Is it N118? I think I had done those mid 2019.
Do you by any chance recall the campaign code for the update?
Thanks

Is the oil life remaining and the service reminder now the same? I did the service reset via the manual and it worked, but I'm not sure what the oil life remaining should have gone up to? I think it moved it up to something like 12,750 miles?

Do you happen to remember how many miles driven between service?

It was 16k miles (or 12 months) at one point, that is what it says in my owners manual I believe, but I do remember reading that JLR moved this number in a bit to accommodate for the fuel dilution issue that can pop up on repeated short trips (when active regen gets prematurely terminated due to short trips.)

Seems that your 2020 is acting normal. At lease you are getting 16k miles interval working.
Even with a dealer service reset on mine, it went to 0 miles in 3000ish real miles. Then with the posted reset method, I get something (thinking 8000 but not sure).
Then after another 1500miles, it went to 0 and come back to something less than last time after a reset.

I wasn't aware there were two service reset until I see that the Foxwell has two options in service resetting. Worth noting is that one of them is diesel only, marked as oil service reset.
I finally got Foxwell to work with me and state that they will give me a test version soon...

Default Always 8000 miles on my Td6

My Td6 has been 8000 mile interval from day one. What other capability dies the diagnostic tool have? Can you shut off TPMS?

I have a Foxwell 530 I think it is that I bought for the EPB with my F10 BMW that I recently sold. Would like to know more about what all it may do for me before I paid for the Land Rover functionality; let us know when Foxwell publishes their update for the D5. I would never suggest anybody run 16k miles OCI's simply because of the poor diesel quality in the US, at least. 8k or 12 months is probably as far as you ought to push it. Manual also says to replace fuel filter every 12 months as well which is little soon, but again, with the general poor diesel quality in the US, probably not a bad thing to do.

quick update from most recent dealer visit.
Dealer performed a control module software update on ECU and associated controls. Miles remaining reset to 16000. After driving 40 miles or so, dropped to 15260miles.
So the service indicator was reset but the behavior is still the same. I expect it to reach 0 miles in about 4000 actual miles.

Mentioned previously, i had purchased a Foxwell NT650 to try out. It has 2017+ Discovery on the menu but shows cant communicate when I try.
After a long hassle, support sent me a test version, which seems that they took the setting from 2017+ RR to Discovery. It is able to communicate but come out with a ECU not supported message.
In summary, I believe it would require the test engineer to physically find a car to play with to get it right. Which is probably impossible for TD6 since they are almost none exist in China.

Yeah, I have little faith in my Foxwell. It seemed like it would only intermittently work on my F10 BMW when I needed to change pads in the rear brakes.

Probably want to resort to the IDII Gap diagnostic tool, that's probably the best out there.
