In the shop again...
This will be #6 trip to the LR dealership for issues. Up to now, most have involved software updates...etc. I brought it in last week as I was getting a clunk/rubbing noise when hitting a small bump or rise in the road. I took the service mgr for a ride and, he heard it as well.....as it was in a couple weeks ago and they couldn't "replicate" the noise, but blamed it on a little kids mirror I had buckled on the passenger headrest..... Interesting as on my way home it did it again. They had been giving me a Jag FType as a loaner, which I didn't like very much....so I called but decided to wait till next oil change. Well...It got really bad. Brought the tech for a ride so he could hear it firsthand.
Turns out it was what I thought from the start...Bad Shock on the rear pass side.
Just throwing this out there in case anyone else hears a similar noise....At least they gave me a Velare as a loaner.

Was this warranty covered?
I have to say if I didn't want the space the D-5 has...I could get into this Velar, I like it.
Wow! That's damn soon for a shock to go bad...had you hit anything significant?
Nope...It's a highway queen. I even take care to dodge potholes. Started out as an infrequent noise and progressed to a knocking/rubbing sound.
Hoping this is it for awhile. I'm also glad the dealer is only about 10 miles from me...
