    My21 Animated directional indicators

    Anyone else bought a MY 21 vehicle that’s supposed to have animated directional indicators but can’t work out how to activate them? Should be standard on rdynamic SE and HSE models. You would think pivipro menu for vehicle settings>exterior lights would have the option but I don’t. I can activate adaptive headlight matrix led’s but no setting for the animation on indicators. Checked build sheet and it’s definitely included. Dealer is also stumped.

    Anyone know where the setting is? I’m wondering if LR need to update and enable some software .

    Thanks

    Ed

    I've read on a D5 Facebook group that a software update is required. People were having to wait for the update to be made available but I believe it is available now and your dealer can apply it.

    Will this be available and compatible with all D5’s, I have a 2019 HSE and it’s something I would be interested in 👍

    No, just MY21 onwards. The older D5's don't have the capability.

    Any update from your dealer ? I emailed mine about same issue but haven’t heard anything. Can the software update be done remotely ?

    They sorted it very quickly in the dealership. It appears there is a switch that needs to be set. I got the impression that it was a physical switch (not in cabin) and not something in the software.

    Anyway all working now, they look great

    For anybody that is still waiting for it to be done or is battling with their dealer to get it done, the missing MY21 'Animated Directional Indicators' has an official recall. It's campaign no' N585 on the dealer system.

    Don’t want to rain on your parade, but really? So long as the indicators work, who cares what they do or don’t, in anycase you won’t see them. It’s a bit of flowery p*ss IMHO, but no doubt popular at the school gates.

    I’ve seen them working. On a 21 plate D5.

    Notably, as Darras points out, this was on the school run!

    I rather have a proper set of rear brake lights which fully illuminate the whole of the rear cluster, rather the Mickey Mouse ones which only illuminate an inch or so at the corners.

    There was a post way back, when the D5 launched and the video clearly showed the whole of the cluster lighting up. Think the conclusion was that it was market specific.

    My colleague nearly rear ended me a while back when he was following me home to pick up my bike trailer. He said that he never noticed the brake lights 🙄. Mind you he was in his TVR Tuscan which is very low.

    With regards to the indicators, the amount of idiots that dont use them is mind boggling.(Sorry I don't have a crystal ball, so I don't know where your going, grrrrrrrr).

    I have seen the animated ones on Audi's, and they are a distraction more than anything else. Were not that bright either. I prefer the old fashioned ones which we have now. Mind you each to their own I suppose. If you have payed for it, and not received it I can understand you wanting to have it .

    A bit like Apple and Android carplay a few years ago. LR was charging I think circa £250 for the privalege. It was rolled out for free and the garage was adamant I had to pay, even though I told them it was on the D5 forum and on Facebook, and a bulletin on Topix.

    I asked, don't you guys read your emails, or have a tool box talk in the morning, or a bulletin sheet of the latest changes? Rolling Eyes
