Activating FBH in Testbook

Does anyone know where the option to activate the FBH is in Testbook? Took the car to my local Indy yesterday and we couldn't find it anywhere in any of the sections. I made a call to the Land Rover dealers in Birmingham and they didn't know either.
If anyone knows, I'd be grateful

I don't fancy spending £290 just to activate FBH!

but how much will a dealer/garage charge you to do that job......

its an investment cos it will clear faults especially he dreaded suspension ones, and you can do other stuff with it as well..have a look on the GAP site ,enter your year and use the drop down menus to see all the functions..

Not that I can see, no. Probably because of the lack of diesels in the USA

Ideally you want to get some with a Faultmate as it will be easier to enable with that or an autologic, a lot of indies have these so could be worth asking one. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

I've called 3 dealers and 2 indys. None of them know how to do it !
I've lived without one for 4 years- might as well call it a day.

i'm convinced that you do use more diesel [less mpg] when the fbh is in use so its not such a bad thing not having it noddy.. ... - .- -.

I'm convinced the other way as it warms the engine up so much quicker, even better if used before hand as they don't burn much fuel when in use.

Maybe a trip to Craig would be a better use of your time and build it into a day trip to take the mrs away Smile FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Nope Stan, Kingpleb is absolutely correct.

A diesel motor is a huge, inefficient pump before it warms up. The little FBH runs at max efficiency nearly instantly and actually uses less fuel and reduces emissions vs. a cold start. Webasto has literature on this somewhere...
