oh Dear

My 2013 SD GS is now three months old and done 4000miles.Last week it started miss firing ie engine seeming to momentarliy cut out and then continue running only to re-occur sometime later.After a while the engine check light came on.Returned to Dealer.Problem reported as "incorrect routing of cable to Crankshaft position sensor resulting in cable rubbing causing short to vehicle earth".So much for Land Rover quality control.
Seems to be ok since getting it back from Dealer.The joys of Land Rover ownership! Rolling Eyes

I'm impressed by your dealer.

Most would have changed out every conceivable thing by now and still not found the problem.

Half the battle is if you get a good dealer, then even when things go wrong, they never seem as bad.
So far my dealer gets a thumbs up from me.

Good to hear it was sorted quickly.
