    10 days new - water on the floor

    Update The dealership seems to have completely resolved the issue. The service tech could not have been more professional over the phone each time we spoke, and seemed to do thorough due diligence in order to determine the problem before addressing it. It seems that it was not from the roof...

    10 days new - water on the floor

    Thanks much for your post. My State has a more aggressive law than California's it sounds like. I certainly do not lack for legal representation. I really, really love this car. If they can fix it that would be fantastic... One thing I'm concerned about is getting the vehicle replaced if I...

    10 days new - water on the floor

    I posted about picking my new 2016 LR4 a couple weeks ago. This weekend I lifted the rubber 'protection package' floormat to dump out some sand and found a couple gallons of water soaked into the driver's side wheel well :frown:. I shop-vac'd it out, dried it as best I could, left the sunroof...

    side step/protection beam

    I would definitely say go for it. The factory ones on my '16 do not get in the way at all during the off-road driving I've done. I certainly don't plan to mess with rocks. Once this week at the farm I was trying to get back into the closed driver's door when the truck was slightly uphill and...

    Slamming Tailgate

    I asked my saleman about this; there is an update on the way. He said this was present on all of them except 2016s to his knowledge.

    LR4 sales are on a tear

    I got a pretty good deal on mine for sure, and I'm just another statistic. One factor motivating me was the imminent release of the LR5. I imagine the crossover-look is encouraging others to buy now as opposed to wait and see what comes next. I'm not concerned that my '16 LR4 will look dated...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    ^That's definitely a good product that fills a need. Love the look. If they sold the for $300 (and they could) we'd all have one.

    Stateside Disco 4 diesels?

    I was just wondering if anyone had ever seen a Discovery 4 with a diesel, mainly the three-liter turbo diesel, in the US? I guess I'm more curious if anyone's ever attempted a motor swap for the diesel on an LR4... I guess I just have a wandering mind. I know the electrical issues would be...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Here's the hitch; the seller still has one. Ships free. Seller has 100% feedback and hundreds of sales. Don't even need an eBay account. I ordered late, late last night and just got a tracking number...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    I ate lunch with a guy that works at the dealership today. He was surprised that mine didn't paddle shift in 'D'. He wasn't sure how to switch it; the manual clearly says it can be done. I talked to my salesman about the mirrors--he said they couldn't be set by me, but something maybe they...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    How can I change the vehicle to shift using the paddles while in 'D' as opposed to just in 'S'? It says in the manual to do it from the home menu thing, but I can't do it through there. Also, is there a way to keep the side mirrors from folding when locking and exiting the truck? Sometimes...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    They are not very good. I have not played with them much, but I would not order one with the Vision Assist if I had my druthers. I don't really know if anyone will even have that issue at this point, the time for ordering is probably over. The dog on the other hand is a phenomenal piece of...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Just got it home. In love--this truck was built for me. Pictures will come tomorrow. Thanks for all the advice, and I'm looking forward to being a member of this awesome community!

    Last date to custom order a 2016 LR4 thru dealership?

    The dealership I'm buying from couldn't get me a custom truck, but could divert incoming models to come to them. I think they are all HSE Silvers and Landmarks at this point.

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Thanks for the advice, I will keep this in mind. The salesman is a friend of mine so I'm sure I'll feel comfortable with the process, but you're right that I've been excited about this for a week now, so I'll make sure to stay focused.

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Ha, this is fantastic! I'm glad my 2016 has 19"s and I'm avoiding #1, sounds like the remainder of the LR4s will all have 'dubs'. Fortunately I probably will not need a hitch immediately (but will within 3 months), so I'll be on the lookout. I will post a wanted ad here, and obviously if...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Tomorrow if I can break away from work to get down there; failing that, Saturday! Fret not, there will be pictures :)

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Perez, Thanks so much for your reply--very helpful. I will look into the Rhino hitch but will probably go with the OEM one from the vendor you mentioned. Does your Rover feel any different with the cheaper gas, or do you see worse efficiency? I guess your V8 is likely better able to...

    Picking up new LR4--what should I know?

    Hey guys, I'm picking up a 2016 (not a 2016.5) LR4 HSE from a dealer an hour or so away where a friend of mine is a salesman. It has the Climate Comfort, Protection and Vision Assist packages. It does not have the HD package, which is the one thing I really wanted, but because of the...
