    TPMS not calibrating tyre pressures

    Sadly all too true :( I got really sick of that warning light.

    TPMS not calibrating tyre pressures

    Drove to England to visit family and on exiting the Eurotunnel the CHECK ALL TYRE PRESSURES warning appeared again and remained, flashing slowly on and off. Took it back to the stealer here in Germany and they began the whole trouble shooting process again. They replaced the antenna in the...

    HDC & Air suspension problem L322

    Thought I'd add my experience as I've just had the same faults on my used '08 Vogue. In my case it can't be down to cold weather as I've only had it since mid May this year. First a bit of background: I'm just back from a mammoth road trip holiday, mountain biking in the Alps. In the last 3...

    A pillar outer cover took flight at 110mph

    Stealer sorted it this morning. All is good again.

    A pillar outer cover took flight at 110mph

    I was flying along the German Autobahn on Sunday (a section with no speed limit) when the plastic outer cover of the passenger side A-pillar detached itself and vanished. At first I thought a bird had hit the car but but after stopping in a lay-by I noticed the missing part. It had bounced down...

    TPMS not calibrating tyre pressures

    FWIW, my local stealer was sent some troubleshooting instructions and using those they started eliminating potential causes. In the end LR Germany connected with the car remotely and discovered there was a fault in the TPMS software. They fixed that and the tyre pressures then calibrated on the...

    TPMS not calibrating tyre pressures

    Hi, I'm hoping some of you might have an idea about why my L322's TPMS isn't calibrating tyre pressure properly. After purchasing my '08 Vogue I noticed that the message "check all tyre pressures" was displaying intermittently along with the orange tyre pressure warning lamp. As it had winter...

    Unlocking with key (not remote) triggers alarm

    Hi, When I unlocked my '08 Vogue by putting the key in the driver's door, the door unlocks but the alarm is triggered. I can stop the alarm by then unlocking with the remote. Is this normal? The Locks and Alarm chapter of the owner's manual doesn't mention this, although it does mention that...

    Replacement door handle covers

    Hi, Can the outer surface of L322 door handles be replaced or does the whole handle unit need to be replaced? I scratched the driver's door handle of my '08 L322 on a pillar when parking yesterday and am wondering what it's going to cost me... The photo shows a scratch all along the lower...

    Side lights permanently on.

    Hi, I have an '08 L322 Vogue that I bought used here in Germany. When I start the car the green side light symbol immediately lights up on the dash and the warning CHECK SIDE LIGHT appears briefly. The sides lights seem to be permanently on even when the light switch is in the 0 position. The...

    No acceleration

    My case was perhaps misleading. Took mine to my local LR dealer and they dumped the fault log and found one relating to the sensor on the turbo intake tubes. They removed them after removing the engine cover to find the ends hidden by the cover were oily. Sure enough, the left one had tear in it...

    No acceleration

    I fear I may have the same problem with mine. I just bought a used '08 TDV8 Vogue. It's done 65k miles and I had the same problem driving it home from the indie dealer. The box seemed fine during the test drive a couple of weeks ago but I didn't drive the distance I did today. The dealer was a...

    L322 buying - checklist what do you think?

    Maybe checking the VIN and engine numbers against the paperwork is worth a mention. Might be obvious to some people but it's easy to forget when you get engrossed in checking all the features in the vehicle, especially if a dealer has stored the paperwork somewhere other than in the car.

    Spotting an engine refit

    Thanks for the reply. I thought it might be something obvious. I found a post showing where the engine number is located on the 4.4 V8. Can you tell me whether it's in the same place on the TDV8 3.6 engine?

    Spotting an engine refit

    Hi, Is there any visual way to spot if an L322 has had a new engine fitted when inspecting a used vehicle? It would be useful in cases where the log book isn't exactly overflowing with details. Not being that experienced with cars I'm unable to tell by listening to the engine, as I'm sure the...

    Hi from a UK RR fan in Germany!

    FYI: From my brief research it seems green laning is not allowed in Germany. There does not seem to be the concept of byways or similar over here. It's forbidden unless otherwise stated and is basically never otherwise stated :(

    Questions over used L322 observations

    Thanks, I'll definitely check under the accelerator ;)

    Questions over used L322 observations

    I test drove an '08 Vogue yesterday that had done 98000km or 60894 miles. The drive seemed smooth enough and all features worked. The only thing I noticed was a high pitch squeal when accelerating from very low speeds or from standing. Once the car got up to 30 or 40mph the squeal disappeared...

    Questions over used L322 observations

    Well I won't be driving mine to work everyday. It will be strictly for weekends and holidays so I hope the running costs won't go through the roof :). What are the symptoms of a failing box? Anything you can do to reproduce them during a test drive?
