2010 RRS Software Bugs

Welcome to the forum.

The windshield washer squirt may be to make sure you are awake and paying attention in the morning? :think: Wow, good luck troubleshooting that one... Never heard of such a bug. The other two issues (C/F temperature display change and Sirius defaulting to a particular radio station upon startup) have been reported on this forum by MY2010 owners before. I think forum member Maxdabrit had the Celsius bug and his dealer somehow figured it out? Look into this thread: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=34715 - Land Rover has sort-of acknowledged a problem with the Sirius tuner though a special service message several months ago, saying only that it is investigating the matter with Visteon and to stay tuned - no pun intended - for a fix. So far no TSB appears to have been issued, though.

Re Celsius/Fahrenheit issue where the system reset to Celsius upon every Start. Yes, the dealer (Landrover of Princeton) fixed the issue with the aid or LRNA . I believe it was software related

Talking of dogs , Ill add another some of my pet pee-ves to the thread:

Issue: Recirculation button disengages after a very short period of time.
Fix: Hold Recirc button down until associated light blinks( 3 seconds or so)

Issue: Gas gauge decides to go from Full to Empty in a blink.
Fix: Dealer software.

Issue: Ipod Touch does not receive a charge from cable . ( In fairness this is/was an Apple issue)
Fix: Buy a Scosche connecting block (sorry dont have the link)

Current fun issue: My reversing camera has decide to invert the image it produces( Driver sides objects appear on passenger side of screen image and vice versa).
Fix: Open item with my Dealer and LRNA tech.

So this is only my opinion based on nothing other than my personal experience/research.

I've not had any issues with my 2010 HSE nor did I have issues with my 2008 HSE - it appears (generalizing here) that some issues reported here seem to be more common with SC models? That said, I did have a couple "issues" with Sirius but have also had them countered recently with some logical (at least to my non-techie brain) answers;

Best of Sirius/XM package:
I purchased this as a promo in March for $399 for a lifetime subscription. I do not get any XM stations. While the unit/interface in the car was likely designed to receive Sirius only, I've been told (and read) this is really a Sirius/XM issue not LR. With the merger/acquisition of the two service providers the "new" company has to figure out how to get the service to their customers who paid for it. Think Zappos.com & Amazon or Google & YouTube - these companies merged but customers still have access to all the services from each. Sirius/XM really needs to get their IT team on the ball and straighten this out quick otherwise they will go the way of Pets.com, Webvan and California real estate! :doh:

Sirius screen/last play:
I was having an issue with the top banner of the Sirius screen which indicates if you're on Sat 1, 2 or 3 not matching the bottom banner. However one of the rocket-scientist-tech-heads I work with pointed out that the SW was written this way. He noted it is actually working exactly as it should. I won't go into the details as this post is already WAY too long but it made sense. It really had to do with my perspective/interpretation of how to read the screen. I think the owner's manual is guilty of being vague and/or making too many assumptions.

Cheers for now!
