I became frustrated to read of a brake Modern (ish) Morgan brake light issue that seemingly required two or more dealerships to resolve what seemed like comms issues in the Mogs interfaces...!
Some time back My good lady`s JLR Evoque threw a digital fit and the advice was not to drive it thus it had to be flat bedded home, the earliest it could be booked in to JLR was THREE WEEKS....after which it was picked up by another flat bed to take it to the dealership...The fault was found to be the front O/S front wheel speed sensor Cost £480. Breakdown insurance covered the flat costs bed both ways two ten mile trips on the flat bed would have otherwise been added to the £480 bill.
The other day a similar situation arose
AEB not available
HDC not available
Stability control not available
Forward alert not available
Handbrake also reported a malfunction
ABS fault
And to finish off check engine light !!!
Phoned JLR local agent from where we bought the car and who repaired it last time, they said it would be SEVEN WEEKS before they could book it in...!!!
Took it to a friend who runs a garage and has an expensive professional scanner that he pays a monthly fee for to include updates for all makes and models.
It identified the N/S front wheel sensor, which I fitted.....
All alarms cleared after a few yards drive.... Job done
Sensor cost £22 fitting time call it an hour...
The digital nonsense is a licence to create work and print money for dealerships
