Going into the dealer for the Suspension Knocking and dust

Hi,

Car going to the dealer tomorrow morning for the suspension knocking ( http://rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic5669.html ) and the dust build up ( http://rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic5478.html?highlight=dust+build ).

For the first one, they mention that it is a know problem but that depending of the vin of the car, it will be a warrenty job or not.
For the second one, they are not aware of any problem.

Will let you know more once my baby is in there hands... TDV6 HSE 07YM, Stornoway Grey

And first update, we have the suspension bushes worn out! New part order for change tomorrow... I understand that is part of the solution figure out by members The Doc and Hillendale ; and NOT Voice of Reason ( http://rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic5669.html ).

Did ask about the DVD 105 patch file 3 update mumble thingy but the guy was not aware of it. Are they updating the ECU automaticly or not??? TDV6 HSE 07YM, Stornoway Grey

And, it won't be back for the week-end Big Cry

They are still unhappy about the noise (which is I believe good) and are digging into it to fix it. As they phrase it: "We won't let it win!"

Week one: so car has been with the dealer for a week now. They have changed severals parts of the suspension, stearing, dynamic stability control...and the noise is still there. In the meantime, they have received another car for the same problem.

Situation: an engineer from LandRover will come next week to inspect the car. In the meantime, I will have my car bacl today. They have done the solution preconise by the Doc and Hillendale but obviously problem still present. TDV6 HSE 07YM, Stornoway Grey

Hats off to your dealer in persisting with trying to find a solution. Most would simply hand the car back and wait for the next complaint! WINNER - 2008 Outstanding Contribution

I agree with you. They have been very professional with daily updates as well.

Now, let's hope that the LR engineer find the solution. TDV6 HSE 07YM, Stornoway Grey
