I have improved the situation a bit by trying to make sure the lock is completely dry and then applying some lock oil.

However, a problem that’s trickier to tackle is that anytime I wash the car ...

No recommendations in particular other than being aware that the PHEv only makes sense if you can charge at home every day and primarily do relatively short journeys.

Other than the terribly desig ...

Has anyone had any issues with the side carrier box in cold weather? The lock itself seems super simple and cheap with no weather proofing at all. The whole mechanism freezes shut in colder weather, m ...

Occasionally, I might stop at fast chargers when on long journeys, and relaxing in the car for a bit can be a chilly affair during the winter since there doesn’t seem to be a way to operate the clim ...

A PHEV makes very little sense if you don’t have a charger at home. The already limited range is impacted severely when the battery is cold.

I’m trying to up my 4x4 knowledge and I noticed recently that the Defender occasionally seems to locks diffs also while doing low speed cornering, which I presumed was generally considered a bad ide ...

I’m also getting intermittent check engine light, even while in EV mode. Have an appointment in 5 weeks (!) to have it looked at.

How do you check DTCs in Topix? I don’t have that tab there at ...

JLR might get a lot of things wrong, but the fact that they’re consistently pushing out these updates along with relatively detailed change logs is admirable!

I have an issue with my P400e. If I precondition the cabin while the car is connected to a charger and at 100% SoC the vehicle will fail to maintain the SoC and instead drains the battery. I can see t ...
