The Stealership, as usual, are as accommodating and helpful as dead nazis and I ended up being seen by a chap from LR Assitance. Within 20 mins of the phone call he was here at work with the laptop plugged in to the 110. Delighted with that brilliant service. I shall always use them from now on. Helpful, punctual, efficient and articulate.
Diagnosis - the ABS controle module is throwing out no signals at all. All the signals are going in but nothing out. Ironically a lot like the brains of the service team at my local dealer ![]() ABS module is knackered deep inside. I need a new one. The 110 is going in on Sat anyway for them to seal the snorkel properly, not having done so when they attached it ![]() At least the 110 drives OK. Apparently the hand brake light comes on to indicate a brake fault as well as the ABS light indicating an ABS problem. Belt & braces. The moral of this (dull) story is - if in doubt and you're under warranty, call LR Assistance. Then you can speak to your dealer armed with the correct information. Reading this post again, I appreciate it not going to win the Defender2.net interesting post award 2009. Sorry - it might be useful to someone who has same symptoms as me. ![]() |

There's no such thing as a dull post.
I'd be very interested in getting that list of recall items that they're finally getting round to. I want to take the list to my local dealer and ensure they do them too. I've dealt with LR assistance in the past and have been very impressed - they know their stuff and seem to be genuinely enthusiastic. One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS + New Defender 110 First Edition |

That's what impressed me most too, Alan. I'm going to try my best to get hold of a copy of the job list on Saturday. If i succeed, i'd post a pdf of it on here. ![]() |

Yep,
Full marks from me too for LR assist after the front crownwheel shed two bolts. They had a loan car from LR at the dealership for me when I arrived. |

Dont always praise them!
First you dont always get a LR engineer so you get the Std recovery company Second - last time i used them it took almost 2 days to get a car, 1.5 to get a car then another .5 to be given the correct car. Mike |

I have found out what the recall items are in vague terms - it's having a new brake pipe (don't know any more than that) and a new oil pan.
They're sorting them out week tomorrow when they're replacing the dead ABS module. |

Our LR assist is a freelander driven by a technician from my local dealer. Puma 110 - gone
Series III 1973 - going strong |

Brake pipe will be to fix this http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic159.html?highlight=brake+pipe The replacement sump/oil pan is a modified or re shaped oil pan that replaces the original one as that gets clouted by the front axle when maximum articulation occurs. ![]() |
