It doesn’t ’need’ it - despite the hyperbole in previous posts you can fit a towbar fairly simply and it will work fine. But to get the additional features built in to a factory setup the car has to be coded to tell it that there is one fitted.
The Defender also adjusts gearbox shift patterns etc. when a trailer is hooked up, as well as disabling rear parking sensors etc. and the other features already mentioned. |

Yep. Mine is after market. No issues whatsoever ever. Same when I fitted tow bars to my D3s and D4s.
Never needed to configure anything. Eiger Grey MY23 D250 SE with bits. Known as Noddy. |
