    Pulling injectors for valve cover gasket, can I avoid it?

    Pull injectors. Drivers side rear most was the hardest/awkward. Make sure you do not pinch the gasket! Creates a vacuum leak if the gasket is not on right and throws codes. I got to do my passenger side twice! Did it in less than a hour the second time LOL.

    Camshaft Position Sensor Code P0390

    I'll see if there is enough slack in the harness and swap connectors. See if the problem follows.

    Camshaft Position Sensor Code P0390

    I checked connectors when I got back home (removed, inspect, reseat) cleared codes and it came right back. Everything appears seated and not loose. I guess Im just lucky :)

    Camshaft Position Sensor Code P0390

    I recently recently replaced my drivers side valve cover gasket myself. Test drove right after for about 15 min with no CEL. Stop off at a store and come back out and now there was a CEL. Code reader said P0390. Could not find anything on here for that specific code, but online I found: Camshaft...

    Do you know this Check Engine code: P2406?

    I did. The fix was to replace this part: https://www.roverparts.com/emissions-control/advanced-evaporate-loss/WTR500030/ Its wedged into a tiny space next to the charcoal canister which is above a metal plate that you cannot remove. Have to drop your spare tire and remove the heat shield to...

    Rotor wear advice

    I was in the automotive industry way back and I've never seen real bedding in done. Time is money. Do brakes, quick drive and feel the petal. If its nice and firm after a couple of stops, its good to go. Get back, do another quick visual and get to the next job. So my guess is most shops arent...

    Rotor wear advice

    Seems that these days, modern rotors arent built with extra material on them like they use to be. Couple of factors I think: 1. Weight savings (however minimal) 2. Manufacturers dont make money when you can turn your rotor three times vs having to replace them at every brake service. My .02 that...

    Bleeding cooling system

    Bleeder screw replacement

    -0. LOL. Sorry I was bitter when mine came apart because I knew it was plastic and was careful not to over torque...then it broke anyway.

    Bleeder screw replacement

    I thought about all of the ideas above, but with the way the o-ring sits you would need to make a custom piece. Needless to say, I have that brand new assembly minus the bleeder screw because they dont sell it seperately.

    Water pump replacement

    I've done it. If you are replacing the pump, replace the crossover pipes to. Used this video as a guide: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/diy-water-pump-and-crossover-pipe-video.30519/#post-189510 Watch out for the small 90 degree plastic pipe thats installed on the front of the pump...

    Low coolant. No leak?

    Mine was always fine temperature wise. I never saw any coolant anywhere. I knew the water pump replacement was coming just based off of reading posts here, so when the warning light came on, I looked it over for anything obvious, then I topped it off and started ordering parts while continuing...

    Low coolant. No leak?

    Mine did the same a while back. Nothing obvious that I could see; similar to cperez's symptoms. Topped it off with distilled water and went on my way. When I did my water pump recently, there was coolant on the bottom of the water pump so it was definitely leaking (82K miles). Just took a long...

    Another Defender hint?

    follow the front fender up along the door seam to the A pillar. You can see that the fender rounds up underneath the 'square' hood. The moulding right underneath the front drivers window is an add on to keep the boxy line going from front to rear. I'm betting a much more rounded shape thats all...

    DIY water pump and crossover pipe Video.

    Thanks for the video. I just did the water pump, crossover pipe replacement. For anyone doing it and not removing the fan, order of operations should be: drain coolant, remove top of fan shroud, lift the intake (front elevated), remove crossover pipe, then you have easy access to the water...

    2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle

    Dont do the forum thing very much anymore, but I've learned a lot about my LR4 from this forum, so pay it forward. Onto the OP's problem. I literally had this exact same issue earlier this year. Symptoms make it appear that its a spark/ignition issue. If you get a code reader, it would give you...

    Tha REAL answer!

    Well said. In other words, just because the oil comes out of the ground here doesnt mean it stays here. Oil Companies are global enterprises. Anything they pull out of the ground is distributed on a global scale, not just for the US. That said, Oil companies dont help the US citizen, they...

    Brake Pad Choices?

    just did the front brakes with new rotors and pads. bed them as instructed and letting them cool right now. I had to replace the pad sensor, but the check brake pads light is still on. Does something need to be reset after installing the new sensor? Thanks.
