    Fuzzy screen when back up camera is activated

    Sorry DON'T bother. The backup camera (also on the '07-'09) BMW X5 is equally horrible (same supplier). The dealer will just tell you that it is performing to 'Factory Standards'. :(

    Supercharged grill vs. HSE grill ('07-'09 Range Rover)

    Supercharged Grille or HSE grill? I love the look of the honeycomb Supercharged Grill for my new '08 Range Rover...but I have the HSE. My local dealer is offering me a great deal on one, but I feel like a "poser". Is it odd, to swap out my HSE grille for the Supercharged one? The dealer said...

    Door locks locking themselves...and not factory programmed to do so

    Yeah, since it only happened one time, the odds of them duplicating it again is a really slim chance. Also, I've only had the car about 2 months, so I have 46 months left of factory warranty. So, I'll just mention it when I am due for a scheduled service, unless something big & bad happens...

    Door locks locking themselves...and not factory programmed to do so

    For sure did not press the button, obviously. On the '08 Full Size Range Rover, the door lock button is in the middle of the dash, near the hazard/energency lights. Not an easy button to accidently press. I was driving down a quiet road, with both hands on the wheel. Part of me just wants to...

    Door locks locking themselves...and not factory programmed to do so

    I do not have the drive away auto locking feature programmed (I do find it weird that a Land Rover dealer has to do this though, since with BMW & Mercedes, you just access it thru iDrive or the multifunction steering wheels on the Benz and do it yourself!). Anyway, while I was driving...

    Re-pairing an already paired phone- Bluetooth

    This works. THANK YOU. When it happens to say "Phone Not Fitted", which is a few times a week, I just go now into my Settings, Bluetooth, unpair Land Rover, wait a few seconds, then Pair Land Rover, enter the Land Rover standard factory Bluetooth code 2121...and my iPhone fits/pairs, address...

    Re-pairing an already paired phone- Bluetooth

    Thanks Umbertob! The iPhone meunu is similar to your Blackberry. When the car says "Phone Not Fitted", the iPhone says Land Rover Paired. I can click on the highlighted Land Rover Paired, and then select un-pair. Never tried it, as I wasn't sure I would be able to re-pair without turning the...

    Re-pairing an already paired phone- Bluetooth

    Hope someone has some advice! My iPhone paired perfectly with my new 2008 Range Rover HSE. Upon starting, I would say 8/10 times, the phone pairs with the car, downloads my phone book & I make and accept calls fine. A couple of times a week, it does not pair. When I push the Phone button on...

    iPhone 3G + Range Rover Bluetooth

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I didn't even know that little thing on the side existed, until about a month ago, when I was sure my iPhone was "totally dead", and I stood in line at the apple store...only to have someone at the Apple "Genius Bar" click my main sound back on! ;) It does not...

    iPhone 3G + Range Rover Bluetooth

    My iPhone 3G paired right away with my new '08 Range Rover, and my entire address book uploaded quickly and easily. Upon starting the car, my iPhone connects with the car virtually everytime. The problem I am having is with incoming calls. When a call comes in, the stereo mutes itself, the...

    LR3 vs Gwagen

    We are currently on our 3rd G-Class (2003 G500, 2005 G55 AMG and 2008 G55 AMG). They are generally great cars. Ride is very harsh (but that does not matter off road). The design is now 30 years old, and a big Achilles heal are the power windows. The car was never designed for power windows...

    2006 RR Supercharged - Need buying Tip

    I believe 2006 had some transmission slippage issues, and usual Land Rover electrical glitches. According to my Rover salesman, the 2007 & 2008 Range Rover is to date, the least problem free Rover built.

    2008 Range Rover Button HELP

    Car at dealer to fix broken front and rear Park Distance control :( S**t, only had the car 1 day!! Oh well, could be worse. Anyway, the button is not for "consumers". It is used to turn off accessories when the cars are being shipped on the boat. Once the car has been thru PDI, then it is...

    2008 Range Rover Button HELP

    Hey Everyone, Just took delivery of a 2008 Range Rover today. There is a button under the steering column, right about the gas & brake pedals. It is somewhat flat, and there are 2 arrows (pointing left and right). When either arrow is pushed, the whole cars makes "electronic" sounds, and...
