Hi Everyone,
I thought that this problem was licked already through software updates and the installation of some sort of screen...
I was driving my 2013 petrol for about 25 minutes in the rain, parked and left the car running (wife and kids still inside) to crab a coffee... then when leaving, I had to accelerate hard to get into traffic. That's when it happened... the car started to shake like I was driving on rumble strips, and the reduced output warning message was displayed. Let off the gas, then slowly pressed it again, and it was shaking once more... I had to pull over and turned the car off for 30 seconds or so... turned it back on, and all seemed to be ok again when I got back onto the road.
I've had all the software updates applied, and there are no outstanding recalls on my car in Topix. I was under the impression that they installed a mesh screen or something like that on all MY12's/13's in one of the campaigns that fixed the problem??? Does anyone know if we need to have the issue before the screen gets installed, or should it be there already if all campaigns are complete?
Cheers!
How creepy is this... I was on Topix as of about 2 days ago, and no campaigns were outstanding... now, somehow (I never put much faith in coincidence), it is showing as having the "Q255-Water Induced Misfire - Restricted" campaign as being outstanding. I assume that this is the mesh screen that I thought was already installed??? Did others all of a sudden have this campaign show up, and this is actually just a coincidence... or is there some sort of communication back from the car to JLR that we don't know about???
