Buckle up…Today we have another fancy Euro SUV to diagnose…
A clean 2018 Land Rover Discovery with only 22k miles!
Customer said that most of the time the car REFUSES TO CRANK.
Also the radio SPEAKERS stopped working when this problem started early this year.
Local Dealer and Indy shop in Missouri couldn’t figure it out for 3 MONTHS, so he had it towed to PA 17 hours away!! WHAT?!
Pressure is on…can we make heads or tails of this computerized contraption?
KINGBOLEN K10 (Updated THINKTOOL PROS) ***ONLY $860 with COUPON!!***

A perfect symbol to illustrate the continuing Fall of the British Empire. Triumph motorcycles had the good sense to build their bikes in Thailand. Land Rover? Who knows where they are built?
Yhe fact you need an app to service your car is near peak dystopia
WOW, did I screw up, I watched part 2, before part 1…..Bye
Gotta love Ford Motor Company for this . Unbelievable how many POS they are putting out.
Shocking easy fix for a dealer like you said YET..whatever dealer this car sat at for months couldn’t figure it out?? Umm do they not look up TSB bulletins? Apparently NOT!
So SAD
so serious ivan went after it shirtless!!! vladamir putin would be proud
waay too many control modules on this vehicle plus its a POS land Rover….good luck Ivan on this one
I don't get the part "almost brand new" It's 6 yrs old. Here at the dealer, might as well be 60 yrs.
Probably they leave the key inside or too close by and that drains the battery due that is working to be ready all this time
One thing I find really surprising is that those modern cars refuse to start, but they never inform the driver *why*. Even if it was just a generic fault with some more details stored in a fault code — on a crank inhibit condition you would expect it to throw some kind of "crank inhibited – code XYZ" message. Not just shut off like nothing happened.
Hey Ivan
I followed your instructions when I was having trouble with the EPB on my 2015 Mazda CX5. I followed the Mazda instructions step by step to put the braking system into service mode and the bloody thing still went wrong (one side brake on and one side brake off) followed your online video and managed to sort it out.
Thanks. Tom Liverpool UK
Buy a bland rover learn to walk ..
Who in there right mind would own one of these out of the warranty period? Just rubbish technology
I'm wondering if someone pulled the 40 amp fuse and then put it back in the wrong place -easy to do. And I wonder what a scope would show on the "E" comm bus…. and whether the existance of comms coincides with the thing cranking. What would happen to this car without Ivan??????
These things are like a brick on wheels, and I am British!
Sorry, Dave but I can't start your overpriced piece of status symbol junk.
Might have been worth checking for actual signs of water/flood ingress at the beginning. At least there's a paper owner's handbook – what scares me is getting a car where it's only available online, also given the complex electronics how available they will be a few years after vehicle production ends especially where anticipated lifetime demand is so hard to predict.
Mysterious, random, 'unfixable' faults are standard equipment on Landrovers.
You have to wonder if the TCU allows the car to be turned off remotely.
Wonder why people say these are junk? Wellah!
You're going to need a bigger shop and a couple more techs. Because most of your audience including me will be bringing our cars and trucks to you and avoiding the dealers from the get go..
I could easily afford that vehicle, BUT I would NOT spend my money on that over complicated mess of modules, wires, switches and motors! NOT A CHANCE! My daily driver is an extremely well maintained 2010 model that looks and drives like new and has only let me down once. The issue was easy to diagnose and inexpensive to repair. It's the top of the line for it's make/model, yet isn't packed full of all of that overly complicated automated garbage. I have no idea why people think they need all of that potentially ultra fail mode junk. You're just asking for trouble.
Even Ford gave up on owning Land Rover!!!
Anyone who buys a land rover, deserves whatever he gets.
