Contact Details

Can anyone help me with a contact email address for Land Rover engineering contacts.

I have tried directing my questions via the Australian contact center and they just hopeless they keep sending me scripted responses.

The question I am looking for answers on is around the SLS system and how it handles high tow ball weights. The dealers have no clue other than to say don't use a WDH. I accept this and I don't use one but the old engineer in me wants to know how the SLS manages to handle this.

I have no contact details but once tried emailing the UK but only get referred to the Oz customer assistance again.

Are you wanting to know only how the suspension levels or in-depth info about trailer stability assist or other features? If its only levelling, then the suspension ecu raises or lowers the air volume in respective air-springs until the height sensor sends the voltage indicating that the corner is at the desired height. Hence the rear springs get more air and the fronts less when there's extra load on the rear, be it in the cargo area or on the tow-ball.

I understand the basic principles of the SLS. I was hoping to get a deeper understanding and info on any testing they have done.

To be honest, I would expect that would all be commercially sensitive information, and you will struggle to get it officially.
