Thread: Defender 110 ordered - Feeling excited!

Have you checked the fuse is in correct for the sub-woofer ?

There was a "problem" with Gracie's S.W., when I first tested it,...it made a terrible "vibrating/distorted" sound. I was told about a "packing" piece of plastic inside the underneath of the S.W. that should be removed before use. Put my fingers in there, sure enough there was this plastic "sheet" in there, so pulled it out, and all was fine.
Not sure whether that has anything to do with your issue?

We had the same thing on my 110.

Tomorrow she goes in to have the subwoofer replaced, and as luck would have it, I now have tail light out for them to fix while they're at it.

I really don't want to be on a first name basis with my service manager after a month of ownership...

I hope tomorrow is the end of it for a while

You'll be having them round for barbecues before too long.

Yep, I put mine in for a 30,000 km service recently. I've never had any problems so far (touch wood). When I got it back, I was informed the rear wiper doesn't work.

This was a surprise to me, as it had been working fine about two days previously when it was pouring rain. A bigger surprise was that they didn't fix it! When I asked, I was told, "Just bring it in sometime when you want it fixed, as it's covered under your warranty."

I can't really complain. I've been very happy with their service to date.

At least it's not a major issue, but it did earn a raised eyebrow from me at the time.

I had a similar raised eyebrow experience yesterday when they charged me $3 for a replacement tail light bulb. I understand that bulbs are consumables and aren't covered under warranty, but the car is 4 weeks old and it shouldn't have happened yet. I'm not bothered about the cost, but equally it wouldn't have cost them anything to waive that line item and have a customer that feels a little more looked after.

On the plus side, I now have a working subwoofer and a very nice spare wheel cover. Hopefully that's the last trip to service for a while

They probably didn't have the part in stock. They see you so often, waiting in a chair, that they form a perception that you have nothing better to do, I reckon.
