Reg Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hi, I left my Rangie parked up for about 3 weeks and when I came to start up apart from a slightly lazy battery I got a Gearbox fault pop up on the display. Switched off after a few minutes idle, restarted, no gearbox fault! When I drove round the block it took about 5 minutes for the suspension to get settled with lights blinking on the switch. After that it settled down and all is OK. Was my Rangie just sleepy and needed a stretch, or do I have some underlying problems coming up?

DrRob Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Land Rovers usually fix themselves. It's a fact Even James May in one of his books said it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scube Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 The flat low battery caused the gearbox fault to appear in the display. It’s not a problem now that you have put some charge back into the battery. I had a problem with my alarm continually waking up when parked outside my place. Every time I went to start it, it would either be so flat that the engine would not start or the gearbox fault would be displayed. You did the right thing with turning the ignition on and off a few times before driving off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
