Cylinder 5 Misfire
Gotcha yeah I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that. At this point though, with the tests I’ve done, what else could it be? -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
There was a bunch of grime at the top of the cylinder which may look like pitting in my terrible video. I'll go in for another look. I doubt that's coolant, I believe it's leftover oil from the wet compression test- I'm positive I squirted too much in there, and I got a lot of smoke out the... -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
I have a service record that describes an incident where the original owner pulled into the LR parking lot saying the low coolant light was on, and that when they opened the hood the reservoir was empty. Front crossover had sprung a leak, and was replaced. I have no idea how long it was driven... -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
Welp, I just did a leakdown test! I can hear air hissing in oil filler cap. Nothing from exhaust, and no bubbles in coolant reservoir. To listen for intake valve, would that be thru the throttle body or somewhere else? Was hearing hissing generally from the pass side of the engine (not from the... -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
This makes sense to me regarding the inconsistency. Are you saying add some seafoam through the spark plug hole? Which Seafoam product in particular would you recommend using? They have a few. Thanks very much for your reply -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
Yeah I believe he did the correct bank. It’s a very popular Land Rover indie. Also when he replaced the ignition coil afterwards it was the correct one on passenger side. -

Cylinder 5 Misfire
Hey all, hoping I can lean on the collective wisdom here to help me figure out a misfire on my 2013 LR4. 147k miles. Apologies in advance for the novel of a post, just wanna get all the evidence in one place :) Here's the history up till today.. Last December, got a P0305 and P0316 code... -

LR4 - Coolant Under Pressure When Cold
Which relays/fuses do you pull on the 5L v8 to do compression test? I need to test just cylinder 5 since I have an ongoing misfire on that cylinder that I'm trying to diagnose. -

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
Hey Phil, I'm having similar symptoms on my LR4. What was the outcome of your issue? -

Radiator Replacement
How was it refilling the coolant system? I have to replace my radiator too and don’t want to F up the vacuum fill. Any tips? -

Timing chain…
Might be above my pay grade to further diagnose as you suggest. Are cam actuator degrees and timing PIDs something I can see with the gap tool? The maintenance you had on yours, was it throwing misfire codes too? Are you saying here the misfires and possible chain slack are related? What part... -

Timing chain…
145k miles, 2013 LR4 5.0 with original timing chain. Can anyone provide opinions on this sound from cold start, and how much slack is on the chain through the oil cap? I'd estimate I could push the chain down like a half inch or so, pressing decently ******* it. The past month or so, it's been... -

Is this a failing crossover pipe?
Radiator was done at Land Rover dealer, as was all the other stuff. I agree it’s weird for it be leaking already. -

Engine Misfire
First troubleshooting step I did was swap the plug and coil between cylinder 5 and 1, and the misfire did not follow. -

Engine Misfire
I recently started getting exact same 305/316 combo after filling up. 2013 LR4 with 145k miles. Interestingly, it started immediately after sorting out an evap system leak where a connector above the gas tank wasn’t fully seated. I was getting consistent p0456 faults before. Now that those...
