The noise at full throttle. It sounds somewhat artificial. 2021 P400e Autobiography

With a bit of a clean, I love it more…

Managed to get almost 700 miles out of my first tank of fuel - this was from a mixture of local trips (mainly on electric) and three longer trips. My wife is delighted with this news as I only got about 400-450 miles out of a tank on my older Volvo PHEV. I've not pointed out to my wife that the fuel tank on the RRS is 90ltrs where the Volvo only had a 60ltr tank and therefore the MPG on the RRS is only very slightly better.

I'm annoyed at constantly having "Initialising" at the end of charge cycles on my 3-pin plug charger. I don't really want to go through the expense of getting a faster charger as I won't get the benefit from it (I always charge overnight). I have a genuine JLR 3-pin charger on the way in the hope this will make it better. I doubt it though. Probably a good reason why JLR don't supply granny cables as standard.

Also a bit annoyed at the sat nav maps not having updates OTA. 2021 P400e Autobiography

Swapping to a genuine JLR branded 3-pin charger seems to have solved the charging/initialising problem.

At least on the first charging (battery was at 99% before plugging this one in). I'll continue to monitor this. 2021 P400e Autobiography

You should have received one with the car, I had a granny charger and charging cable with mine when I picked it up as a new car.  2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

Nope, not for me. The car (and new ones from what I read) come with a Type 2 cable only - for a three-pin you have to buy one separately.

I asked when I bought mine (approved used) if a 3-pin charger was included and I got told "No". I therefore kept my current cable when I traded in my old Volvo T8. Land Rover then decided they'd keep the supplied Type 2 cable (which I was fine with, I have my own one). 2021 P400e Autobiography

Looks like you were!

Mode 3 cables are provides with the vehicles. Mode 2 (granny cables) are an optional extra.

Ironically, I can't find out how to actually by JLR granny cables on the Land Rover website. 2021 P400e Autobiography

Just noticed that I have the gesture tailgate.

It's temperamental though and takes a lot of foot waggling to get it to open close - certainly not the smooth operation I've seen on a few videos.

Might be something for LR to look at if I get back to them for any warranty work. 2021 P400e Autobiography

My 12 year old L320 can't open it's boot reliably either when using the remote plipper. Seems to be a LR thing.  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Granny cable charging seems to be working fine now. It did go through a period of spending a few hours to properly complete after reaching 100%, but seems fine now.

That's a bit of a weight off my mind - was hoping the battery wasn't glitchy. 2021 P400e Autobiography

Second tank of fuel - 760 miles. EV mode works rather well for local trips. 2021 P400e Autobiography

Couple of downers recently.

Managed to scrape one of my alloys going too close to a kerb. Not sure if it's cheaper to get it repaired or just by a refurbed used rim to replace it.

My JLR Mode 2 charging cable now shows 3 flashing red lights and won't charge. Don't know yet whether its the car or the cable (car shows no error messages). 2021 P400e Autobiography

The Granny charger has probably got a sticky relay.

Haha. I'll give that a go. We did have a power cut last week, so it could be that.

EDIT: Yeah, that worked - slammed the charger against the floor a few times and now it's charging. Thanks for the tip there! 2021 P400e Autobiography
