Thanks for the video mate, I just picked my brand new one up 2 weeks ago where I live in N.E. China, no handover from the dealer! ( Just the keys ) Trying to figure out everything, but at least I've managed to change the language to English in some of the menus, your video helps a lot too! I've been relying on TH-cam videos for help, but many of the specs are different for the models built in, and on sale, in China. Amazing vehicle so far however, best I've ever owned, wife loves it and the kids love it too! I look forward to more hints from you...Cheers
@@philscars It's the 250 S R-dynamic but different specs to other countries it seems. 20" alloys, black leather with wood inserts ( no choice! ), no diesels here either, thankfully petrol is about 60-70% of the Uk price but I would have gone for a diesel given the choice. We paid extra for a kind of comfort pack with heated and cooled seats, lumbar and three zone, but...no cooling included! That was a mistake apparently...Still, not complaining, it's great.
I just purchase a 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Discovery Sport SE does this SUV come with the changing interior lights and if it does how or where can I find this? And my World windows didn't want to work and I have that.😭
Hi Nilda, Ambient interior lighting is often an optional feature If your car has it, the options to change the colours is in the Settings Global Closing of the windows feature is not allowed in some countries Ask your local dealer to clarify / confirm the status of this for you
Guaranteed to go wrong soon lol, had several land rovers including the sport, love the cars but cant deal with the reliability issues any more, going back to lexus.
Is there any tire pressure menu/information ? Where you can see the tires pressure, reset , etc ? I 've a 2021 D. Sport, and I cant find anything about it.
My garage told me this car is rubbish and to get rid of is asap. But I’ve had no issue so far and it s a good drive I’m confused can you advise why he said this
Tips and hints. Dont buy unless you really love the brand. Lots of problems especially to do with timing chain, DPF and electronic issues. However if these cars are your thing then enjoy 👍🏼
Morning Phil, How do you get the Analogue Clock to display on the Home Screen - Tried (Lots 😂 ) but cant find it anywhere. Hope you can remember and let me know. Cheers
Hi Trevor, if you touch and hold anywhere on the edge of the Home Screen , you can then change the apps that are there, you will probably need to delete one of them first by dragging to the trash can, you will then see a bunch of little squares where you can put a new app, touch one of these, then you will see the apps you can have, scroll across about 3 screens and you should then see a clock, select it and it should then appear on the Home Screen.
@@philscars Thank you Phil - I'd been fiddling "off & on" but following your reply I now have EXACTLY what I want - Nav / Analogue Clock / Phone on the Home Screen 1. I look forward to viewing future videos from you. Thank you again Trevor
Best thing to do with a Discovery Sport is get shot of it, spent £3k for service, gas struts on boot and particle filter assembly. only to be told the the differential and timing change required replacement. That would be the second timing chain the first being changed at the same time as the turbo failed. Landrover did offer 50% discount...having a laugh...leaving just a €7k bill to keep a 105k mileage vehicle on the road...sold it to a trader who sold it on without any of the repairs. Mercedes 220 of the drive now replacing my 5 Landrover...but never again
"dead Lock" is when the doors are unable to be opened from the inside after locking, this stops someone breaking the glass and trying to open the door with the inside lever
I can give you a big tip. They may have weak timing chains and may destroy the engine. Look into it. Do you really wish to purchase a vehicle which may have such issues. Ingenium engines. Should have stayed with ford boys.
No aconsejo este coche. La marca es premium pero solo en el precio no en la calidad.Tengo un discovery Sport del 2021 y ya me lo entregaron con un defecto de fabricación en el sistema de sonido. Todavía lo tengo pendiente de reparar ya que debido al brexit es complicado la importación de piezas de recambio. Mientras tanto la marca no da solución, solo esperar. Escoged otra marca
Translation: I do not advise this car. The brand is premium but only in the price not in the quality, I have a Discovery Sport from 2021 and they already delivered it to me with a manufacturing defect in the sound system. I still have it pending repair since due to Brexit it is difficult to import spare parts. Meanwhile the brand does not give a solution, just wait.

Thank you! I am researching more as we speak!
Great video thanks
Any idea how to raise or drop the suspension.
I have sport 2017plate td4 hse
Thanks again
Sorry I don’t know
not possible on a Disco sport.
We've got the HSE model too, I can't believe that we never knew about the rear view camera on the mirror.
Glad to help!
Volume up/down works faster when rotating finger all the way around touchspace, clockwise etc. instead of just on the left....
good tip!!!
Brilliant video. Got a 18 plate HSE arriving next week and this video has given me some amazing tips. Thanks for posting.
glad you enjoyed it! what colour did you go for?
@@philscars White with black leather interior. Absolutely loving it, it's such an amazing drive.
This stuff is all in the Manual.
The mirror is called ClearSight I believe not Clearview. Clearview is a brand of towing mirrors.
I know, but not everyone reads the manual from cover to cover so I was being helpful
Hi Phil when I hold my unlock button down all the windows open but then when I lock and hold lock button all the windows don’t close please can u help
did you enable "global opening" AND "global closing" in the menu?
Fantastic video mate
Thank for your comments, glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the useful tips. I had no idea I could create my own Home Screen and never worked out what “Universal Opening / Closing” was.
Glad you found it useful!
Great Video with Insight and proper guidance, easy step by step to follow now i am convinced to get a Disco Spot HSE
You will love it!!
Thanks for the Video. I have a Discovery 5 2020, and all your tips worked perfectly!
Great! thanks for watching!
can you do an updated version for the 2024 model when it is available I am about to order one ! Cheers
Great tips! I have a 66 plate HSE Lux coming next week
glad you enjoyed! you will love it!
This was indeed helpful. Thanks a lot
Glad it was helpful!
Really good video, thanks I'm looking to buy a disco sport and your hints and tips will come in handy 👍
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Very useful thanks

Hi , what about interior light settings on a 2016 sport , so all come on and go off when doors are opened or locked
I just purchase a 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Discovery Sport SE does this SUV come with the changing interior lights and if it does how or where can I find this? And my World windows didn't want to work and I have that.😭
Hi, I have the HSE and that doesnt have ambient lighting either! I think it was an optional extra....not sure what you mean by "World windows"?
Hi Nilda,
Ambient interior lighting is often an optional feature
If your car has it, the options to change the colours is in the
Settings
Global Closing of the windows feature is not allowed in some countries

What model year is your doscp sport? It doesn't have the dial gear selector?

Sorry to hear that, I only had mine 18 months from new and didn’t have any problems
Thank you very much, Sir
You are most welcome
Gas pump, pulley, wheel bearings, diff and wheel bearings to name a few that I’ve changed from my 2020 discovery sport
Can you cover AEB as i think it’s a major problem.
Hi, unfortunately, I dont own the car anymore :-(
What hits and tips to help it be more reliable? Looking at a 2020 S base no frills!
My hint and tip is stay well clear of Land Rover Discovery Sport.
I’ve just spent 8K fixing mine !
I agree it’s the worst ever mi e is a 2020 and it spends more time at the repair shop than with me now they are telling me I need axles
Every time I start I’ve to redo my ac
Always have to press recycle button
Could I set it so upon starting i don’t have to do that?
Im not sure really, maybe you cant force it on all the time....
What’s a dead lock??
"dead Lock" is when the doors are unable to be opened from the inside after locking, this stops someone breaking the glass and trying to open the door with the inside lever
Fucking awesome I subscribed agratitude
I’ve got one
Nice!
