    Rear Cargo Cover

    Hi all. My 2015 came without the rear cargo cover. I see I can pick up a new aftermarket for around $100. Does anyone know if the aftermarket ones fill in the gap when the back seats are down like the OEM does? Thanks, Jamie

    2014 LR4 SCV6 Low Revs at idle

    Check out my thread on the same issue. I have a new to me 2015 with the same issue. Exactly the same. I replaced battery, MAF sensors, oil change, cleaned throttle body, smoke tested for vacuum leaks, checked fuel trims, replaced spark plugs, ran BG through the fuel system, and...

    Closing this thread. I took the car to a reputable indy land rover shop and was told this is normal. There is nothing wrong. Revs can drop, car can shake, nothing to worry about. I'll continue to keep an eye on it, but going to move on from it. Thanks for all the input.

    Batteries

    So I have updates and answers and clarifications. I called East Penn customer service and they looked up the NAPA part number of the H8 AGM The Legend battery. It is made by Clarios and not East Penn. I asked Customer Service who sold their batteries and she said it depends on the battery...

    Well damn. Picked up a NAPA AGM H8 today and while charging I noticed a "Made in China" sticker. Guy told me it was a East Penn battery. Thought they were all made in the USA?

    Batteries

    That interstate at costco is $169 now, and it has the same specs as the others. Its $120 cheaper than the equivelent Interatate MTX. How can that be the same battery? Crazy. I actually sent a note to Clarios to ask them about quality/build differences between battery brands. I wonder if...

    Batteries

    So I'm looking to replace my 4 year old H7 with a H8 and thought I would share some info I found. I created a spreadsheet of details for the most popular brands of batteries and who makes them. For the H8 AGM, Duralast, Diehard, Interstate MTX, and EverStart are all the same battery...

    Let me give it a try. I have gap iid on my phone, so will need to grab the wife's phone to record. I do have a screenshot of when put a load on at idle.

    A little more info. The idle has been a little better, but still sometimes drops to 600ish and then comes right back to 620ish. Today I opened the window and turned the air con off and it idled perfectly. So I tested the idle by adding load to the battery/alternator. Whenever I add a load...

    Thanks. I'll see if I can get a video. When I come to a stop, it starts to idle about 680 or so, then after 15 seconds it drops to 620ish. When it drops, it idles a little rougher, and sometimes dips to 600 them comes right back to 620. If the car is warm and I shut it off, when I...

    I reset the adaptations primarily because I replaced the MAF's. Will report back after a while.

    So still troubleshooting. I replaced both MAF sensors and still have the low idle. I also found that if I shut down the truck and restart it, it starts with a low idle. If it's running and I come to a stop, it takes 10-15 seconds before the idle drops. Thinking about resetting...

    Thanks. Actually it has to be thin. NAPA carries them. Called "European Clamp".

    So battery is at 12.5v resting. I propped open the butterfly and did the smoke test, but I think my resonator is shot. The clamp was stripped from over tightening and I think it's deformed because smoke was pouring out of the throttle body. I had it sealed with a piece of innertube, but...

    Man, you are awesome. Thank you. Great point on the butterfly, never thought of that! The battery is 4 years old, I do know that. I'll check voltages at the battery. I checked it myself and had autozone check for the hell of it, and it came back good both times. But I hear you need a...

    I removed the air filters and maf, plugged up one side of the resonator and inserted the bladder in the other side. This is how I found a leak where the resonator connects to the throttle body (fixed). I let the test run for a while and had good pressure and did not see any leaks.

    Thanks. I did this this morning after driving to work. Bank 1 @ 619 RPM = 12.54% Bank 2 @ 619 RPM = 9.37% Bank 1 @ 1703 RPM = 5.47% Bank 2 @ 1703 RPM = 3.12% Bank 1 @ 2405 RPM = 8.64% Bank 2 @ 2405 RPM = 7.81% Looks like Bank 1 is higher, but not considerably. I did do a smoke test...

    Thanks. That was my question about low pressure. At idle, the average actual fuel pressure is 3% lower than desired. Is a 3% difference indicative of low fuel pressure or is it within acceptable range?

    So I think I found the issue. The air duct is leaking where it clamps to the throttle body. New clamp, but still has a small leak. I cut a piece of innertube and put that under the clamp and that helped a lot. So a very small leak though. Short of replacing the air duct, any ideas?

    Still chasing this issue. I did a smoke test and found some small leaks in the intake. The clamp on the throttle body was stripped. I replaced it (NAPA sells then as European Clamps) and that didn't fix the issue. Had the battery checked and is good. I checked the fuel rail pressures...

    So update. I over fixed it. Charged the battery off the car, waited an hour, and hooked it back up. Using gap, I reset the bcm. Being the idiot that I am, I also reset the secondary battery. So now the freaking stop start is working again. I did take off my seatbelt so I could test...

    Interesting you bring this up. I just read that you should never charge the battery with the posts as it will bypass the bcm. Also I don't know who put this battery in. So I unhooked the battery and am charging it now. When charged I will let it sit for 1 hour. Then I will hook it up...

    You may be right. Either battery or alternator is what I'm hoping. I do notice that the volts on the display by the speedo have always shown under 12v. Right now it says 11.4v. Check the battery with a meter and it's 12.2v. Engine off.

    Yes, I am still getting the low idle and shudder. Goes away when I turn off the hvac and electronics. I noticed it was electrical when I was at a stoplight and turned on the seat heater and the rpms dropped. I'm thinking battery too. The one in there now is a Diehard AGM. No idea how old...
