Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most common reason for check engine light on a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar?

• Evaporative emissions system leaks (loose or faulty gas cap) and oxygen sensor wear are among the most frequent triggers.
• Minor issues like fuel trim problems or a failing sensor will often set a fault code before a major failure occurs.
• Ignoring the light can let small faults escalate into damaged catalytic converters or engine components—raising repair costs.
• Our technicians use factory-grade diagnostics to identify root causes quickly and recommend cost-effective repairs that preserve vehicle value.

How long does a check engine light service take?

• Basic diagnostics typically take 30–90 minutes depending on the complexity of stored codes and necessary road testing.
• If parts or further testing are required, we provide an estimated timeline and keep you informed throughout the repair process.
• Choosing Park Place Land Rover often shortens turnaround time, because our technicians are factory-trained and have direct access to OEM parts.
• Warranty-covered repairs must be completed at a certified dealership to preserve coverage; we manage the entire process for immediate and long-term savings.

What does it mean when the check engine light comes on in a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar?

• It indicates the vehicle’s onboard diagnostics (OBD) detected a fault — from emissions systems to ignition or fuel delivery issues.
• Codes can range from simple sensor alerts to misfires that risk catalytic converter damage if left unaddressed.
• Early diagnosis prevents secondary damage; our service team interprets codes, inspects systems, and recommends targeted repairs.
• Repairs covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership; we provide transparent pricing and long-term savings versus ad hoc fixes.

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?

• Confirm the gas cap is tight and intact — a loose cap often triggers an EVAP code and is a simple fix.
• Check for obvious issues: low oil, visible leaks, or unusual noises before driving long distances.
• If the light is steady, schedule a diagnostic; if flashing, stop driving and have the vehicle inspected immediately to avoid severe damage.
• Bring the vehicle to Park Place Land Rover for a proper scan; our factory-trained technicians ensure warranty integrity and optimized long-term costs.
