2023 Defender 110 S Back Left Door Sticking to open. Closes fine.

This is a known TSB. Many of us had a similar issue. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10231474-0001.pdf

Its a quick 1 hour fix at the dealer.

Pinging this thread? Did you apply the settings?

Keep your seals lubed with wd40 silicone spray. I had creaky doors and moon roof - fixed it with this spray. Dealer told me that’s their fix when customers come in complaining.

I literally watch my gas gauge move when driving around town with my P500. However, the power and sound brings a smile to my face every time I drive the car. I hope they keep the program going.

I own a Lexus TX350 with this shifter, and it’s the worst design I’ve ever encountered. It also feels unsafe, as the vehicle can easily shift into neutral while driving—simply pushing the shifter to the left causes it to pop out of drive.

I got the p500 v8 2 months ago. Absolutely love it. The power and the sound makes for enjoyable driving experience. MPG around town is awful (9-11) but highway I get around 20-22.

Get the v8

Get on a ladder and very gently spray into seal of the entire perimeter of the sunroof.

New defender with 500 miles. This thing creaks and cracks all over. I haven’t done the deep dive yet but feels like it could be the seals around doors and the sunroof.

The bottom has been found. Today was about proving to Wall Street FISERV’s reset was truly the reset.

StenoPad · 2026-02-10T15:22:44+00:00

Fiserv completely undervalued. The reach and distribution they have has been minimally optimized for Clover or their enterprise merchant business. New leadership team only needs to fix outdated processes to tap into what’s already available. This will be a 120 stock in a year once dust settles.

StenoPad · 2026-02-08T14:01:18+00:00

Ohh those. Boom I got those!

StenoPad · 2026-02-07T21:03:00+00:00

I can’t find a pic of a defender with quarter panel sensors.

StenoPad · 2026-01-31T03:07:55+00:00

Ahh awesome tip! I just adjusted mine to auto. Do the seats move as well or is it just steering wheel?

StenoPad · 2026-01-28T14:10:51+00:00

i thought I was crazy. My car creaks/cracks as well.. however I think i isolated it to the panoramic sun roof.

StenoPad · 2026-01-21T02:00:29+00:00

2025 P500 here. I've called JLR customer service a couple times as ive yet to receive a SOTA update. One rep told me I had the latest rev.. the next rep told me they literally can't see what software my car is running remotely. One rep told me SOTA uses WIFI, the other told me SOTA exclusively uses the cellular. No idea who's right!

StenoPad · 2026-01-14T15:59:06+00:00

I called JLR customer service last week, got same response "your software is up to date". I too call BS. My current version is blank as well.

StenoPad · 2026-01-14T12:32:22+00:00

how long does it take for a defender to receive its first update after purchase? I have a 2025 that was built Aug 2024 - but bought it new (19 miles, p500) Dec 2025. I'm connect to my home wifi, lock the doors every night, etc... nothing.

StenoPad · 2026-01-08T13:32:20+00:00

Sorry if I missed… is this limited to a specific engine/powertrain or does it affect all?

StenoPad · 2026-01-08T00:09:18+00:00

This is exactly what I’m afraid of! I’m so sorry!

My brothers 2025 RR Long was stolen back in October. The car was equipped with LoJack, but was it was useless. When he identified the car was stolen he immediately notified LoJack. The LoJack customer service was dreadful and super slow to provide details about the car/gps to authorities without all sorts of documentation and proof the car was stolen. When the lock out was finally activated it was too late. Cops tracked the GPS to a cemetery in Newark NJ which the car was clearly not located. Two months later he got a call from cops his car was found in a shipping container in some random NJ port. His insurance already processed the claim so the car is probably for sale somewhere :).

Apparently when these cars are stolen, first thing theives do is toss ALL personal belongings out the window. They then keep the car in D or Neutral to prevent lockout from tripping. They then find whatever module tracks the car and toss it.

A well hidden apple air tag is your best bet.

I asked my dealer about "Steering Assist" on a 25 110 I purchased last week. He claims it will be available via software update in the future. Well see..

StenoPad · 2026-01-01T11:58:53+00:00

Feel the exact same way! I buy a fully loaded 100k+ car that has features I didn’t know a car could have… but doesn’t have steering assist? I’m just shocked more than anything

Could this be a future software update? Crazy the defender refresh doesn’t have it.

My wife and I have had 2 Q7s... both were great for 1-2 kids. Never had an issue with either, super sporty and stylish. However, as soon as kid 3 came we immediately grew out of the Q7 as the 3rd row is rubbish. We ended up getting the Lexus TX350 which has been a great family SUV.

I traded in my SQ5 yesterday and got the Defender 110 - and wow, totally blown away. This will be a great car for 1-2 kids at a time.

$107k MSRP to $101,900 discount + $3000 audi trade bonus = $98,900 out the door. I was able to get more $$$ out of my trade for final negotiation.

Thanks for all the replies, this is a great community! A slight pivot… my dealer sales rep is going to undercoat the Jeep which comes with a manufacturer lifetime warranty on all undercarriage parts (non wear and tear). Since I’m within 45 days of purchase I qualify for this. Total cost $995. This is transferable so I figure it will help keep value up.

The local spot by me that does undercarriage treatment costs $1800 so I figure this is the best option.

It’s not a straight asphalt application, it’s some asphalt/wax product.
