Warning lights on start up

[David B]

Hi all.
Anybody experiencing a heap of warning lights coming on at start up if you have to do a quick start up? Example finish a trip turn car off but leave key in ignition, click to auxiliary 30 seconds later, wait for all the normal light to to go blank, start car up and all hell breaks loose. Never happens if I lock the car. Only on quick restarts.

Also anybody else get a transmission warning on start up from time to time?

Cheers

I get the same and have since day one eighteen months or so ago. If you turn the engine off, don't allow the system to go to sleep and restart the engine it cycles through all types of system errors on the main info screen. If starting from cold after inserting the key and waiting for most of the Christmas tree lights to cycle off I get an amber triangle with exclamation light remaining on and a transmission error warning on the info screen, a couple of seconds later the triangle and warning cycles off and I can start the car without any further warnings.

Ok, mine is a 23.5 model , sounds about the same as yours. My dealers says they can’t get it to do it. Surely someone has had it fixed, was thinking a loose harness or battery issue. The car drives fine but , and without issues, just these lights.

I suggest its a "develop your own bespoke software for a new car project instead of adapting an existing proven and stable solution" issue. Car runs fine otherwise, its all part of the quizzical world of Grenadier ownership.

I think so, interesting to see if any of the newer models do it.

Have you got an OBD tool? See if there are any faults logged?

This happens to me about once in every ten starts, it seems more likely to happen more if I start the engine with the driver's door open and before fastening the seat-belt (UK -spec vehicle). So far it hasn't been a problem and usually disappears after a few seconds.
