A consolidated statement backed up by hard evidence presented to LR will not necessarily get every FBH working but will at least elicit a public statement, rather than soundbites or hints based upon private mutterings that may or may not have taken place which, to date, have achieved the square root of all

Would 06MY have any comeback on this as in theory it never existed on our cars.

I do think TFC's idea is excellent because perhaps LR will then take DISCO3.co.uk seriously over the many topics that concern all of us about our great cars!

Cliff, it was originally 'sort - of' fitted on the '05MY vehicles, so therefore it's 'missing', as it did (and does) exist on quite a few vehicles, coupled with the OEM's claimed functionality when fitted to other vehicles.

Wish I could claim the credit for the idea, however it was Simon (who's now ishly sitting back and watching the fun!

TFC, there is no evidence, I just know that friends of mine in LR and you have met at least one of them tell me so. I have no problem with a letter, I after all have placed one to the CEO both in the USA and UK on this very site, which seems to have disappeared now. Also my dealer principle watches and you know they are logged onto this site as well.

BN, your letter's here

http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=24878#24878

So we can put the conspiracy theory that LR have infiltrated the admins of disco3 purely to delete posts, to bed now eh?

If LR are "watching" they don't seem to take the issues on here too seriously because many of them are obviously still ongoing with dealers and LR themselves often denying all knowlege.

Cliff, my point exactly

Dear Messrs. Tenfurcash and Beaenn,

I'm up for a petition, backed with copied letters to a number of the key motoring rags and hacks, posted on the Forum too.

I am pretty sure that the response will be entirely predictable, but will inevitably be an opening for a second attack.

If nothing else, it will be entertaining - and something to brighten these dark winter evenings.

So - put me down for the letter and put me down for one of the workaround gizmos, please.

Thanking you so very much......

you've been at the port again, haven't you?

Thanks for finding it TFC, my glasses have steamed up again with the momentum of this thread from a success re the FBH to a head on battle with LR now.

BN, in a war, there are no winners, only degrees of loss. I, for one do not want a 'battle' with LR, just fairness and an open exchange, to be honest, the FBH is all as a percentage of the vehicle, however, what winds me up is the 'trust-me-tone' attitude of hiding things from people who pay a significant amount of dosh for an awesome vehicle. yes, it's generally 98%+ OK, which is the reason people on here focus on the little niggles as if the gearbox has dropped out.
All I expect is what I was lead to believe was integral to the vehicle (my personal 'missing link' is the tyre pressure monitors) - or a reasonable explanation of why it's not there. Let's be honest, FBH, tyre pressure monitors etc. are hardly bleeding edge technology in their own right, as I see it, the problem is integration into the existing systems. For a vehicle that had four years development (last centuries vehicles had 8 - 10 years) I think that LR have done incredibly well to develop the Disco 3 to the point it's at now but need to admit / recognise that 'continual improvement' generally means adding features, not subtracting them.

IF anyone from LR happens to read this, i'd be more than happy to expand on my experiences / thoughts ....as long as you supply the gin

Brian,
Am I right in thinking that this Webasto gizmo will not affect the pre-cool setting that appears to be equally blighted by the 'shut-down' of the vehicle after a certain period of inactivity?
