Land Rover Discovery Sport (L550) Diagnostics
Introduction
The Land Rover Discovery Sport is a popular and versatile compact SUV. As a high-volume model, it has a well-documented set of common faults that can be quickly and accurately identified with the right tools and expertise. Our remote Land Rover Discovery Sport diagnostics service provides the dealer-level insight needed to fix your L550 right the first time.
Top Discovery Sport Faults We Diagnose
- DPF System Issues (2.0 Ingenium Diesel): The ‘Red DPF Full' warning is a very common issue, often caused by a vehicle's drive cycle not allowing for automatic regeneration. We can perform a forced regeneration and, more importantly, diagnose the underlying cause if regenerations are failing, such as faulty sensors or EGR issues.
- AWD / Driveline System Faults: The ‘Special Programs Not Available' or ‘E-Diff Not Available' warnings often point to issues with the Haldex/Active Driveline unit. This frequently requires a fluid service or could indicate a problem with the control module or pump. We can read the specific AWD codes to guide the repair.
- AdBlue / DEF System Errors: ‘Incorrect DEF Quality Detected' or ‘No Engine Starts in XXX miles' are critical faults. We can diagnose whether the issue is a failed DEF injector, a faulty NOx sensor, or a contaminated AdBlue tank, allowing for a precise repair.
- Infotainment & Electrical Faults: From a failing tailgate module to a glitchy InControl Touch screen, we can remotely diagnose the various electrical systems to pinpoint the source of the problem.
