Have you gone in for the N400 ground stud recall? New D5 Owner Heads Up Regarding N400 Recall - Land Rover Forums - Land Rover Enthusiast Forum. Just a thought.

Yeah, [reported elsewhere] the stud thing started with multiple system failures, MMI goes berserk, sudden jerking motor operation, barely make it off the road, DEAD! Nothing. DOA! Call the tow truck. Happened 3 times. They had it 4 mths total. Remote start was another symptom. Started with battery replacement twice. Alternator. The ground wire. The terminal on the ground wire. The terminal on the ground wire to a different type plating. Added a star washer. FINALLY, just replaced the ground stud itself. No problems since.

UPDATE REPAIR DONE;
Picked up my Landrover Discovery 5
They performed the recall for the Ground Stud. I havent looked at it yet but it was done. They performed my 1st service oil change.
They said the needed to do updated on software for Body Control Module and Telematics Module.
I went over the truck. Locked the doors and hit the remote start form he app. It worked. Been driving it for a day or so and seems fine now.
I hardly drive his vehicle as I drive a Tesla 2014 Tesla Model S p85+. Anyway thanks to all who gave me input.
I hope my input can help others. Anyway if your vehicle is on recall list don't wait, that lack of ground on negative battery terminal will create a large resistance and kill your battery and other systems as well.
