    2019 Discovery SDV6 SE Fuji White

    Newbie from Australia

    G'Day

    I will be picking up my SE 5 seater Discovery 5 in a week or so. It has the Drive Pack, Capability Plus Pack and the Advanced Tow Assist plus a few other options like 360 degree cameras, heated seats, keyless entry and start and 20" wheels. It is interesting how the different equipment levels vary from country to country. We don't even have the commercial version here.

    Previously I have had a Terracan and two Grand Cherokees. I have wanted a Disco since the 3 was announced in 2004. I drove a 3 for two weeks in Namibia in 2011 and totally fell in love.

    It will be used around town and also as an Outback tourer so I will be busy kitting it out over the next few months. Auxiliary battery and tyre compressor are ready to go.

    I hope to learn a lot here and hopefully contribute.

    Cheers

    Hi discofans.
    D5 is my 4th disco. I had D2, D3 and the last one was D4. Im not sure that D5 is the best choice. Its so much diffrent than D4... Ive got Si6 version and I think the engine and ZF gearbox are the best parts of the new disco.
    So... Best regards from Poland.

    Activity key wrist band not working

    Hi all,
    This is my first post so please bear with me.
    I purchased a second hand genuine activity key/band to use with my 2017 Discovery HSE Luxury.
    After following the instructions I can’t get the car to lock using the activity key.

    Any suggestions on what to do and does the activity key use batteries that could need changing.

    does the car have the activity key module? it is not a standard feature and needs to be fitted in the tailgate and then programmed by someone who has access to the JLR software for it to work. Just buying an Activity Key won't do anything. I looked at it but the cost worked out overt £500 fitted so I didn't bother.

    Hi,

    I am looking to buy a D5. Currently driving an F-Pace but feels a bit cramped inside it.

    I read some stories about engines blowing up. The V6 as well a 4-line.

    Is any of the engines a safer bet ? Is the td4 or sd4 better ?

    Looking at a SD4. Dealer insisted to take the 3yr warranty,
    started to make me think he smelled trouble with the car. Shocked

    Is there a poll on the engine failure ?

    Is it every engine eventually ore on every thousand???
