In the end, I found out that my insurance company had suggested replacing all the wiring harnesses, but the service department never got the message. They spent 5 months repairing wires and guessing. When I finally went down there with a car-dealer friend of mine, he asked them a few questions and then said he'd fix it for me. The next day I called them and said I had a tow truck coming to get it. That very same day, they called and said they replaced a wiring harness and the vehicle was ready. I traded it in the next week on an '08 BMW 335i and haven't regretted it yet. I tell all my friends to stay away from any Land Rover product.

New RRS Owner! Have a few questions....

I just bought a RRS two days ago! So far love it! I come from a porsche cayenne which was great, but too bumpy, too small and just not as good as the RRS for long road trips.
I was wondering if anyone else has issues with the lines in the heated windshield? OR do you get use to it? At night, approaching a signal light I see halos around it.. kind of distracting.
Also, is there any way on the satellite radio to tell which artist/song is playing?
I assume theres no way to adjust the headrest? It get in my way a little bit..
Many thanks!!

Congratulations on the new purchase, I bought mine last June and loved every minute of it. I have driven just about 15K on it (Yes, I drive a lot), and has not had ANY issues, with the exception of getting a flat tire (that destroyed the tire) with 600 miles on it. 
ok, I did have one issue. The rear windshield wiper is on a screw, it can come loose, especially if you use it without cleaning the snow off. So be careful, mine flew off.
I see the lines on the heated windows, but I dont have any problems with it. And it comes in handy in snow
Just press the tuning button in, to see the name, and the song, on the satellite radio.
Enjoy....
Also, check out RangerRovers,net, it is a great resource....

I picked up a new 2008 RRS SC about 2 months ago. I like the car but one really annoying problem. At about 50mph to 60mph a vibration in the steering wheel. I took it to the dealer and they "road force balanced" the tires for free. It helped very little so I took it back there. They stated the problem must be a "tire flat spot" from this heavy suv sitting on a lot during the summer. After the some screaming, Land Rover replaced all 4 tires. Unfortunately, the problem is still there. The dealer is now blaming it "low profile, 20 inch" tires that provide a lot of feedback. I don't buy it since the steering wheel vibration is only between 50-60mph. Anyone else had this issue? Could it be the alignment? Could it be the Continental tire design? This issue is driving me crazy.

I also have a 2008 RRs SC and have noticed the vibration. I have been back to the dealership 3 times and have had the wheel / tires balanced twice. I also bought a new set of both wheels and tires and the issue is still there. Please let me know if anyone has been able to get this resolved. I really like this vehicle, but this problem has really got me down. Thanks.
