    Hi mate, thanks for the reply but LR tried a brand new fob but it wouldn't link to the system they said something else was preventing it from programming.

    Remote central locking components

    Tried the search thing but nothing specific came up, recently whilst my Hippo was in my local LR dealership having a new key coded to the car they said that my old remote fob was kaput and that they'd been unsuccessful in linking a new one due to something in the system not working and stopping...

    Where do I start.........?

    I had a similar problem with the clutch pedal, there wasn't any excess free play but on depressing there was a clicking sound which I traced to where the pedal linkage joins the cable being held by some plastic clip, the clip was partly broken and moving about, I got over it by using two cable...

    Hi mate, I bought a new key from Land Rover last week, it cost me £93 inc. VAT but because the car was 2003> The key came with a chip that needed extra programming for it to work with the car, I believe it would cost around £60 plus VAT to do this (surprisingly this price is competitive with...

    Lol, very true, and whether you are well off or like me broke! explains why there are so many older Landies around, easy to maintain, bags of character and fun to drive, as nice as the new models are they just don't have the charm of an old series Landie or early Disco

    New key problem

    Key issue all sorted thanks to Hunters, had to laugh though when I arrived the (extremely attractive) young lady at the service desk was all professional and yes sir no sir but when she asked me which method of payment I'd be using and I said none as it was a free job via the parts department...
