    Check brake pads error

    06 LR3 108k miles. The check brake pad warning started randomly popping on about a week ago. Some days I drive it and doesn't come on, other times it'll beep/display literally 30 times during a 15 minute ride, going away after each beep. Sometimes it is only the display that says 'check brake...

    Series/defender wanted for import

    Landroverphotoalbum recently posted a picture of a beautiful Series (I believe) 2-door with the caption that similarly clean vehicles like that can be found for 5,000 GBP. I'm defender/series obsessed - does anyone have a reliable online resource they can point me to? I'd like to import one to...

    Resolution: Leaky 06 LR3

    Following up to an earlier post I made. 06 LR3, 98k miles My girl began marking her territory underneath the front part of the truck behind the rear of the engine bay, fluid was pooling in the center of the front cross-member and dripping onto the floor. During an oil change it looked like...

    1993 RR LWB County Value

    Gents - Does anyone have a sense for a private sale value of this make/model/year RR? If not can you point me to an online resource other than KBB/Edmunds? Mileage is 117k. Interior / exterior look to be exceptional. Air suspension has been replaced with coils/shocks and claims to be a CA car...

    A/C - Cold on the left, hot on the right

    Gents - First I'll mention recently my car started 'farting' a lot more lately than it normally has from the area behind the glove boxes, as described in numerous threads . I can probably get in there to lubricate the offending bits. So I'm not sure if the farting would have anything to do...

    Another Reduced Engine Performance Thread

    '06 LR3, 88k miles, new battery 18 months ago Gents - I've been getting this error lately, and it's coming up more frequently in the last couple of weeks. It happened a few times this winter when it was sub 30 degrees outside. The times it happened, I noticed it was almost exactly 15 minutes...

    Compressor question - very noisy after dealer repair visit

    I had my 06 LR3 at a dealer this week to replace the rear sway bushings and a broken brake sensor. They told me the compressor was loose so I had them tighten it up. Before the service, I could tell when the compressor was lifting or topping off the suspension, but it was nothing much more...

    Advice needed: 06 LR3, 80k miles - extended warranty?

    My LR3 has 80k miles and there are some items I think I'll have to address soon, and wonder if it's better to get an extended warranty to cover me for the unknowns. Right now, I think I'm going to have to address a 'whisper' that's starting in the exhaust, somewhere towards the middle of the...

    Check brake pad error

    I have been getting this error on my dash - mostly when I make a hard left or right. The pads are fine as I've had the wheels off a couple of times and there's plenty left, so I think it's a loose connection. It started infrequently at first, mostly when going over washboard access roads and...

    Post body-shop issues

    I had some minor dings popped out and my car was returned to me in a less than perfect condition. The body work itself was well done. Unfortunately, the driver and passenger side power seats aren't working, and neither are the controls for the rear view mirrors. I am also getting the...

    WTB - 06 LR3 Lug Nuts

    Maybe the admin can move this for me, I wasn't allowed to post in the wanted section. Some of the chrome caps on my lug nuts are failing so I am either looking for about 10 chrome capped lug nuts or a full set of the non-bling lug nuts without the caps. Please PM me if you want to sell yours.

    Control arm bushings and ball joints

    Can you help clear up conflicting information I have on these items? I've had a tech tell me and have read here that the whole control arm assembly needs to be replaced instead of the degrading ball joints and bushings in the front lower control arms. Atlantic British sells the individual parts...

    Front axle grinding noise

    Gents - I have recently been experiencing an intermittent grinding noise coming from the front axle. It sounds metallic and almost like really squeaky brakes and also like something is loose and metal is coming into contact with metal. It was prominent for a short ride yesterday, but today while...

    1,000 mile review / Nitto Terra Grappler

    I finally pulled the trigger on a new set of tires and decided on the terra grapplers, 255/60/18. Overall they are excellent and I'm very happy with the purchase. We've been hit with two fairly decent snow storms so I had a chance for some first hand experience in ice, snow, slush, water and dry...

    Park brake & fuel cap errors

    I've read other threads about the woes of the parking brake error and the various issues or non-issues causing it. This morning I parked without applying the parking brake, and the fuel cap loose or missing error came up on my info display. This came up a few weeks ago and went away within a...

    Online resource - exploded diagram?

    Can anyone point me to an online resource where I can see part names/identifiers on the LR3 in an exploded diagram type of format? I'm trying to identify the name of the 'plastic thing under the front bumper' that is broken which I want to replace! I also haven't been able to identify it on...

    Gas grade - 87, 89, higher?

    The dealer I bought my rover from recommended 89 or above for the gas quality. I've filled it a couple of times with 87, and a couple of times with 89. I don't notice any difference in performance whatsoever when I use a higher grade and don't hear any knocking or pinging. What grade do you...

    Tire pressure monitoring & new tire install

    I'm in the process of researching new tires for my 06 LR3. I'm wondering if the tire pressure monitoring devices need to be replaced when new tires are installed. FYI when checking the tire pressure, I noticed corrosion (white, not rust colored) on the threads of the tire valve stems, so I'm...

    New member - LR3/New England

    Greetings all - While I haven't gotten my 'new' LR yet, I'm expecting to pick her up some time this week. I have bought an 06/Buckingham Blue model with low miles - trading up from a Jeep Wrangler (Matilda) and can't wait to experience the legendary, or is it infamous, British...
