A week or so later one more - then again, nothing.
I realised that both times this happened not long after giving the car a damn goo ... |

I'm planning to remove the roof rails from my car (2006, with twin sunroofs).
I've seen the drawings for installation of rails.
Seems like I need to just remove the rails, get and fit some of the ... |

I'll remove the wheelarch trims and and anything else loose, to get proper access.

Thanks, both, for your replies.
So, I will clean and condition the leather seats before I fit the covers.
Maybe, then, the ones I bought were discounted as being old stock ... |

Hi,
I got a set of front seat covers recently from LRI (Land Rover interiors) (on Ebay).
Genuine, but discounted.
The fabric is textile on the outer face and smooth waterproof on the back.

Thanks Oldgeezer, that's a new angle.
However, I concluded in the end that the tailgate probably wasn't a factor.
I kept a log of what may have been having a positive effect, to enable eventual star ... |

That's interesting, I hadn't come across any other instance.
Is it solved?
Hopefully, fingers crossed ... one can never be certain until some time has passed.

Sorry (can't get used to auto!) I did mean brake.
Nothing lights up until start is pressed?
Thanks for confirming that, it's what I thought (and what my car does).

Still doing the start-then-die trick, now more often.
Normal starting on about 60-70% of occasions, otherwise it does the start-then-die routine.

Thanks.
It can occur at home or away from home.
I don't think there are radio waves near where the car is parked on my driveway.
