OK, tonight I get a text from my wife that the car has (yet again ) thrown a wobbly. She had come back from a decent drive (20 miles), no problem.

It could be unrelated but I got a "HDC inactive" warning on my dash because my tracking was out, the steering wheel didn't sit quite straight either when driving in a straight line. The reason I say this is because if you say the steering is heavy this could be something to do with the tracking. There are sensors on each wheel reading the speed which in turn all link into the HDC system along with steering wheel angle sensors so that the HDC knows which wheel to brake and how much etc that they are extremely sensitive to wheel alignment. Might be worth suggesting a 4 wheel alignment to your land rover dealer... |

OK, no HDC inactive errors displayed, the green car going downhill icon is permanently showing on the instrument panel, HDC switch has been cycled through on / off and battery was replaced in April / may this year together with new alternator.
