Range = 55 miles, I don't suppose it's a low fuel warning by any chance?
Low fuel light is something completely different
Hi J thanks, I’m loathed to take to JLR but have specialist not too fat away but I’m curious to know I’ve had RRSs for years now this is my 6th one, I love them but JLR are the worst service and PR I’ve ever come across.no idea. but to guess its the sort of symbol used by JLR for suspension type issue.
Oh and welcome.
J
Also couldnt find it , indeed I also wonder if it’s the vehicle range symbol
Low fuel would as mentioned show a fuel pump symbol, suspension would show a car with an arrow in it
Plus 1 to getting a scanner seeing it’s an amber warning light

Easy... it's one of the 'special programs' icons, if you press the rotary selector for the special programs so it's down ('auto'), the icon will disappear - that one indicates a road-biased program.
It's not an error, just an indication - the same as the amber 'snowflake' for low temperatures and the amber low fuel icon.

As is not reading the owners handbook, assuming that they still supply one these days.
Hi mate
Must confess could only find a 2016 owners manual for this model , did have a good look to no avail of what all the instrumental panel lights were, with the OP specifically stating a 2014 L494 RRS 5.0l Supercharged
But indeed as mentioned with regards to getting a scanner plugged in

To be fair, it's not at all clear from the manual where and when these indications will appear - I worked as a LRE instructor part-time for a few years, at the time it was common for new owners to be given the 1/2 day 'experience', in most cases, we were filling in the gaps in the (supposedly) extensive vehicle handover the sales reptiles gave, and there is a finite amount of attention you can give when you just want to drive away with your new car....

When cars were a mode of transport rather than toys full of gimmicks, there was much less to read in the owners hand book.
Very impressive and imagine u got some face palm questions, lol
Often wondered particularly with the newer models of why JLR installed the auto TR2 mode so customers could then simply select that instead of going through the rest of the TR2 settings
Ps, did read a post a while back on one of the Land Rover forums where a new owner asked why his new Land Rover was so slow down the motorway , in the end found out he had it in low range
