hi all
just a note to all range rover owners.
i traveled from Leigh to Weymouth (Sunday) the other week(for Olympics)got there no problems 277 miles,parked up went to relieve myself and get a brew,went to the car to get my kit out pressed the key fob and nothing(sh@t),opened with the key but display requested a key code,guess what i didn't have one, so i phoned Merlin in Doncaster where the car originally came from and i got told we don't give that info out over the phone and hung up. so i searched for the nearest dealer in Poole same answer(if i took my log book to them they will give the key code i didn't have my log book). so i rang land ranger services in atherton my local independent ( they know me well as used to run a disco and a classic) thinking there may be a universal code, within an hour they had my code and all is well now must of been interference.i had a bit of a sweat on Sunday night as i had to go to the London Olympics on Monday afternoon and my boss wouldn't of been happy if i couldn't get there.
morale of the story get as much info for your range rover as possible before going any where!!
