worth a try mate as you know 1 problem with these cars can throw up other problems which might not be the cause

It sounds like your car isn't "going to sleep"

Any number of things could prevent this including a faulty taILgate switch.  RRS gone
Audi SQ5...Gone Audi Q7 S-Line 240 3.0TDI Gone
Audi A6 Allroad Sport 270 3.0TDI

Ok so it could be the faulty tailgate switch that they haven't picked up on which could be triggering the vehicle not to go to sleep.

What would you suggest to do?

They've got the vehicle back with them now and are getting a specialist to take a look at the vehicle who will try find the problem.

They have given me a brand new Freelander in the meanwhile, shall I let them crack on and not mention anything until they come back to me or advise them of this, as it really isn't my problem.

I think there actually giving up on everything now and look into a settlement or another vehicle.

What do you think>?

if it was me i would tell them to open the switch up if its corroded inside then replace the switch with all what you have done to the car id stick with it i was the same as you i nearly give up on the car and felt like taking a hammer to it but then i found the problem and touch wood nothing since

Land Rover have called and advised they have now changed the upper tailgate switch, the Sat NAv itself, The bluetooth phone, the module under the seat, the dvd player and also a new Amplifier.

Fingers crossed when they drop it off tomorrow it all runs fine!

It wont start? SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

It didn't start this morning !!!!!

They have replaced the sat nav unit and module, phone connection, new stereo and a new amplifier.

I received a call from the dealer principal earlier who has advised they will get the car to another dealer as they have more experienced technicians.

Lets see what happens !

i take it they did replace the uppertailgate switch id check if i was you

It's a sad state of affairs when a main dealer can't fix a car

Happens to me all the time

They advised the rear upper tailgate switch was fine and didnt require replacing.

Once the car didn't start last week they've said this is there last attempt at a different dealer and they have a list of faults which they are going to go through one by one they also said it 'could' be the upper tailgate switch.

They were made aware of this last week but chose not to replace and said it was fine.

ARGRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Lets see what happens when I get the car back!

Mmm sounds all too familar. I have pm'd you again. No resolution in sight on mine either. It failed again yesterday.
 SWMBO owns this car I get to drive occasionally
