Well, after reading all the experiences where owners share the many "fault messages" that pop up on their message center. This afternoon, i insertrd my key into the ignition and the LR sounded very laboured when trying to start, Even when i turned the key back to level ii on the ignition, the engine was still trying to turn over. When it finally did, i received the following messages:
1/ transmission fault limited gears available
2/ HDC fault: system not available
3/ reduced engine performance
4/ the ABS light is lit up
5/ the HDC light is lit up
6/ and i got the letter "F" besides my gear selection display
the engine does turn on but sounds different. I think its because of the "reduced engine performance"
I put the car into drive and it moved very slowly. just enough for me to move it to the side of my driveway.
Based on what I have read on this forum, I am guessing that it's a bad battery. Back in August, after leaving the LR in a hotel parking lot for 10 days when I went to Maui, it was completely drained of any power. Not even enough to unlock the car remotely .
I'm going to tedt the battery later but just wanted to get you guys' opinion on what it might be.
