    You like the HSE head and sat nav? And you wanted auto lights and rain sensing wipers. But you bought a GS…? 😁

    …lots. Planning on taking it for a trip to North Wales soon, so splashing out a bit. Have already mentioned the roof rails last week. LR roof bars should be here in next few days too, to go on top. Today I fitted an aftermarket centre front...

    Is it definitely the rack, or the supply pipes that rust away and leak.

    You defo need a new mechanic. If possible, take someone who is mechanically-minded with you when you go back. Fuses missing are a massive tell-tale…

    If the engine light has lit once, there should be a code stored to read. This will direct you better than changing parts randomly.

    A word of warning. Don't be tempted to by those cheap pumps from Ebay, as they're garbage. Only fit genuine or OE pumps and filters.

    Assumed you’d already tried the normal regen route as your first post mentioned doing 50-60 for an hour, which should have forced it.

    LR diagnostics can force a regen, but I thought the car would display a ‘DPF full’ message, if that was the issue(?)

    Lack of power and smoke could be a loose/split boost pipe. Other things to check besides the filter and LP pump are the O rings on the high pressure pump. These wear over time also. Cheap repair kits online. If you have decent diagnostics you...

    Possibly - I’ll look next time I plug LR SDD laptop in to it. If it works and I can configure, I’m happy to come over @GrumpyGel and do yours, but you’ll have to cover expenses 😵‍💫🤪

    For the wipers there is no physical bit that is different, the switch has a position between off and on slow and there is a variable lever - so I would imagine there is a config that can set that position to either intermittent or auto. Whether...

    Of course, fitting different sized tyres is a modification, and so you “may” have to notify your insurance.

    *1 is magic, and seems to be installed in every F2 😵‍💫 Auto lights are great, but, as every car, they still struggle to sense fog during the day, and so many people forget to override and switch their lights on. (That’s not LR specific of...
