with a MY11, you wont be getting into a "warm" cabin. With only a 17 minute cycle time (come on LR - how much extra would the full 30 minutes take from a proper battery to adequately warm the cabin....), it will be cool at best on really cold mornings. |

Battery issues on the Range Rover are legendary why JLR can't address this problem once and for all god only knows, surely not that difficult or expensive to have a secondary battery fitted to power ancillary things like FBH to give some decent cabin heat times leaving the main battery for start ups The forums premier drug dealer and human trafficking consultant

^ The FBH update was a reduced cycle time and the battery was a gel replacement...true it all helped but it's more of a patch than a real fix as Ramble says in really cold weather the cabin is still a cold place to be in until the engine heat kicks in The forums premier drug dealer and human trafficking consultant
