I have found a number of times that my trip and fuel computer likes to reset itself. Very annoying indeed!!!
Has anyone had this problem?

Cheers

Yea I have had it happen. Doesn't bother me though. Don't put petrol in a diesel. They don't run well.

This normally happens if you start the car too quickly after docking the fob. about 5 second gap normally stops this from happening.

Yes quite often, normally if its having one of its Im not quite ready to start yet moments.  I was only wrong once and thats when I thought I was but wasnt.

It isn't normal for the onboard computer info to resets to zero, no matter what you do, besides reset it yourself.
Earlier cars (VIN range H000200-H063923) needs a software recalibration.
Ask for Technical Bulletin LTB00093.

Mine always resets after a 1000 miles. Freelander2 GS TD4 Manual in Lago Grey .Roof Mount DVD 9.2''Screen~Window Tints~Parrot CK3100 Bluetooth~Retro Fit Sony Satnav~iPhone Dashmount~Side Steps~Woodco Armrest~Mudflaps~Land Rover Sunglass Holder~LED Interior Lights~Private Plate.Evoque Collected 17th Sept 2012.

New one on me, this one. Tend to agree with Alex, shouldn't happen.

I don't generally mess about when starting. Fob in, clutch down, Start button pressed. If I take more than 3 secs I'd be surprised. Engine is normally running before I clip in my seat-belt. All one fluid action.

Never had an issue with a self re-set. We Don't Care About Pot Holes !!

Seems that all of you complaining about it have cars from MY2007. Look if the VIN fits.
The procedure (LTB00093) will update the Central Junction Box and the Instrument Cluster firmware.
No matter how quick you are, this should not happen.
For example I push the key with the thumb and almost in the same time I push the start button with the middle (sexual ) finger. It never failed to start. Not to mention that never resets its info. Maybe it likes that way...

My 07 TD4 reset itself occasionally but the software update cured the problem which never re-occured. Now sold

My FL2 is 2010 and it has happened to me a few times. As a recall maybe I was in hurry in starting the car but I beleive that this should not cause a reset. Agree that it is frustrating.

Just reset the clock for daylight saving, parked came back in an hour and it had lost the hour had to to it again. And i did save changes before anyone asks.  Don't put petrol in a diesel. They don't run well.

Just had mine booked in for this fault, after spitting out the key as well as resetting the trip computer again. Half hour labour for this upgrade and not covered on the extended warranty!!
