Broken already!!

Hi all

New toy the forum and to the world of D4 ownership having upgraded from a discovery sport 3 months ago, unfortunately, after having a lovely 3 month honeymoon I have been unable to start it and am now on a train to get the 100 miles back home 😂😂

RAC reckon an electronic fault in either the brake switch or gearbox, so will let you know how it goes !!

Was having a lovely time as well……

Nice part of the world, Kirby Lonsdale... spent a lot of time there as a kid.

Brake switch on these beasts is a frequent cause of seemingly bigger issues.

Kirby Lonsdale is a nice area, I’m from Kendal so know the area well. Spent lots of time on Underly Estates (not at the school!!).

I would give that battery a real good check and even then would never rule it out, even if you’re convinced it’s good!!

First thing I'd check before any of those would be the engine earth strap. Plenty on here about that if you use the search function.

Good luck, all part of the LR ride...

Strangely the rear suspension has discharged all its air so that’s something else 🤣

Doesn’t the suspension having dropped one area. Also imply flat battery?
