Hi well, all of a sudden all my warning lights have come on (still drives normally). ABS, HDC, Pedestrian Air Bag, Lane Departure, AES, Park Brake, Seat Belt, No engine management light, thank goodness. The AA couldn't help. Phoned Land Rover only said bring it in (first availability to look at it 28th February!!!!!!!!!!) As i say still dives as is should. can anyone throw some light on the possible problem, please.
I'm going out on a limb here, but check the flux capacitor in the glovebox, renowned for going on the fritz.
Failing that, what model and year? Guessing D4 or D5 but worlds apart in terms of tech.

Hi, joking aside you will need to stipulate what vehicle, what engine, what year, what spec.
The majority of the expertise on here relates to older vehicles without pedestrian air bags, but someone may be able to help.
In the meantime I suggest that you connect up a diagnostic tool, even if just a cheap OBDII reader to see if there are any fault codes.
If it is new enough to be under warranty then let LR sort out the problem, and rather than telling them it is driving fine (how do you know?), tell them you have ABS and Seat Belt failure warnings (ie urgent safety concerns) and you should get some preferential treatment. If not, find another dealer.

Welcome to the forum.
Might be prudent to post year/model etc...

Yes, and expertly i think bull bars are all the protection my Discovery needs from pedestrian collisions, then a spade to bury the body
Duh, sorry its a 2015, Discovery Sport HSE, Luxury. When i say drives normally hasn't gone into limp home mode, etc. i haven't test the pedestrian air bag yet, think its against the law to deliberately hit someone ( although i can think of a few people who need it ). Lane depature nope i am not going to let anyone overtake me!!!!! ABS will find some ice shouldn't be too hard.
Hi
Was also going to say ref diagnostics , had a look on discovery sport forum for u but see you’ve already found it, lol

One of the best diagnostic readers to own is made by Gap iid, alas they are around £420 but pay for themselves very quickly , got one for my D3 and wouldn’t be without it
https://www.gap-diagnostic.com/products/iidtool/
If u decide to get one would email them to ensure ur year and model is covered
Hopefully the dealer will be able to book u in sooner
Plse let us know how u get on

Probably a dead end, but have you checked the quality of the battery output? Above 12.5V at rest, above 14v when charging; are both battery terminal tight? Modern cars are very dependant upon the quality and wiggliness of the amps they recieve and it could be something very simple.
