I had taken my new (500 miles) DS in about 3 weeks ago because the check engine light had come on and stayed on for about a week. The service advisor came in and said that it was not on when she pulled it in to the service bay, even though it was on when I parked about 5 min earlier. She said they would check it out anyway, so off I went in my XF loaner.
She called later that day to tell me there was an "exhaust leak" that they had fixed, but they needed to keep it overnight to make sure it was fixed. Not a problem, picked it up, light was off, and away I went.
About a week after that, on my way to Whistler for a ski weekend with a couple buddies, the light came on again about 10 miles into the trip. Holiday weekend and all, couldn't get hold of the service dept to make another appointment, so I called when I got back. Advisor said that JLR is aware of "an issue causing the check engine light to come on repeatedly." She then said that there is no fix available at this time, but she would contact me with any update and that I should just ignore the light if the DS "is running fine."
I'm mostly worried because I thought the car was "running fine" the last time the light came on, and there was an exhaust leak that needed to be repaired. Has anybody else heard of this issue? Thanks!
