A quick question, does anyone know why the "service" option on the dash menu is blanked, i.e. Won't let me click on it? What options should I see? Late 2009 3.6TDV8. Thanks

It's because the engine is running, it tells you the oil level but you have to leave it for 20 mins after you have switched off for it to work. Switch just the ignition on to read it. It also shows the VIN IIRC.... Pete

Owners Manual also has instructions for oil level reading  Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"
2025MY Defender D350 90 in Silicon Silver on coils
1974 Series 3 Lightweight = "Millie"

You don't have to wait 20 mins -

Ignition on, bonnet open.

Go to oil level through the menus.

When it says "oil level not available" double click the Cancel Cruise Control button and the oil level will be displayed.

Note that it is very sensitive to gradients so make sure the car is on a level surface and also note that to get a good reading you should wait a bit to let the oil drain back into the sump.  Bish.

I thought the oil level menu was only available on the 4.4? 2010 MY Range Rover 3.6 TDV8 Vogue SE - Stornoway Grey with Semi-Aniline Ivory Leather and Piano Black Trim

There is no dipstick on the 5.0 engine... this is the only way to check it's level...  Pete

The oil level option won’t be there on the 3.6, but other options should be. As mentioned already, try it with the engine off. Might get to choose the menu then?

Well finally got to check, indeed the Service option does light up if engine off, disappointed only option is to view the cars Vin number☹️ At least it does work I suppose. 2009 Range Rover Vogue 3.6TDV8, Bournville, Parchment/Navy

Mine doesn’t have much else....

That's all I get on mine, too.

Dunc. The life you have is the only one you'll get; make the most of it.

3.6 has proper dipstick.

My 4.4 only has a dipstick in the driving seat.
