I had a similar problem recently, though mine went into those faults all the time.
The code reader came up with lots of faults, but the most significant was rear right ABS sensor. So I bought a new ... |

How do the engines test for oil dilution?
I'm assuming there isn't a sensor specifically for measuring the amount of diesel in the oil, or is it as simple as an increase in oil level?
Has anyone ... |

Good to see that a 2016 model L405 is still able to keep its value. Not a bad price of only £224,850.

Wouldn't isolating power to the gear selector do the same thing?
You could start the car, but couldn't put it into gear. |

It is an 8-speed gearbox so it is quite easy and normal to change from 8th to 7th. |

Yes, I use a simpler version as a security item. All it is is a OBD plug which connects into the original socket and a OBD socket which replaces the proper one under the dash. Items plugged in to the ... |

All the N357 extra wiring loom does is put an extra bit of wiring and another plug between the oil sensor and the rest of the wiring - it is a sticky plaster at best.
The real issue is the appaling ... |

So does it not make any difference to the vehicle that it doesn't work? Does not affect emissions or anything else?
The only think that seems not to work properly is the service interval calculatio ... |

This might not be what you want to hear, but my oil sensor has never worked since I bought the car 3 and a bit years ago.
I looked into getting the sensor replaced, although just couldn't justify t ... |

i suspect if it is like other recent JLR vehicles the bearing is encased in a hub and are not normally hugely expensive or require much in the way of specialist tools. |

It sounds like low pressure in the refrigerant, but not low enough that the system stops working. Mine blows icy cold within a few seconds of switching on even in this temperature.
