• car refusing to start with App

• My remote climate hasn’t worked since they updated the software because CarPlay kept freezing.
  
  I’m rapidly losing patience with Land Rovers....

• Should I get an XC90?

• I thought the XC90 was a good car (aside from the terrible engines and touchscreen) but just completely lacked the ‘x-factor’. Don’t know what that really means but I expect it’s something sub ...

• Good bye and good luck

• I am partial to a Volvo and I do think their interiors look fantastic these days. That being said, I’m one of the few that found the legendarily comfortable seats in the S60 to give me the ...

• 2.0 SD4 or 3.0 SDV6

• The SD4 was my first experience of a D5 and the main reason why I initially hated the new Disco. It just doesn’t suit the car, from the very evident vibration at idle to the delay between pressing t ...

• Tyre Pressure sensors

• Quite a few have had the same problem. 50psi cures it.

• IS6 engine - any good?

• Even the 2.0 petrol is a swift enough machine. Can’t say I’ve towed but even fully loaded up a hill it pulls strongly and 50mph arrives surprisingly quickly. It’s definitely more flexible than t ...

• Service Pack Quote

• £1800 is the quote for three services for mine. This spans over 6 years so there is zero point in this at all as the car goes back after four years.
  
  What I have just learned is that the service i ...

• Slovakian Discos

• Build to delivery for mine was three weeks, so add a bit on to that for a short stop in Solihull!

• Slovakian Discos

• As I understood it the whole line has moved. Can’t see why the commercial variant would be any different. I initially saw it as a downside but mine is definitely better put together than my Dad’s ...

• Slovakian Discos

• Interesting. Maybe, as mentioned, it’s because they’ve had a couple of years of development now and so have ironed out a few of the issues. Fingers crossed!

• Just wondering how people are getting on with their Slovakian built Discos and whether anyone is noticing a drop or (hopefully) an improvement in build quality and reliability? Anyone had any major pr ...

• How’s the 2.0 petrol engine?

• D4 was definitely 825w on the top spec Lux. To be fair the one on the D5 is loud enough and at full volume still retains clarity and control - no distortion or vibrations - whereas the D4 used to suff ...

• Interior trim colours

• Yes it is! You can have it with the red piping or blue. I went with blue and with the Portofino Blue exterior it looks fantastic!
