You can phone your local LR Experience Centre and they can book you in as they have access to the LR database. My invite came through within about 4 weeks but that did include Christmas and the New Year.

Landmark my2016 a few faults...
"Well Chuffed" is an expression that I have used often since purchasing my first Disco...a new Landmark earlier this year, I have now driven 9k miles and she has been superb...but...she has now started with a few niggles, that she is going into Marshalls to have looked at on Tuesday...
1/ Adapative Front Lighting System (amber light) ... just started her one morning & it has been blinking ever since
2/ Reversing Camera stopped working, have tried to access the camera settings but nothing happens when I try to enter them, just will not let me access the menu at all.
3/ Back two mesh sunroof blinds will not stay shut...been this way since new (I am not starting naffing around with them myself on a new motor, the dealer needs to correct this), although I will be suprised if they do first time in but remain hopeful !
4/ Now this may or may not be related to my lighting fault, but I have noticed that my pump for the air suspension appears to be running more often, and when I am sitting in traffic I am feeling the suspension "jiggling" trying to adjust itself...is this normal?
I now wonder if I have a suspension levelling issue that is generating a headlight error, because it is not correctly levelling and sending back the right signal, anybody able to shed "light" on this please.
She is booked in for a half day session on Tuesday, so we shall see what happens, but I do hope that she is not starting to play me up and sour what has been a wonderful start to our relationship!
On a positive note, Just back from St Mawes in her and she got plenty of looks & compliments...attached couple of piccies of her on the King Harry Ferry (a few more sections & that ferry could be a bridge/pontoon )
Followed a nice Disco onto the ferry....
Nice view of her from up above...

That is stunning looking.
Makes me all the more pleased with my choice - santorini black, privacy glass & sidesteps.

The rearmost one on mine has been dodgy since I got it, TVLR had it in for two days to replace it and it was fine for about a week but went over a big bump and it shot open I've just left it since Cheers Ian

You'll enjoy the Landrover experience, bet you want to go back and do the full course.
I did the 2 day Lanta certificate, absolutely brilliant, oh and the Landrover experience in Skipton is by far the best place to do it if you have a choice.

Yessir..... Another landmark.
I'm leaving it as close to November as I can feasibly get away with (that's when my sport lease is finished)... Will just have to slug it out in my RRS2 until then

Visit to service at dealers yesterday to fix above issues...
1/ They could not fix the dynamic light fault issue, said they needed 2/3 days with it to get it sorted )..and another week and a half until they can get her in...
2/ Fixed the back two mesh sun screens...so far so good... 8)
3/ Did not fix the rear camera...still not working (should have checked this before I pulled away )
4/ Tested suspension (no fault found) and said jiggling in traffic to self level can be quite normal for it if any load in the rear...
5/ Topped up my adblue... on request.
EDIT: going in next week now...fingers crossed lights get sorted as I have a trip to Lake Kontanz planned the week after 8)

An update... been in again for 2 days, they finally found that a bad wiring harness in the tailgate was stopping the rear camera from working and apparently creating the dynamic lighting fault/warning light...they did temporary repair until wiring harness is available.
The bad news though...they had the windscreen pillar trims off and have scuffed then badly on both sides at the top, and then to top it all, a 4" scratch on the front wheel arch and a slight scratch on rear door
Booked in once again in a weeks time

Yep said something similar! WTF!!! ... they were rushing it last thing on a Friday after having it for 2 full days, and that was the net result, plus parking bays are tight at the dealer, so when it has been standing at the dealer I guess Tom, Dick & Harry have been brushing past it and scratched it!
Service manager said he will put everything right, so fair enough ...although it went in mint and now I feel it has been roughed up somewhat!
