| Another interesting tidbit about the D3 |
|
Came across this in some technical data I was reading on the D3:
Crash Unlocking
When the ignition switch is in position II, if a crash that triggers the air bags
occurs the CJB unlocks all of the doors. After 3 seconds, the CJB unlocks the
doors again, in case a lock button is pressed during the crash, by flailing limbs for
example. The CJB is informed of the crash by a status message from the
restraints control module, on the medium speed CAN bus, which changes from
'no crash' to 'crash'. The CLS will also perform crash unlocking if a 'no crash'
status message is not received every 500 milliseconds.
The vehicle cannot be centrally locked again until the status message has been
reset to 'no crash' by the restraints control module
I just thought that was yet another thoughtful touch. Thanks Land Rover!

And apparently the air bags will go off if the D3 detects an imminent roll over - side slopes included.
According to LRE, not tested this myself of course

Hi Simon,
This doesn't sound right......an airbag will deploy AND deflate in less than 250ms...considering a vehicle would probably take around 1 to 2 seconds to roll over, it would seem a bit pointless. 
Or am I missing something? 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue

The curtain airbags are different, they stay inflated to give some protection in the event of multiple rollover scenarios. Manual refers I think.... Cheers
