Re: One DRL is half as bright as the other.

By "conicidence" I had my passenger (Left side/Near side) whole LED headlight unit replaced today. A friend had spotted it was dimmer ... I never noticed. When my car was being serviced, I asked them to check, and they said it had indeed failed the limits. JLR asked me to take a photo, the...

Convertible headliner coming undone

My MY2020 convertible roof lining (headliner) keeps on coming unclipped on 1 or more of the 3 bottom tabs (see pics). To clip it back in, I open the roof slightly from fully closed.

Looked on the web and that said there's a problem with 20A, and 19C is the latest. What I haven't found in my 19C is how to conne...
