The Defender learns routes you take and all journeys are recorded on the incontrol app.

Hi J77
Thanks for that info, I'll have a look and see what we've got. Now for the confession, wifey and I are both in our mid 70's and have been serial Discovery owners since 1990 (doing our best for British industry). But I guess you can imagine we're not the most up-to-date techos. My wife mainly drives the Land Rover (and loves 'em to bits, it's her car). She's a regular rambler that takes her to some out of the way start points and doesn't necessarily return home straight away and so finds following her tracks very handy for getting back to where she may have started from. I'm sure she wouldn't mind me saying but she isn't the world's best navigator, so really she would like to be able to look at the satnav and see where she has just come from. By looking up the incontrol app will we be able to enable tracking actually on the car? Anyhow, thanks for your speedy reply I'll see what I can do, pity LR assist couldn't tell me that.

Hi Bob
I’ve yet to get my Defender, but there’s a few on here who have, they’ll keep you right on the tech. |

Hi my navigation is blank and does not load any maps. I live in Singapore. I have found the navigation service is HERE Navigation, do they provide support for Singapore? This is a parallel import car so I am not sure if service is restricted to UK.

Yesterday I was driving closed Forestry Trails and not only were all the Galloway Forest tracks in the database but the “lady in the dash” was able to create a turn by turn route guidance along them back to the Visitor Centre I started from.
Additionally on the drive there and back she routed me over a fantastic 20 mile long single track unclassified road recently resurfaced over the tops of the Galloway hills - if ever you are in SW Scotland the back road from Glentrool Village to Cloyntie is a magic drive, can be done at relatively high speed too - plenty of twisty bits but also a few wandering sheep on the sides of the road. Only met up with one other car in both directions too.

Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! Last edited by Tim in Scotland on 4th Oct 2021 9:45am.

I've sure I've done that road a couple of times after a drop into the Visitors Centre at Glen Trool - it is stunningly beautiful drive
Last time we had stopped in a cottage in New Luce and drove straight out of the top the village to ultimately reach that road (via the main road dogleg) which is equally a stunning drive. And back to the OP - I've rooted trough my Google Timeline and found the day I last did it - 22nd August 2016. Due to the patchy phone service of course the actual run on that road was missed but I've bunged it back in in red Click image to enlarge So if you're on Android turn on your Google Timeline. And keep it turned on. Generally it will always help you follow your tracks back to where you've been! I turned mine on, on 26th December 2013.

Do we need a “roads to drive before you die” section?
The road from St John’s Town to Dalmellington is also a great drive but can be busy as it’s an A road There are two great off-roading routes just off it but due to Scottish Land Access laws you need the land owners permission to drive them, unless you can find an official Forest Drive but they can be driven by sports cars if you feel like ragging your MX5 Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come 2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior.

I found the solution it is via the navigation software manual update link https://www.landrover.com/ownership/incont...load.html. However the map region is tagged to the vehicle VIN. Now I just need someone to help me with a VIN with SG maps  |

Sorry to have bombed this thread, but since I found the solution I thought I will post it. I contacted L Radvice lradvice@jaguarlandrover.com and they helped me find a solution to this problem, they updated their servers which enabled SE Asia to my maps downloader . I downloaded it, copied it to a thumb drive using the MapDownloader and manually installed it using the front USB port and that fixed the problem. Now have all SE Asia maps. |
