    Fluids change after 9 years?

    Hello Everyone, I have a 2015 SCV6 LR4 with 13,400 miles on the ODO. I'm thinking about replacing the ATF, transfer case and brake fluids because they're about to get 10 years old and not because of mileage. Do you guys think this is advisable? And if so, should the ZF transmission adaptation...

    I think I have officially replaced every hose ever made for my LR4. Exhausting search for my latest leak.

    The supercharger does add some complexity to the cooling system, far from bulletproof, I don’t understand how JLR just let this pass,

    The worst here is that you don’t usually get a heads up on your insufficient coolant. In my case, the expansion tank had some coolant visible in it, the engine temp reading on the dash was normal, however, it was missing about a gallon and a half and I would have never noticed, but thanks to...

    Yeah, these engines have very complex coolant circuits. All possible leaking spots that come to mind: -Front and rear crossover pipes (sure you replaced those already) -Water pump housing to engine block (bolts get corroded very easily here, need to tap the holes again when replacing these...

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    I guess I´m within specs here, I took off the roof rack and made a small trip, about 168 miles, 70% highway-30% city, login in info into the fuelly app I got 15.57 mpg, tech specs say 16 mpg combined. So I guess we´re good. Real gas hogs these babies but the ride is smooth as none other. Put the...

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    Update: Hello everyone, So I just did a Throttle Control Module Adaptation Reset through the iCAR Soft tool, took a ride and MPG got a bit better from 12.5 to 14.5 mpg as per the on board computer. It looks like it might be a good idea to do the adaptation reset if you change an O2 sensor or...

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    I'll go ahead and do a small highway trip, about 40 miles, I'll fill the tank up with premium gas, reset the odometer then refill again and see how it does. I'm running on 255/55/R20 Pirelli Scorpion All Season, OEM was 255/50/R20, I wanted a bit more of profile on the tires for *** holes and...

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    Hello Everyone, So, last year I got my hands on a 2015 LR4 SCV6 with 10k miles (yes, you read that right ten thousand miles). It actually even has the new car smell. After driving it for a while I realized it was giving about 9 mpg. So the journey began: By reading the engine coolant temp 1...
