• Th List is Growing! New To Me, Faults ...

• The issues on my new to me 67' plate HSE LUX are growing... I'm beginning to regret the purchase. Well over 40 grand and a pretty dismal list of issues...
  
  But I'm an LR fan so I should have known b ...

• Water in Rear Light Cluster ??????

• To update on this.
  
  The light unit is 100% faulty. It's now flickering on and off / dimming on and off.
  
  I've fallen foul of LR build quality AGAIN.
  
  Does anyone know of this issue and will it b ...

• Water in Rear Light Cluster ??????

• I often had a little moisture in my D4 headlights, and the dealer said it was normal and to ignore - I did, and all seemed ok during ownership.
  
  My, new to me, D5 seems to have a particularly alarmi ...

• Door Trim - Protruding (Image Included)

• I bought an approved used D5 and it's as new. Very good condition. However, I hear a small squeak when closing / opening the front doors. Upon looking, there's a piece of trim protruding. I will conta ...

• Pulls to the left.....

• Thank you! Perhaps I'll stress less about it and see if having 21's on makes a difference, out of interest.

• Pulls to the left.....

• I'll check the tyres. Interesting you've had the wandering effect.
  
  I've bought a set of 21"s for winter / snow tyres and will see if the same thing occurs.
  
  Forgive me, nearside - you also m ...

• Pulls to the left.....

• I've noticed my 'new to me' Disco 5 pulls to the left, quite severely. I've come from a Disco 4 which didn't do it at all.
  
  My 5 is on 22" wheels if that makes a difference. It's an early MY an ...

• Well it’s gone

• I keep telling myself I'll leave the brand... but never do! I've had a Disco Sport, Evoque, Disco 4, now a 5. Wife has a FFRR and her family are LR mad with classics etc. I can't seem to shake it.

• Insurance!

• Many thanks, from what I can see it has no tracker! Whoops. I'll have to tell my insurance co.
  
  I'm hoping it doesn't affect the premium too much.
  
  I'm guessing the tracker was an optional extra ...

• Snow tyres / best sized wheels???

• Car arrived and snow chains are ready to be picked up. I'll have 21" snow tyres / wheels on and so I got the Konig K Summit XXL K77's, so they fit on the front of the wheel like a spider, rather ...

• Snow tyres / best sized wheels???

• Out of interest... I'm confused by the fact that the 20" rim takes a 255 and the 21" rim takes a 275 tyre.
  
  Do I have this right? What's with the different widths?
