On collecting the SL55 after having the Ding removed in the rear quarter, caused when I reversed the Defender into it, the above message appeared.
As I was still at the dealership, I immediately reversed the car into the workshop (carefully) and a technician kindly had a quick look at it. According to the tech the diagnostics were reading "passenger side seatbelt fault". Possibly in seatbelt buckle. So he reset the codes, and the fault message immediately re-appeared. So I have booked the car in for it to be looked at.
So am I in for a Big Bill ? Is there an ECU somewhere that has been fried by the body shop ? Or is it just a new buckle needed ? I have had a look under the seat, and all the connections appear to be OK.
The timing is weird, as it has never done this before.
Thanks for any ideas/thoughts.
