Hi Duracell777 and marky777 ( plus a couple of other posters ) if you don’t like this thread, then it’s simple, DON”T READ IT.

You may not be interested in this threads content, but going by the VIEW counter, a very large number of people are interested.

My issue is. as you put it Duracell, with LR but it is also about their pathetic manufacturing skills, and that is an issue for everybody who drives an LR.

Furthermore, it’s threads like this, and similar, that not only warn owners of some of the risks associated with owning these vehicles, the thread can literally be potential life savers.

For example.

Just had a look at the recalls for the Range Rover, there have been 27 in the last 14+ years so definitely not the worst out there by a long shot.

Then buy a Toyota

Who made you a guardian of LR owners

As posted Duracell, if you don't like whats being posted in this thread, no one is forcing you to read it! 2007 TDV8 Lux

Again, side skipped the question.


You will get a high thread count with a contentious headline like you have. People are curious, dosen't make them interested in the bulk of the content.

Oh and by the way, SHOUTING means you have lost the argument (even if you were right). Just something for you to think about

As this will be my (and hopefully everyones) last comment. G'day

Hi Duracell, and you are saying that if a thread is not of your liking, it should be shut down????

While I personally have a gut dislike of Land Rover the company, which I have stated before, but this doesn’t alter the fact that this company has a poor track record for both reliability and as it is now becoming pretty evident, for safety.

Furthermore, like it or not, more has been posted in this thread to help other LR owners by warning them of the risks these vehicles pose, than anywhere else on this forum.

For instance, and this has only just come to me attention, are you aware that when one of these vehicles sufferes an instantaneous catastrophic systems failure, caused when the alternators short out, that you not only loose your power steering, your brake booster, stop lights and hazard lights ( so there is no way of warning other road users that your vehicle has just turned into a brick, in the middle of some freeway ) but at the very time you most need them, because your vehicle has failed in some dangerous location, but your Safety Airbag System will also have failed.

So Duracell, why shouldn't other RR owners be warned of this danger???????????????????????? 2007 TDV8 Lux

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Agueroooooooooo. 93-20
I swear you will never see anything like this ever again....watch it..drink it in.

Damn right they are dangerous....

Dangerously addictive! Car history includes: LR Series 3, RR Classic x 4, LR 101, Discovery 1 and 2 and now FFRR.
Yes I'm a masochist....

Land Rover products are like drugs and I cannot get enough of them! As such I accept the problems that come with them.

Drivesafe, you appear to have gone cold turkey and kicked the habit. Maybe you should find a more pious platform such as the Land Cruiser forum because naturally these never fail or suffer recalls, and leave us junkies to our soma!

Are you sure, I thought the SRS units took 10 minutes to discharge once power is disconnected.
