USB Media Port issues...

Anyone else seeing issues with the media ports (USB’s under arm rest / cubby) ? I.E. Power turning off and on randomly, not recognising phones as media devices, seeing a phone as a media device then dropping the connection etc? My cables are good and work fine in the 12v socket with a USB charger. M...

Re: Rear camera / parking sensor clash

Re: Rear camera / parking sensor clash

@darvus... my car is still at the dealer. It’s being stubborn in taking on board it’s software reflash. LR really are not good at software updates. Each and every single module needs to be checked and updated. There’s no ‘Update All’ option. Dealers have to spend crazy amounts of time checking and u...

Re: Rear camera / parking sensor clash

I get this all the time now. Seems worse since the ICTP Phase 3 Update too. It’s in tomorrow to have the software all updated again and this is one of the (many) issues I’ve reported.

Re: Issues with Discovery pls?

The Discovery 3L TDV6 has oil dilution issues like the 2L TD4 Discovery Sport.

The 2L TD4 in the Discovery does not as its exhaust system is a different design.

Re: Issues with Discovery pls?

Only the diesels suffer as far as I know. LR site will have technical specs for MPG. Real world though, no idea. But short journeys will kill any dreams of decent MPG in a 2 tonne car ;)

Re: Issues with Discovery pls?

In Malta we do a lot of short distances and not many motorways. Thanks for any help or feedback. David David, get a petrol engined D5. Will be much better for island life. Diesel MPG will be low anyway as they are designed for long cruising runs for best efficiency. Mechanically the D5 is in my exp...

Re: Oil Dilution Issue

Get a petrol. Modern EU6 diesels really don’t work well for constant short journeys. You’ll be faced with DPF filter issues unless you can do regular long runs at DPF regen speeds.
