You pressure washed or polished recently? Do the sensors look clean and free of wax or polish? |

I had the same with mine over winter but never got to the bottom of it. Dealer kept saying no fault found and when it did it in the forecourt they didn't have anyone that could have a quick look while the fault was there. It eventually cleared up after the cold weather passed but I did check them at the time and there was no dirt or ice build up to be causing it. I think Landlord had something similar with his My10. Dont know if he ever got it resolved though. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

My rear parking sensors stays on continually after the car has been washed, must be cheap units (theres a supprise) that are not sealed properly and the damp can get into them. Jeremy Clarkson summed up the range rover perfectly on one of the top gear shows when he said the range rover was the best design and an Icon but was built with the mind set of "that will do", so it will work, for a little while then will undoubetly fail. My car has been into the dealer more times in the last 4 monyths without anything really being resolved than any of the BMW's i have had over the last ten years. with susspension noise, parking sensors, ride hight sensor, mirrors going mad and pointing sky wards. If i ran my business in the same way landrover does with its dealer network I would be out of business in a month. And If the people that worked for me where as incompitent as some of the service managers then I would sack them on the spot.

Hey 4 wheel, no its was the bushes and now it is the excesive movement while cornering warning i am geeting, something to do with the coils, but Landrover wont let Town & County change them out until they have extensively tested all possibilities, will end up costing them a fotune in labout charges alonee probably a lot more thena the costs of the coils. Also because they have had my car since thursday and will have it over the weekend I wasnt going to be fobbed of with a freelander and they have hired a new FFRRvouge for me to use while they have my car, so there is that cost too. They couldnt manage a up in a brewery 2010 Alaska white 3.6TDi v8, heated steering wheel, Ipod connection, Aribica extended leather, Digital TV, voice activation, privacy glass, Dynamic pack
