I think 12.2v on a battery is a bit too low!
I'd be putting the battery on a good charger overnight before I was spending any money on anything.
A fully charged battery is about 12.6v isn't it?

That depends where you measure it from, whether the battery is under any load at the time etc. 12.2V is a common voltage read out on the Disco. That’s what mine shows through the IIDTOOL pretty much straight after a full Ctek charge. It would be different if measured disconnected from the car I’m sure
I tried all the suggested remedies to prevent vehicle dropping into "limp home mode" including disconnecting the radio capacitor, replaced the brake light switch, had battery and alternator tested and removed the Transfer Case Control Module to clean out any corrosion, but none of these fixed the problem. I convinced myself that the TCCM was therefore faulty and ordered a replacement from UK.
Each time the vehicle went into limp home the message centre provided useless information and there were 12 fault codes from the OBD which cleared each time the vehicle was restarted therefore I could not drive it to a repairer with codes showing on the OBD.
After several weeks of frustration the problem is now fixed. It was the high pressure fuel pump failing.
This was diagnosed within 2 minutes of speaking with Wael at EuroHaus Prestige in Chullora who sourced the part and repaired the vehicle within 48 hours.
The TCCM has not arrived from UK yet. PM me if you need a TCCM for a D3.
