    You can purchase the Navigation disc from your local dealer, or go here.

    seat adjustment controls

    Cars with memory seats (HSE) had temporary power for the driver's seat for a period of time after the door was unlocked with the fob. For lower LR3 trims, the key needed to be in the ignition. Stupid, stupid... yes.

    Gas door security

    I wasn't able to siphon with a traditional tube, so I assumed it was siphon proof... but I didn't try very hard. Looks like I was wrong... Anyway, as the previous post proves... a locking door doesn't stop real fuel thieves, either... they just break it. Even though... I do think it was a...

    Gas door security

    No, the door does not lock in North America. As it's siphon proof, is there really a need for door security? It would only block 'casual' vandalism... which would be pretty rare, in my opinion. (If someone is going to try to pour something foreign in there, a flimsy door isn't going to stop them.)

    head phones

    If you are talking about the dealer installed Rosen rear DVD player (branded Land Rover), the included headphones are IR based... so, it's somewhat proprietary. If you need replacements, you may need to contact Rosen. Or just use hardwired headphones... either plugged into the door jacks...

    My original answer stands. Your service guy is clueless. :stupid:

    turning off daytime bi-xenons / on board computer ecu

    Looks like you are configured for use in Canada: mandatory daytime lights. The dealer can switch this via test book. So, they'd need to at least plug in. It's within their right to charge you a labor minimum if this isn't a warranty fix... maybe you'll get lucky. (Why were you configured for...

    Ford ESP Warranty now available for all LR3s still under warranty

    What does 3/36 mean? You mean 3 more years, and 36K more miles? So, your extended warranty expires at 7 years after purchase, or at 86K miles? That sounds odd.

    Yes, the web site is somewhat stale.

    Ford ESP can be purchased until the factory warranty is over, which is 4 year/50K... the 3 year/36K limit doesn't apply to LR3.

    Blue Tooth & Address book

    It's just a 'simple' software upgrade for the Bluetooth PTI system. In theory, the upgrade is not free... they are supposed to charge you since it's not a fix. If they pull up the TSB, they'll see something like this: "This feature is at the request of the customer only, and must be charged...

    Ford ESP Warranty now available for all LR3s still under warranty

    I think Ford ESP increased the prices in November... your 6/100K (two more years, up to 100K) warranty would probably be ~$2400 from the same seller. And likely a few more hundred for a 7/100K, if available.

    can Service Reminder be turned off?

    It should still be possible... since mine has been off for years now.

    Do I have Tire Pressure Monitors? (TPMS)

    If I remember correctly, it was added late. The earlier 2006 builds didn't have it. The valve stem will be metal if you have TPMS.
