Driving my 2013 Evoque Prestige today with 23k miles on it, the yellow warning sign on the middle of the dash lit up with "Transmission Fault - Traction Required"
Killed the engine, restarted and then after driving the car some more, it came back on.
Definitely not stuck in low gear like in "safe mode," but felt like I was driving 2wd vs 4wd.
:mad:
I find it hard to believe it's a bad transmission..., maybe bad sensor or some electronic glitch?

Yes, still under warranty.
Dealer Service Advisor said I could still drive it since it's not in fail safe.
I'll know this week, what's up. It'll likely be stuck at the dealer for a week or more.

In San Diego there is only 1 authorized dealer centrally located (Land Rover San Diego).
They sell way more cars than they can service, and that's after they expanded their service department.
It takes their service advisors 1-2 days just for a return call!
Lousy customer service...very frustrating and unprofessional.
They need more competition that's for sure.
