Can l ask you where you got that switch with the motorway symbol, or the part number?
I ordered what l thought was the right one, and ended up with a Discovery 2 switch which is the wrong shape.

I’m guessing that question was aimed at me. I made the switch, no one sells one at the moment. See my build thread below for a couple of pics how I did it. Ray

Thanks for the link, but there’s 67 pages on that thread!
Can you tell me what page it’s on?
Cheers.

I think it’s post 2001 when they changed the ECU.
But not 100% sure.

I fitted the Nakatanenga kit to my 2005 TD5 Defender and it works fine.
The kit costs just over £100
But for some reason it’s not listed on the UK site, only the German one. The instructions are in German but they sent me English ones on a PDF file.

It should be an NNN ecu and not an MSB ecu. From the land of the most expensive land rover defenders on planet earth. At �125k for a XS 110 csw and you get to own it only for 10yrs! Please find me a good reason to stay on this island.

The cruise control has transformed long journeys in my 110. We recently drove to Scotland (a round trip of 860 miles) and it was great to set the speed at 65mph and then just steer. After slowing down you can just press the resume button.

I would say it’s the best accessory l have fitted.

FWIW... I have an 2000 MY and would love cruise as well but alas.... Its not cruise but this little mod made long distance driving a tad more comfortable by undoing one of the throttle springs. Its easier on the right leg.

I have modified mine as well, by drilling a new hole for the spring a bit further round, so reducing the tension.

Laughing that’s how I started then I just realized it was two separate springs. So I decided to save myself the drilling 👍🏻 Its a good mod regardless 2010 Range Rover MkIII Autobiography Super Charged (Idris)

It should work with the overdrive with the speed healer fitted, overdrive only normally affects CC in 5th gear, but the speed healer will allow full use of CC.

The CC should not interfere with the workings of the speed healer.
