Shifter Knob Won't Budge
There’s a solenoid in the shifter assembly that has probably failed or gotten stuck. I flipped a highlander that once repairs were done, the solenoid was stuck due a long past drink spill or something. the short of it is you should hear the solenoid click under the knob when you press the brake. -

FS: IID BT, LR4 oem all weather floor mats, weathertec cargo mat, cargo cover and sun shades
Pics of the wheels, there is a bit of history on them, some had some curb rash/rock rash that was smoothed down but not repaired on the lip of a few wheels. One is fine, one has one ding in the lip, one has some minor rash, the fourth has moderate rash, and one had pretty bad gouges in it. The... -

'13 LR4 Pending Purchase
Like others have said the 13s got the updated timing chain guides/tensioner but you still have to be careful and change the oil between 5-7.5k miles to slow the wear. Also at that age if they haven’t been done you want to preventatively replace all the plastic coolant pipes. If they let go... -

LR4 Calipers
if warranty will pay for them i'd get them done. If i were doing the work myself i'd unstick them, grease the pins and replace the rubber boots and hardware. If the pins are really bad, i'd replace them with new and grease them along with the new boots, etc. i realize nowadays a lot of... -

Yay! I get to replace the rear diff pinion seal
pinion seal leaks tend to throw a fine mist of fluid everywhere, which will lead you to think its a big leak when they usually aren't. If it isn't leaking badly enough to drip off of things onto the ground, you're likely in the clear as far as fluid level. I'm not sure if the gear mesh is set... -

Winch recommendations for ARB deluxe bumper
where are you having trouble? You may need to clock either the motor or clutch or both to make it fit how you want in the bumper. From the factory they usually come set up for a “feet down” install so need some adjustment for a “feet forward” install. -

Well crap!
but the v6 has offset crank pins so the firing events still happen every 120 degrees Like they would in a 60 degree v6 but it’s still not naturally balanced -

Well crap!
All v6 are inherently less smooth than an inline 6 cylinder would be, or a v8 due to the optimal V angle being 120 degrees, whereas most v6 are 60 degrees due to packaging reasons. that said, i feel like the scv6 is pretty smooth and quiet aside from the typical sound of the direct injection... -

SCV6 - Muffler or Resonator Removal
as far as I know, nobody makes an exhaust for the LR4 scv6, but there are a few companies that have options for the RR sport and RR velar, plus also some exhaust options on the jaguar f-type which uses the same engine. -

Black Rhino Arsenol 18” Wheels
I'm still running the bridgestone highway tires on 20" wheels that came with the truck, and they have been surprisingly capable off road, and even still riding nice on the air suspension without airing down so as to not risk the already small sidewall. I have a set of lr3 18s ready to go once I... -

Exhaust opinion?
that isn't a great setup as it doesn't bridge the two cylinder banks so you'll lose scavenging and low end torque like that. It also makes it sound more blatty and less smooth that way. It needs an X-pipe or H-pipe probably just before the mufflers. -

Mityvac...
on my old Xterra, i had a fumoto drain valve. I bet if you got creative, you could rig up the mityvac to connect to the drain valve, open the valve, and suck the oil out. If you can get the filter out without pulling the skid you'd be set. Maybe a remote filter mount? http://fumotousa.com/
