on the forum, pre used... around 300/325 gbp but then you have to buy a transfer fee...Best regards

isn't that obvious? the angle sensor was aligned in line with the wheels...
now the wheels are aligned, significant different than they were... seems obvious to me that the angle sensor is way out now...
1 + 1 to me Best regards

I find it surprising that you have owned it for 5 years and today is your first day on the forum
I don't think I had mine for a week before I was on here.
