    New to me 2018 Disco 5 Diesel

    Looks great! I had the same 21” wheels and swapped them out for 20” wheels with Nitro Terra Grapplers. I bet the heated windshield could be added on and coded into the computer by the dealer. I’d ask them if they can handle something like that.

    2021 facelift released

    I don’t think the facelift changes anything for most buyers. Wouldn’t make me upgrade. The new engine is unproven so reliability may be poor from the onset. Bigger touchscreens are nice. Different shift knob is net neutral.

    Replacement for Chrome Around Drive Selector

    You could always cut a piece of vinyl wrap to fit over it. Guys do this with Carbon Fiber vinyl look wraps on their BMW etc. If you just want a matte black, that's easy. Check ebay.

    I want to do the SERVICE myself (will or will not void warranty)

    FWIW, I do tons of my own maintenance.

    D5 Diesel -- Warmup ? Reliability?

    I often wonder if I should have purchased the diesel engine. My SCV6 has been flawless and the truck has been good for 2 yrs +.

    BMW has a version of this sort of video Aux Input Carplay adapter. It's only $250 on Amazon/AliExpress/Ebay. Guess they always like to charge LR owners a little extra.

    Service experience with Ben Leung has been great. Had been slightly concerned that the horror stories from a prior bankruptcy would be a problem for purchases.

    19” Wheels for winter?

    I am wondering the same. D5s do come equipped with OEM19’s but the width and offset seem a little different than prior model wheels.

    Anyway to add apple carplay to 2015 RRS?

    I believe there are aftermarket solutions for this. Something like this that hooks into your auxiliary video input: https://www.naviplus.com.au/single-post/2017/12/05/Apple-CarPlay-Android-Auto-Retrofit-for-Land-Rover-Range-Rovers

    ‘14-16 LR4 Transmission Software Reflash??

    The SCV6 is kinda underpowered. Try adding a RaceChip mod to get the car from 335/340HP to 405HP. Will dramatically improve mid range power and gets through my gears faster.

    RaceChip Install on LR Discovery 5 L462

    RaceChip has 3 products that boost HP/Torque on these 3.0 V6 motors by increasing supercharger boost levels. The Range Rover and Range Rover Sport come with the same engines but potentially with 380HP from the factory instead of 340 or 335HP as the D5 is rated. The D5 is a little underpowered...

    2010 LR4 Multimedia interface update/upgrade?

    I can't live without Apple Carplay in my D5. I think the bigger screen touch controls are clutch.

    Dropping calls, Bluetooth, etc...

    I haven't had any issues with dropped calls via Bluetooth. I have had trouble connecting music via bluetooth. The InControl apps seem to fight with my bluetooth. I dislike not being able to use my phone while plugged into InControl Apps.

    D5 - Comprehensive Review

    I agree with your entire review. Spent the first weekend (550 miles) with an SDV6 D5 Black Exterior w/ Black pack... After hating on all the other colors the black/black really helps to hide some of the odd design look in the rear end. The car has grown on me enormously after living with it all...
