Follow me home lights
No sure if that's what they are called but I've just found out that if you press the headlight button on the key fob twice (within a short period; let's say 1 sec) the reversing lights come on (in addition to the headlights)!
Quite handy really. Until now I knew that you could program the length of time he headlights stayed on for but did not know that you could control the reversing lights.

Just tried it on mine and it worked - no faultmate's been near my D4....... although I might want the timed/remote climate option adding in the non too distant future

Look up forum member BBS SPY on here.
Faultmate is a diagnostic system for latter LR vehicles including D3/4. Comes in simple fault code format, or all singing/dancing version that lets you change all the car's settings.
Fairy lights is a Faultmate issue - Wiggs or Geoff on here have the kit and can play around with your car for you.
You'll need to enquire about if this works on D4'sTony
