Gearbox fail - bugger

4k miles in.....gearbox fail

Not sure how to post pics up here, so here is a link to my view today....

The car was loaded up with the family, food/wine/presents for a trip to see relatives on Boxing Day....got in the car, turned it on.....nothing!

LR Assist were excellent though, had a dude at my gaff within 30 mins, he did all he could but suspects a faulty gearbox module...so got me a brand new Vogue SE delivered the day after, and the car was taken to LR Chipperfield this morning.

I've had 43 cars in the last 8 years, and 5 break downs......all of them on different LR products. Ho hum

Bad news on a new car, however i wouldnt mind wafting about in that courtesy car.

Oh boy...another one.

There have been a few on here that have reported gearbox issues.

Is that manual or auto - petrol or diesel?

Auto / Diesel 2.2 SD4

Sorry to hear that and do please let us know the cause.

Same thing happened to me in my Jag XF when it was about 6 months old.

Got a call from LR Chipperfield an hour ago, faulty gear selector module

Part ordered

Back on the road all sorted tomorrow

Good work
