    That's all Folks! 15 years of Rover ownership has come to end.

    Nice. Marty is just up the road and a local legend. Have met Guy but have heard he was an absolute beast in his day. Best "local" guy currently is Trystan Hart who took silver at Erzberg so no slouch.:)

    Yes you do. A lot of British Columbia looks like this and is 40% larger than Texas is landmass. Considering the population is essentially shoved down by the ocean there is maybe 1 million souls occupying the other 90%.of the Province.

    150k miles, time for differential and transfer case fluids

    I used Royal purple for diffs (non hd) and the synchromax in the transfer with no ill effects. I would have supported our local deal but $80CDN for 1L of transfer case fluid is beyond stupid. Remember manufacturers tender oil/fluids out to suppliers and go with the CHEAPEST that meets their...

    Tensioners - (for the timing chain) - what's the deal?

    i think he pulled the pins before install? Or pulled the pins before the chain/tensioner was proper.

    You bet: BTW. You are the reason to sign up to this forum. For the rest of you treat Rover Range very nice, he is the oracle of all things LR4. Take care.

    Sorry for no response I have been away 1) mileage 150k miles (220k kms) 2) Didn't really replace the LR4 with anything directly although the wife picked up a Mercedes Benz GLC300. 3) I currently drive a 2011 Ridgeline that refuse to break or wear out. Our family basically shares vehicles and...

    As of today I am Rover free. Started with a LR3 HSE and moved into a 2010 LR4 LUX. The LR$ was a wonderful vehicle with tons of family memories. All in all it was quite trouble free. I got through ownership without ever needing a fancy code reader. Original air system and the chain/guides were...

    Wheel Tire Question

    I would pass, the third tire is different than the rest. Tires have no value. I much prefer 19" wheels in a stock 255/55-19 for a winter tire. For our US friends $1300 Cdn = $915 US.

    Throttle body coolant line mystery

    Perhaps I am lucky, patient or both but I have been able to conventionally bleed my V8 system with no issues other than just following the manual. I got no room for additional once in a while tools..

    LR4 brake issues

    People go around and around looking at pads that won't dust as much but still provide good brake feel and ignore the composition of the rotors. Rovers come with high carbon steel rotors. These are soft and provide good feel, reduced noise and of course help to turn your wheels black in short...

    LR4 brake issues

    Have battled runout on these before, they can be temperamental. What 99% of people don't do is measure the disc runout once the rotor is installed to check that it is within limits. This ensures the rotor is mated to the hub nice and flat. Pay attention to the hubs and mating surfaces when...
