    8 Speed Transmission lights flashing

    Got in my MY16 D4 tonight and the white light on the transmission ring and around it started to flash intermittently. This happened for about 1 minute, moved the dial between, R, D and N an couple of times without any change.

    Headlight setting on Auto and it was dark

    They are now not on at all, just the red light for the D, N, P etc.

    No errors showing on the IID Tool when i ran up a check

    Anyone experienced this?

    That's it! Thanks, the car is at Brisbane City Landrover today to fix the tailgate. I raised the issue with them so in the next 3 or so return visits they may actually fix it.

    I'm off to Specsavers, I'm sure there is an issue visible on the photo but I can't see it.
