High fellas, new to the Range Rover world and already pulling at my hair. Just purchased (3 weeks ago) a 2001 Y Reg 4.0 Thor engine Rangey. The problem I`m having is this. I lock up the car with the fob or key and leave it overnight. When I get up in the morn the battery is flat or almost flat. My neighbour has noticed that the indicators/hazards are on in the night but not flashing just permanently on. This is obviuosly whats drining the battery but it`s not all the time. It will go for days ok then out of the blue do it again. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks..

this could be a few things, one is your becm getting woken up during the night. if you parking it on your drive way, try putting it outside one night, see what happens then..

Remove the (SINGLE) Aerial lead from the receiver behind the real panel in the boot (drivers side), this will have the effect of desensitising the RF receiver allowing it to sleep longer without getting woken up by every stray RF signal passing by.
If this works then job done, if it doesn't then the gremlins may well have some explaining to do.
