    Rear Cargo Cover

    Hi all. My 2015 came without the rear cargo cover. I see I can pick up a new aftermarket for around $100. Does anyone know if the aftermarket ones fill in the gap when the back seats are down like the OEM does? Thanks, Jamie

    2014 LR4 SCV6 Low Revs at idle

    Check out my thread on the same issue. I have a new to me 2015 with the same issue. Exactly the same. I replaced battery, MAF sensors, oil change, cleaned throttle body, smoke tested for vacuum leaks, checked fuel trims, replaced spark plugs, ran BG through the fuel system, and...

    Closing this thread. I took the car to a reputable indy land rover shop and was told this is normal. There is nothing wrong. Revs can drop, car can shake, nothing to worry about. I'll continue to keep an eye on it, but going to move on from it. Thanks for all the input.

    Batteries

    So I have updates and answers and clarifications. I called East Penn customer service and they looked up the NAPA part number of the H8 AGM The Legend battery. It is made by Clarios and not East Penn. I asked Customer Service who sold their batteries and she said it depends on the battery...

    Well damn. Picked up a NAPA AGM H8 today and while charging I noticed a "Made in China" sticker. Guy told me it was a East Penn battery. Thought they were all made in the USA?

    Batteries

    That interstate at costco is $169 now, and it has the same specs as the others. Its $120 cheaper than the equivelent Interatate MTX. How can that be the same battery? Crazy. I actually sent a note to Clarios to ask them about quality/build differences between battery brands. I wonder if...

    Batteries

    So I'm looking to replace my 4 year old H7 with a H8 and thought I would share some info I found. I created a spreadsheet of details for the most popular brands of batteries and who makes them. For the H8 AGM, Duralast, Diehard, Interstate MTX, and EverStart are all the same battery...

    Let me give it a try. I have gap iid on my phone, so will need to grab the wife's phone to record. I do have a screenshot of when put a load on at idle.

    A little more info. The idle has been a little better, but still sometimes drops to 600ish and then comes right back to 620ish. Today I opened the window and turned the air con off and it idled perfectly. So I tested the idle by adding load to the battery/alternator. Whenever I add a load...

    Thanks. I'll see if I can get a video. When I come to a stop, it starts to idle about 680 or so, then after 15 seconds it drops to 620ish. When it drops, it idles a little rougher, and sometimes dips to 600 them comes right back to 620. If the car is warm and I shut it off, when I...

    I reset the adaptations primarily because I replaced the MAF's. Will report back after a while.

    So still troubleshooting. I replaced both MAF sensors and still have the low idle. I also found that if I shut down the truck and restart it, it starts with a low idle. If it's running and I come to a stop, it takes 10-15 seconds before the idle drops. Thinking about resetting...

    Thanks. Actually it has to be thin. NAPA carries them. Called "European Clamp".

    Idle Help

    So battery is at 12.5v resting. I propped open the butterfly and did the smoke test, but I think my resonator is shot. The clamp was stripped from over tightening and I think it's deformed because smoke was pouring out of the throttle body. I had it sealed with a piece of innertube, but...

    Man, you are awesome. Thank you. Great point on the butterfly, never thought of that! The battery is 4 years old, I do know that. I'll check voltages at the battery. I checked it myself and had autozone check for the hell of it, and it came back good both times. But I hear you need a...
