About the Land Rover Defender 90

The Land Rover Defender 90 is the short-wheelbase version of the modern Defender range, reintroduced to Australia in 2020. With two doors and a compact design, it offers serious off-road capability in a more agile, city-friendly format. Built on the same platform as the larger Defender 110 and 130, the 90 still features Land Rover’s renowned Terrain Response system, permanent all-wheel drive, and a choice of powerful engines including turbo petrol, diesel, and mild-hybrid options. While the original Defender was known for its rugged simplicity, the updated Defender 90 adds a premium interior, modern safety tech, and impressive comfort, making it a capable all-rounder for both adventure and daily use.

Common Land Rover Defender 90 problems

Owners frequently report software bugs and screen freezing in the Pivi Pro infotainment system. The digital gauge cluster may also lag or fail to display correctly. These issues are often fixed with dealer-installed or over-the-air software updates.
On models fitted with air suspension, the Defender 90 may trigger suspension fault alerts even when ride quality remains unaffected. These alerts are often caused by faulty height sensors or calibration errors, particularly after off-road use or water crossings.
Some Defender 90s have been known to let in water during heavy rain or pressure washes. The leaks typically occur around the door seals or rear tailgate and are usually resolved with improved weather stripping or seal adjustments.
A small number of owners have experienced hesitation or clunky gear shifts at low speeds or in traffic. In many cases, this can be corrected with a software update or transmission adaptation reset.
There are reports of the 12-volt battery draining unexpectedly, especially if the vehicle is parked for extended periods. This issue is sometimes caused by background systems not powering down properly and may require a software fix or battery management update.
Features like lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control can occasionally display false warnings or deactivate. These problems usually occur due to sensor misalignment or dirt after off-roading and can often be resolved with sensor recalibration.
Some owners notice rattles or squeaks from interior trim panels or the cargo area, especially when driving over uneven roads. This is most common in vehicles with jump seats or rugged load space options and can typically be resolved with insulation or panel adjustments.
