Richard,
I know they upped the top speed by 5mph and presumed, but perhaps I'm wrong, that the remap increased the performance in other respects,perhaps they just raised the limiter?
Still only 0.2 sec slower to 60mph than the V8 and I guess most of that is lost at the top end as it takes off quicker which is generally more important to me at roundabouts to save embarrassments. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Mike, there was an article in the press over the weekend about an Asda that accidentally moved the decimal point on their self service pumps....... 60 or so customers managed to fill up their tanks for 12.9p per ltr!!! That would make 5.0 ownership more acceptable!

Have a 3.0 MY11 SDV6 engine at the moment in a new Disco and to be honest it is not a patch on the 2010 TDV8 that i have in the RRS and saves just 2-3 MPG at best round town and no diff on a run. The 3.0 also sounds tractor like compared to the TDV8. 2014 5.0SC AB

Gone 5.0 SC

Apparently the and i had to check on LR's website, the sport is a little quicker than the disco...dont know if its because the disco is a brick, heavier or a different tune...but the specs do show a difference!

ok we are only talk 0.2  Mike

TDv6 OR SDV6 choice on the Disco , Disco is lighter in weight by a fair amount over the RRS 2014 5.0SC AB

Im sorry the RRS is 2535kg and the discovery 4 is 2583...so the rrs is lighter by nearly 50kg on a hse Mike

2014 Facelift Discovery

Sorry must be wrong then , but 50 Kilos is nothing in terms of the engine SDV6 V the TDV8

Odd how my book here shows Kerb Weight of 2675 kg on my RRS  2014 5.0SC AB

Gone 5.0 SC

maybe the weight is lower on the 2011my...or the book isnt correct (ive certainly been there)

Next time im around people in the know ill ask... Mike

Is the RRS not mounted onto a disco chassis with another set of rails and X-members ? IE Double Chassis 2014 5.0SC AB
