Landylad,
many thanks. I hope you enjoy driving now your mind has been put to rest. .....and I hope to get to the bottom of things too. can anyone confirm if the switch on the clutch cylinder should be n/o or n/c when the clutch isn't depressed ? |

so tried it with the clutch connection unplugged and not nice. the over run between gears was massively excessive and really not nice.......
so where does that leave me? I presume that means its working correctly? |

Mate this is such a simple fix, had the exact issue on mine. Check the fuses, its usually the trailer ligh fuse that blows... causes this issue!!! Dont ask me why but it does!
Hope this helps!!!! |

i have exactly the same landylad.....drove out of the showroom Brandnew defender 2,2 and it did that.
so far i just left it thought it might correct itself. my guess that it's a electronic issue of some sort. i got used to it now but if anybody knows of any (landrover recall) do let me know and i'll mention it when the first service is due.

May also be a powertrain software issue fixed by a later version? |

Andrea,
have checked most of the fuses will check rest later today (all ok so far and to be honest the trailer lights works so don't think it relates to this). wslr - will have a look at the clutch fluid also - thanks. |

This particular one wouldn't keep its fluid clean, even after a flush, so we fitted a new master cylinder. IIRC, it had some work done elsewhere including the clutch/slave, so this was OK(ish), but a new master cylinder sorted it out as far as I know.

Sorry to get back to you so late. I would check those under the wheel it is often there that a fuse blows. It's normally the red fuses. Come to think about it my trailer lights where also working when it happened so ya maybe just check those. If not then wslr seems to have the next best solution.
