I often think the 405 is like driving a pc on wheels, ok most of the time, plays up some of the time, sometimes reverts to normal after swiitching off and on but eventually needs professional help. In your case though, I'd be straight on to the MD. |

I used to get this on my 1st L322 15 years ago, disconnecting the battery negative lead for a few seconds and quickly reconnecting it cleared the issue - in this case it was damp in the rear spare wheel well that caused the issue 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |

So the AA came, plugged in his diagnostic tool and said "there is a suspension fault" - thanks for that

Mine also behaves just like a PC at times and as robelar suggested turn it off and on has solved a number of things for me. Two recent ones I can remember:

Isn't there an over the air update on the later models? Mine updates but it may be just the infotainment system. I don't know if it can do more involved stuff.

There maybe some software updates that can be downloaded like that, not sure but will ask. As for the swap, did you have a cash amount I would need to pay for the 17MY in blue or were you thinking of a straight swap lol "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car. "OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car. "HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence. "TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you. |
