I live in San Jose, California and have had my RangeRover Sport for 4 months and have 9k miles on it. When I first took delivery of the truck, the tranny would jump after coming to a complete stop. Even at acceleration it sometimes jumped. I was told there is a software upgrade that is required to fix the issue. I had the SW upgrade done and it fixed the issue. I took the truck in to get the cooler box replaced as it went out and after getting it back it now jumps again!! I called the dealer today and made another appt to take it back in to get it fixed. Apparently there were several SW upgrades to fix the issue. This will be the 3rd time I have taken this in on the same issue. If LandRover doesn't fix this issue I will take action on the lemon law! Nothing like buying a $75k SUV and having these kinds of issues!! Other than that I love the truck... I would hate to get rid of it  If you buy one don't get BLACK! It is impossible to keep clean. Next time I would get white. |

Replying to: sfwales (Oct 04, 2006 7:32 am) Funny how a Hyundai dealer would give you a new car and apologize profusely for the flaw while Land Rover claims it is part of the car's experience... Of course, Hyundai's cost way less and have a 10 year warranty. I thought this was a luxury car? And people wonder why Asian car companies are thriving while Ford (Land Rover parent) is facing financial dire straits? What can we do about this ticking sounds? Simply unnaceptable for a luxury car - or any modern car. PLEASE. |

You are going to get rid of a 70,000 dollar vehicle because of sounds from the exhaust exspanding and contracting??? You guys are way too picky just drive with your windows up. I have probably worked on and driven more cars then either of you two combined. That noise is a common noise on many different vehicles that sometimes goes away and sometimes does not. It seems to be espescialy common on cars with long exhaust systems where the majority of he exhaust is directly exposed to the outside air.

Replying to: jinpower (Oct 10, 2006 11:45 pm) It does this on my 2006 LR3 HSE (v8) with 1500 miles on it... If it's still doing it at 5000 miles I may mention it, but it doesn't affect my enjoyment of the vehicle, and it's relatively (IMHO) minor as an annoyance. Now, if they could only get my roofliner to stop rattling, that would be perfect. /DA |

After reading about all of these problems with these very expensive automobiles, I am so happy I got rid of it. I too feel that they don't treat you very well at the dealerships, they should be apoligetic and instead they get nasty with you when you complain about your problems.
