A week since mine went in. Part still on back order. Still stuck with the Velar (which probably won me an SP30 last night on the M6 too! A lane closure attracted an unnecessary 40mph speed limit which I missed after an initial drop to 50mph

Not good Steve. Is your car un drive-able ? I would be considering using it anyway if it was mobile. Shame they can’t rob a part off one of their demo cars. I mean, why try and sell them? They can’t get them anyway. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

Well I got a phone call yesterday lunchtime - the offending part is arriving at the dealership this morning and I was told to wait for the call this afternoon to go pick it up!
I'll put money on them having not fitted the 110 decal on the bonnet I asked them to though! Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |

F*ck it - with ultimate ironic timing, I just get another call - they've swapped the sensor in and the problem is STILL not fixed - they've now raised a Technical Case with Land Rover (which won't get resolved today) and so now i'm stuck with the bl**dy Velar over the weekend - not happy!
But on the plus side they have put the bonnet decal on. Allegedly. Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |

I had those faults on mine, it was the radar in the front grill that had failed.

Still not got it back - tried and failed (in both directions) to get an update yesterday AND today - will have to call the dealership again tomorrow - we're fast running out of days in September before it becomes a blank month, The journeys section of the LR Remote App tells me it hasn't moved since 17th September so I'm guessing no news is actually bad news...
Much that I hate the Velar, I'm now starting to get amused at having it out this many days is actually costing Guy Salmon / JLR . . .  Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |

Tempting fate but I THINK I'm going to get it back tomorrow! (where's the fingers crossed emoticon?)
I waited 6 hours before posting this after a call from my rep at GS Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |

According to the REMOTE app mine has been about 5 miles from the dealership having the 110 Decal applied - its back at the dealership now so hopefully I'll be getting a call soon to go get it back!!! Steve N | 21MY Defender

They must have a few spare Velar’s Steve, my mate over the road has a Jag I Pace that threw its toys out 6 weeks ago, he’s had a Velar ever since. Same excuse as yours, can’t get the parts.
His is a company car on a lease so he’s wondering what the tax man will say about him having a Velar replacement for his EV for so long, if he ever found out. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV 1966 S2a 109 aka Betsy 1968 S2a 88 aka Bob 2014 Jaaaag F Type 3.0 Supercharged. |

Anyone care to decode what this gibberish means?
I asked for an explanation and got this back
And over 25 days they didn't actually do the complementary Wash & Vacuum... Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |
