reminds me of our Audi A3s - everytime someone else borrowed the car, we stood by and watched while they stopped 4m short of our street's Stop sign --

A lot of journalists commented on the brakes and LR said it would be addressed for production, obviously not
I suppose it will sort the tailgaters out |

Having just taken my TDi300 out for its first run in a month I now appreciate the new one’s brakes even more....... also, another pair of trousers with a ripped off belt loop where it caught on the door jam and my first electronics issue on a car with no electronics - start up the engine and without touching the wiper stalk The wipers ran for about 3 minutes and I couldn’t stop them!

It’s not the LR’s that have issues it’s you being a wizard or something similar?

I wonder if there is any software adjustment between the different wheel sizes; and if so whether someone will work out how to hack and adjust?

No need for that as the OEM wheel/ tyres combos all add up to the same rolling radius, just the sidewall height changes with the wheel size. iIRC with the other cars from JLR if you have the right diagnostic tool there are more options in the setting that you access from the Config files - or you can pay your firiend LR dealer to do it but often they have to warn you that you could invalidate your warranty. There is a quite wide tolerance on the settings before they have a serious effect on the speedo without having to plug in a diagnostic tool.
Members AndrewS and Naks or Zilch might know more - Disco3 forum might be the place to ask as more of those guys are modifying their cars than RRS owners!

Should have been more specific ~ the different wheels all have different sized discs & calipers. I was wondering if this required any adjustment to the brake by wire?
