Software upgrade
Currently have problems relating to software upgrade .
It would appear that the latest 2.1.3 has been downloaded by some owners but with problems appearing — has now currently been suspended.
Returned my new Defender to dealer to rectify but told no action can be taken until LR release the new upgrade after they have successfully tested .
The saga continues.
Any other news from owners would be appreciated.

My 21MY has yet to do any updates, but my 18MY Velar had all sorts of software issues, updates being suspended etc. They said Pivi would be far superior but it seems to be heading the same way. 23.5MY 90 D250 X-Dynamic SE, Pangea Green

Many thanks for your comments.
Seems so strange to launch updates before adequate testing.

However it seems most people believe that the errors are being caused by downloading via wireless — when it’s the popular opinion is that it should be conducted at the dealership via hardwire .

All comments are appreciated.

My MY22 90 HT has completed 2 x software updates using embedded 4G SIM. No issues. Just followed the simple instructions and left it to it.

My 2020 D240 downloaded 2.1.3 no problem but it took a couple of goes to get it installed and then it seemed to download 2 further updates that also installed ok and showed the blue dot icon until I viewed the details of which there were none except to say that the car was successfully updated! Updates were downloaded on my drive so I don’t know if the car used 4G or my home WiFi that it is also set up to use when in range. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Not able to update
My D200 Defender which I just got showed me that I could download updates. The updates just refused to install. So after looking through all the channels I did a System Restore. After I did the System Restore I get the dreaded your updates did not install message but the software update shows everything is up to date with 2.0.8 Confused





Not sure if there is a defined path to fix it.

I also have other issues like I am unable to select a WiFi and my navigation is blank Mad
