My courtesy car is an eD4 .... no likey!!!

Mines been in for the dreaded 60k service... it's all ok but my parking sensors need a new loom to work again! The courtesy car is a brand new 200 miles only eD4, it's no where near a td4 . It's seems really slow on acceleration and a bit vague on the corners. I'm looking forward to getting my old xs back. Copley landrover have done an ok job for £310 and they have software updated included. they have swapped the brake fluid as it was never offered on the 3 year service! How does £130 for a new sensor loom sound.

I've collected the car this morning and the dealer says it's the front sensors loom? They say it's the loom and not the actual sensors!!! Any one had a similar problem? I have called another dealer to quote on a price to be told its not normally the loom just the sensors go, but they would need £80 on the diagnostic to be sure! It's a right racket !!!!

find it very strange that the loom is faulty, normally this would only be caused by physical damage as any electrical faults would manifest themselves elsewhere as well.

my first FL2 had sensors and the rear control box replaced due to continuously sounding sensors, but i did have the car back in nearly on a monthly basis to have them sort them, so it might have just been and last ditched attempt to fix a known problem. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
