    Disco switching off when home

    On the AU forum a member notices his car switching off automatically when he parks it at home. Sounds a little like the "Driver exit" feature but he mentions he does not unlock his seatbelt which would be the trigger for "Driver exit". He uses stop/start. Any ideas?

    Mine sort of shuts down after a short while if I select park. But that happens anywhere (I lay my hat) Victor Meldrew

    His is in D, he stops and foot firmly on the brake while the seat belt is still on. The car shuts off, gearbox goes to park and the gear selector goes down. He says it is always when in the same place at home.

    What puzzles me is that he tested it but it didn't turn off initially, he moved forward by 30cm or so then it did. As GPS in a car is not that accurate I doubt if it is anything to do with the car knowing where it is.

    I've already asked if someone is playing with the remote app, but that's not the case.

    Not experienced that. But then I just hit stop when I arrive home. Does it do it all the time or just when he has the sat nav on to navigate home. I will leave mine on a little while to see what happens.

    His does it all the time, No sat nav used, no home location set (intentionally).

    I tried replicating this in mine but I couldn't even get it to do the "Driver exit" switch off by unclipping the seat belt.
