Had a talk to the man at Utility Campers today.
Not much help for you though.

No cranking at all, hot wired starter and turned but no start.
Towed (Ex Ceduna) as I said and no idea as to cause given.(Dealer spent a lot of time on it,with a good wrap given).
Selling dealer (Just out of Melb) has no idea either.

Last week while they were away it wouldn't start (nothing on key).
Left unlocked o'nite, locked/unlocked with fob and all good

Dealer said "if it does it again bring it back"
Handy if up the high country or out in the simpson.

just a thought....

we had a problem with a radio at work that wasnt holding cipher or freqs.

when the memory battery was tested it tested ok volts wise on a meter but once it was put on the load tester it failed dismally.

could be a similar thing.

so even though the garage couldn't find any issues Land rover have asked they keep the car and investigate.

Now my car came out from a service not that long ago and also only came out from clearing an EGR fault about 4 days ago....I wonder if they have had any software updates recently????? seems a bit odd that this has come apparent all of a sudden with more than one car..

Although I guess drover has had the issue for longer....

To Alien is your friend puma an 09 model too?

I'm not usually prone to posting off topic as a matter of principle and because we need a little levity here it goes:

If you'd bought a 109" Series III you wouldn't have this problem.

(apologies Dave but you started it)




Carry on: I am watching this thread with interest

actually she could have had any of the 80,88,107,109,120 inch wheel base rovers, any of the county, perentie, early disco,tdi deefer, td5 deefer, early range rovers or infact any other company that took one look at it an went

No, wed rather do without or do it mechanically than do it with lucas stuff.

Gotta be honest tho, I havent ever had an ignition problem with fozzy so this lucas stuff cant be too bad.

I just pick the PUMA from its 10,000k service. First time it has ever seen the inside of a workshop since it was purchased in November 08.

Had a soft ware up date for the engine (Q 068 version 4 “Engine Lacks Power”), made heaps of difference, Turbo lag all but gone, loads more power and much more drivable. (Thanks for the tip Dullbird)

Service Consultant was not able to find any faults relating to the "No start" issue, surprise surprise, but he is confident that the soft ware up date will fix it.

I wish I shared his optimism, time will tell.
