    Question about power shutdown for DIY service

    Thanks again for replies. No third party apps. No sentry mode. No pre-conditioning set. Heating ventilation shut off. The reason I mention passing cars and pedestrians is if the car although "asleep" still has peripheral sensors active so trying to imply nothing should be disturbing the cars...

    Question about power shutdown for DIY service

    Thanks for replies but with everything turned off as suggested, and car parked in an enclosed space at home, no passing cars or pedestrians anywhere near, I still loose 15 to 20 miles a day. Its as if the car never goes to sleep and every so often, about once every 5 mins, I can hear the cars...

    Question about power shutdown for DIY service

    Is it safe to leave the 12 volt battery connected and pull the main battery plug situated under the rear seat. My thinking is when leaving the car for a period of time, say at an airport, to reduce battery drain isolating the main battery but still leaving 12 volts would mean being able to lock...

    This also happened to me yesterday twice for the first time, LR -DM, 3000 miles. On motorway cruising and screen froze and displayed the P sign inplace of speed, then after about 5 mins screen went out. Had no idea of speed etc very alarming. Carried on and about 10 mins later screen came on...

    Aftermarket Suspension with OEM Height and Softer Ride

    Very much looking forward to hearing your results although it might be a while before I could come up with the redies as buying in from the USA could add another 20% tax on top of a fairly hefty price tag to start with when they hit the UK shores!

    Aftermarket Suspension with OEM Height and Softer Ride

    Have been looking at this thread for a while now and would love a more compliant ride but as all after market suppliers seem to start with "lower ride height" which puts me and many others off. So excuse my ignorance on this matter but when fitting a replacement set up why can't we just fit the...
