So here is my quandary. I have just got my new car which is a 3 yr old Disco Sport and I love it! I wish I could say th same about the garage we bought it from .They were all over us when we bought it a few weeks ago but now every request for help is just brushed off and I am made to feel like an idiot.. I have read the manual extensively but still cannot find what I am looking for so am reaching out in Thai forum in the hope someone with experience can help.
The first problem is that the auto stop/start stoppec working a few days after we got the car. I was told it was my fault because I don’t drive very far so that battery was not charged enoug, this sounded quite logical so left it until last weekend when we did a round trip of over 400 miles. When we got home and it still wasn’t working I called the garage again and the sales,an rather patronisingly told me “well, what do you expect, it was only one trip”! I might be blonde but I am not stupid and I am sure a trip of that length, in good weather and daylight should be enough to fully charge a battery.
2nd problem, all of a sudden the interior lights and the footwell lights do not come on when the door is opened. I have searched everywhere to see if I have inadvertently touched a button or changed a setting but can find nothing and no reference in the manual either. So, I don’t know, is it me or is this another fault, it is driving me nuts!
if anyone who has taken the time to read this can offer any suggestions I would be really pleased to hear from you
Many thanks
