Supercharged?
Good point. I'll have to look into brake parts (if they're as easy as the LR3, I'll do them myself) and tire costs. I test drove a 2013 HSE and a 2012 autobiography and did not notice a difference in ride harshness. I'll have to pay attention to that.- Rogo

Supercharged?
Hi all, I'm looking at 2013 Range Rover Sports right now and I'm having trouble with which engine to focus on. Help me decide between the 375 hp 5L v8 or the 510 hp supercharged. I have an LR3, which I will still have, so either will be more power. As I was discussing this with my...- Rogo

Have you tried these tires?
I put 65K on my Yoko AT/S. Very quiet. I went with the 265/60/18 size (plus one basically). I would highly recommend them. I am due to replace them, and I would do the same tire without hesitation, but my Indie guy has an in with the Toyo distributor and he's convinced me to try the Toyo AT2... -
Transfer Case Leak
I haven't looked into all of the fluids you mention, but I know that the fluid is an ATF, NOT a gear oil. Our automatic, variable-locking center diff has different requirements than a standard transfer case. I am not sure I would use 85w140 or 75w90. By the way, mine leaks too :( -
The Notch
The Notch on Pole Hill trail overlooking Estes Park, Colorado. I saw a 6x6 and a Wrangler Rubicon at the top, and a brand new 4Runner with a nervous driver on his way up. Nice moderate trail with great views. I also did Pierson Park trail. Also a good trail that offers a good balance for a... -
Spark Plug Job
I just finished this up. It's quite simple. It took me under two hours. Remove the heat shield on the drivers side. On the pass side remove the air box/intake hose, flying saucer looking vent on top of the valve cover, and unclip the heater hoses so that you can move them around. I used two 3... -

Spark Plug Service
So I guess I'm confused. I have the technical manual... It indicates that the coil packs will pull out as CMG suggests. Then I am assuming the plugs just pull out of the coil packs? Or are they threaded in? Either way, it becomes a bench job to get them out, in which case extensions etc don't... -
Spark Plug Service
I am coming up on 90K miles (100 miles to go!), so its time to figure out the spark plugs. I believe the recommended service time is 90K. I will go with the stock plugs. Not sure where I'll get them yet, but I can do some searching on that. I have 3 questions on this: How difficult is... -

Another Battery Question
I got the interstate mtp93. It was 10 degrees F today when we started the vehicle and no issues. I may go get it tested to see if the numbers are at 100% but all looks good -
Another Battery Question
So far so good. A few 25 degree mornings and no error messages. It'll be 7 degrees F tomorrow. That'll be the real test. -
Another Battery Question
