15 times is alot if you think about it, if LR did it every service, (assuming 12000kms), for the 100,000km warranty period, that'd still only be 8 times.

thats true I suppose but then lets hope that this patch solves some issues as the last one caused some...

If it takes them a couple of goes to get it right then that 15 could go very quickly....but then again they were very quick at quarantining the last one I think it was 4/5days after its release...so I guess it wouldn't of gotten in to many cars in that time anyway so yeah you have a good point there.

I'll contact the dealer and find out what I can. All they said was that it was a new software patch, installed into the vehicle's computer, which remapped the injector operation along with a few other tuning mods.

As I say - the vehicle is quieter on cold startup - no diesel chatter, although mine was relatively minor anyway judging from other's comments.

It is a completely new piece of software though.

Well I contacted the dealer - they couldn't tell me a thing. No code number - nothing. So all I know is what has been stated already.

Yep thats what I suggested.It softens the tune,if that makes any sense until the engine temp is up.I had to do the same thing to my Tdi as it didn't like the cold desert mornings over here.Looking forward to finding out how your ''new'' puma works out Dullbird. Pat
