This is my fourth day with my 2008 HST and it just keeps getting better. Its been 20yrs since i used to use Land & Range-Rovers to build radio towers in the middle of no-where and this car is reminding me of the 'good old days' <lol>. What a difference it is over the manual low-ratio / transfer boxes we had then.
Anyway, with all this new technology, what i find confusing is the amount and nature of the various electrical 'features' e.g. Using great advice from this group i have been able to disable the annoying seat-belt chime and set the elec door mirrors to auto-fold when locked ...but i have not been able to get the mirrors to auto-dip when going in reverse. Generally speaking, i imagine that with the mirrors just as many people would want to enable/disable the 'auto-fold' function as would want to enable/disable the 'auto-dip' function?
It seems that some 'features' can be set by the user ...but others need to be set by the dealer? How odd - why should Landrover consider that one feature should be generally available over others that are not? Its like the software programming & control side of things has not been carefully thought through.
...still a great car though :o)
