Drive Cycles: Notes

CAUTION: During confirmation test drive it is important to pick a route that is prudent for specified vehicle speeds, and for stop and go driving. Ensure weather and traffic conditions will not impede required conditions of confirmation test drive.
NOTE: It is important to follow each instruction for each drive cycle. Failure to perform each instruction under conditions and time period specified may require repeating confirmation test drive. Before turning ignition switch to OFF position at completion of confirmation test drive, recheck for any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) using Land Rover TestBook or OBD-II scan tool.

Begin all repairs by retrieving Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and confirming customer complaint. See RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. Perform appropriate diagnosis and repair. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION  and appropriate DTC test. After repairs are completed, allow engine to cool and perform specified DRIVE CYCLE.
