Media gremlins

Hi all, it’s year’s since I’ve been on forums 👋👋
I took delivery of my 110 hard top d300 hse dynamic last week and absolutely love it now I have it to my liking but the Meridian music system is pants for a vehicle pushing 80k, I’ve done a quick google and it seems a lot of people in the states are having the same issues as I’ve just had which is only one speaker working on the Lhs and was making my ears bleed, has anyone else had the same issues?

I had it. However, my non working speakers seemed to move front to back and left to right. A software patch fixed it.

As for the Meridian system, its pants, particularly compared to my XC90s system. I even think my daughter's D3 HK system is better. Eiger Grey MY23 D250 SE with bits. Known as Noddy.

Ahh thanks Moo I’ll try the patch, is it the process of pressing the main button for 15 seconds until it goes blank or a dealer visit.

Yes the Meridian surround system in my 2020 rr sport is a much more refined system but then again they are obviously made for different uses.

Update on the above defender, when I got back in it had gone back to normal and to be fair the sound is quite impressive for a hard top, sounds like the issue is going to be intermittent, I reckon this is why it took Land Rover so many years to perfect the new defender, creating the nigly little problems just like the originals 😫

My dealer did it all. Sorry, no idea about using the power off button. Eiger Grey MY23 D250 SE with bits. Known as Noddy.

You can reboot the PiviPro system by holding the power button down (i.e. the physical volume knob) until the Pivi screen restarts. That cures some gremlins (a bit like CTRL+ALT+DEL on Windoze

)

For software updates you have to wait for JLR HQ to send your Defender the next OTA update (or visit a helpful dealer). HTH Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S
Gone: Defender 90 HT 200Tdi, Discovery Sport, Freelander 2

Land Rover customer service +44-370-500-0500 can push updates to the car if available and they deem them necessary to fix issues.

Might be worth giving them a call
