low coolant in 2015 LUX
I had the exact same issue as billj. It was a bad water pump last year, followed by intermittent top-ups throughout the year that prompted me to return to the dealer where the o-ring was replaced. I'm not sure if it was replaced initially along with the new water pump. -

Showoff Your LR4
It's been too long since I took the LR4 off road. I took the LR4 to the top of Rice Peak north of Tucson this weekend for a nice sunset view. Only managed to take two photos before the nighttime descent. Link to the trail:http://azoffroading.com/arizona-trails/rice-peak/ -

2012 LUX or 2012 HSE HD
go with the LUX Of course you don't need the lux features but you will use them much more frequently than the HD. The seats are awesome. The xenons make a big difference at night. My wife and I use the memory seating eery time we swap cars (which is frequently). Mine has Lux and HD and yes, I... -

Heated Windshields
Mine seem to come on automatically whenever there's a little snowflake logo in the dash near the ambient temperature. I believe that is below 40 degrees. Others may have a more precise answer. -

Should I go for a 2016 LR4 with NO heavy duty option?
We leased our 2010 then bought it in 2014 for $24,000. Apparently we paid too much on that lease. The buy price was so low (about $10,000 under KBB) that we really had no choice but to buy it. Otherwise we would have been throwing away that $10,000. -

Wet Carpets and Headliner - Water Leak
My 2010 has to sleep outside, albeit in the Arizona desert. The water I noticed in the passenger footwell after a rainstorm the other day has me thinking I'll be posting to this thread soon with a similar story. Joyous Land Rovers! -

Rear ended yesterday
It's a real claim, even if your attorney takes some of the money. if your crashed and repaired 2013 LR4 was sitting next to a never-crashed 2013 LR4 at the dealership, how much less would the price have to be for you to buy it over the never-crashed version? The more expensive the car, the... -

Rear ended yesterday
Read this : https://rockafellowlawblog.wordpress.com/2015/10/02/diminished-value/ According to my one minute google research, Connecticut does in fact allow for this type of claim. It is only worth pursuing if you have never had reported damage to the LR4 before: Connecticut case law... -

If you live in a state that allows it make sure you make a diminished value claim. -

Battery life on Discovery 4
Not that dealers know everything here but… I asked mine about "coding" after a battery swap. He stated that they do plug in and reset something but that it isn't really necessary and he has never heard of any issues if you skip it. -

LR5 Release Updates?
I find it amusing that on Toyota's Land Cruiser home page they include a table comparing the LC to exactly one other vehicle - the LX570. The LC wins!- elrocko
