Warning of open rear doors now comes on every time I drive away from standstill.
Tyre pressure monitor on rear left wheel alarming for low and high pressure.

May be a TPMS fault, but you can try resetting the TPMS Recommended Cold Pressure (RCP) value which (re)baselines the starting value used for monitoring.

Inflate to your desired cold tyre pressures, or as per the placard for your wheel size.
Ignition ON.
Vehicle stationary.
On the infotainment screen: Offroad > Temperature > Three bars in the top right corner next to Temperature> Reset RCP.

I was quite confident there’d be a well packed toolbox and some tasteful, sporty handling machinery. What entendre? No idea what you mean.

Average penis size...

…see, we grenadier owners are secure in ourselves; no monster-truck compensator mechanism at play

I have to actually get in mine now

Forgot to mention gift from dealer of waterproof unsinkable backpack/cooler bag

DaveB · Nov 2, 2023

I have the front tow hitch under the flip up number plate.
It is an insert in the standard winch mount and is rated at full 3500kg
Confirmed it includes all the wiring for the winch and the hardware to retrofit it later
Not the wiring for a trailer plug however so you won't be reversing down the highway towing a trailer.

Earlier deliveries missed out... RR also talked about a device to go with one's key to help find it if it was misplaced ... was that mentioned ?

Great info...

how did you confirm the wiring is present? I'm presuming there's no plug as such....

Shit, my wife is much smaller than me but only weighs 10kg less, therefore I will have to sell my Grenadier and buy a Suzuki Jimny
(Excellent 4x4 by the way!)

Just ordered my wife a Suzuki Jimny. It’s on the way.

Mine did this at first too, Agent adjusted the sensor bit and now solved.

Your survival bag when you drive into the 801mm deep creek and the vehicle sinks.
Test it first. Some of those freebie bags leak.

I asked the dealer who said it was behind the hand rail cover

I believe the contents come in sealed glass bottles, so should be ok

I have had the tyre pressure warning constantly from rear left tyre.
I adjusted tyre pressure until they were all the same and then reset the TPMS.
I left the vehicle parked for a couple of hours and then checked again.
Rear left tyre still alarming as low despite the fact it was highest of all 4 before reset and exactly the same after.
Rear right tyre was one in direct sunlight late in the afternoon.

Interesting I drove 31 kms from Hervey Bay to my place and it took 31 minutes.
Part of that was at 100 kmh and I also accelerated pretty hard away from the lights just to see how it responded.
11.6 l/100 kms is pretty good

Sitting in the car in back yard with motor running and aircon on after it had been parked in direct sunlight for a couple of hours.
took only a couple of minutes to get the internal temp down to 24 from 30 outside.

Given you're not close to your agent you could take it to a local tyre place to swap your rear wheels from left to right. If it's a wheel sensor issue the fault will follow the wheel. Pass on the result to your agent.
