    Coolant Temps

    It certainly acts like it is stuck partially open. Good call. Not sure why the temp sensor 2 isn't showing anything but ambient air temp or if that influences the thermostat operation at all.

    Coolant Temps

    Hi All, Looking for thoughts on a coolant temp issue. 2015 SCV6 with 109k miles is taking forever to warm up. Took 20 minutes for it to reach 200 this morning in 38F weather. I originally assumed the thermostat was stuck open, but when I hooked up the gap tool I noticed the temp sensor 2...

    Anyone running 20" Defender wheels?

    Thanks. Hard to pass up 5 new wheels for $500, but in NC I do more than fire roads. I do have my 01 D2, but I'll be taking the LR4 off road and on the beach, so I'll hold out for 18's if I can find them in black for a good price.

    Fuel Outlet Flange Recall and Other Services

    Wonder how the recall works with an indy. I'll call Performance Rovers on Monday and ask. I definitely trust them way more than the dealer. Haven't heard about brake and alignment center. They rover specific?

    Anyone running 20" Defender wheels?

    So I was going to pass on the 20" wheels, but the seller just said he would sell all 5 for $500. I do off road here in NC, but I don't think there is much difference between a 19 and a 20. What would you do?

    Anyone running 20" Defender wheels?

    Thanks. I noticed that when I did a comparison of the tires. The stock 20's (255/60) are an inch taller than my bigger 19s (255/60). I do have the gap tool so I can raise it if needed, but I'm not going to put them on with the tires they come with. I'm thinking 285/50/r20 if I get the...

    Anyone running 20" Defender wheels?

    I see a lot of folks running the 18" Defender steelies, but has anyone tried the 20" alloys? I have a Santori Black LR4 and want to change my silver 19" oem's to a 20" black. They have the same bolt patten (5x120) and the offsets of the Defender wheels are 42mm compared to 53mm on the LR4...

    Fuel Outlet Flange Recall and Other Services

    Unbelievable. The one dealer 2.5 hours away just quoted $1800-$2000. That is for replacing the fuel pump and senders during the recall. I'm just gonna stick with my local dealer and get the fuel pump and one sender done. I'll ask them again before they do the work about the front sender...

    Fair points. And I agree, I think it was sheer laziness on their part.

    Fuel Outlet Flange Recall and Other Services

    I'm certainly not defending the dealer, but I don't think they are trying to double change, I honestly think they just don't know. The fuel pump does not come with the sender (LR043385). The sender is LR042971. I am going to ask again about the other sender (LR042894) and why they can't get...

    Thanks. I'll check with the dealer again!

    I think there are 2 senders. They said they can replace the one that is in the tank, but the other will not be accessible during the recall.

    So they can do the one sender in the tank. They said they won't be able to get to the other sender during the recall. So $825 for a new fuel pump and one sender, and the filter is included in the recall. I think I'm ok with that considering what it would cost if I didn't have the recall.

    Yep. The only dealer within 2 hours.

    Now the original dealer is telling me the fuel filter is included in the recall. So they quoted me $570 for the fuel pump and are sending me the cost for the senders. Will need to pay for the extra labor, so about an hour at $215. Hopefully under a grand all said and done.
