Is it ok to start towing with 100,000 miles on the engine?
There are impressive towing pics in this thread. Every single pic the truck is completely level. No sag at all even when overloaded well past the 550 lbs. tongue weight.- powershift

Testing air suspension for leaks?
My LR4 has been up to 110 MPH in a straight line and it was smooth as butter. Plenty of speed left on the table. In 4th gear punching a hole in the air at that speed the wind resistance gives the engine a good workout, like running a dog at the lake. If its going to have a heart attack it would...- powershift

Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order
With the older year G's pre 2010 you can toggle any of the 3 lockers in 2H. That is what I'd like but with the LR4 its actually better because the locking action is dynamic and you can be in 2H or 4L. I haven't needed a front locker yet, but I haven't been through winter with it. I'm going to...- powershift

LR4 oil cooler level of effort involved estimate? For 2013 V8
To get to it probably a few hours which includes getting out all the tools and getting setup. I had my intake off a few times now, but never got into the oil cooler.- powershift

P0328 Knock Sensor
Get a data logger and record the KR PID. That will show when its getting knock vs watching for the CEL. See if you can narrow it down.- powershift

The 2019+ has IFS. I've been getting about 10-11 mpg in my LR4 if I do the math, 15-17 MPG on the dash. Its way off. The G Class dash probably doesn't lie as much lol.- powershift

I hope to get 200k mi out of my LR4 and have about 106k now. I drove by a sweet G Class out in the desert today and had a lot of want for it with its 3 selectable lockers, body on frame, V8, etc. Those things are tanks but I'm not sure how well they would work out as an overlander even if I had...- powershift

Testing air suspension for leaks?
The workshop manual for the Vehicle Dynamic Suspension is a good read, thanks. It refers to a High Speed mode where the suspension is dropped when it detects 100 MPH. Does anyone know what year this feature was introduced? High Speed Mode In later software a high speed mode is introduced. High...- powershift

Testing air suspension for leaks?
Monday I woke out of my LR4 and my head hit the hatch glass when it was all the way open. I suspected the rear end dropped on both sides since I cleared the hatch the night before so that sent me on an investigation to find out if I have an air suspension leak. One thing different vs when I...- powershift

Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order
Used car ads need to have some unique description about them so ad listers can tell the viewer about it. That is a basic fundamental of a used car ad. Craigslist would be a lot better in that respect. They have been around a long time and anyone that is shopping for a used car seriously is going...- powershift

2013 Carplay Success!!
Interesting how they integrated it. I was on their site and it looked like there is an adapter to install with external composite connections and that is all. It sounds like the UI and screen hardware is factory stock except for there is a new trigger mapped for the audio phone button and from...- powershift

That tailgate is a beast, I would sorely miss it, the suspension and the cargo area, plush Windsor leather and the V8 power over the Bronco or Toyota.

The ZR2 has lockers in it, but its a truck. I walked past a new Bronco today with big 35" tires. It was a nice blue, but more offroad than I need. The solid axles compramise ride quality and its missing the sport factor. If I had the $65k I still would get the LR4 lol.- powershift

Dieseling engine noise
I've been driving with my windows down and and noticed there is a little dieseling going on sometimes when I accelerate on an incline at low speeds. I first heard it while offroading. It sounds like the valves are clacking against the pistons but I'm pretty sure its a timing issue. I was running...- powershift

New engine noise
I heard the noise after startup on a hot engine today. I popped the hood to try to isolate the noise, grabbed a fender cover so I wouldn't burn myself on the metal and the sound went away. It was hard to narrow down the source but I'll keep trying to find a pattern on when it starts to happen...- powershift

Perfect platform mattress
Is it on a platform? It looks like you are ready to go camping! The pic below is of a 10.16 cm air mattress. It fits on one side so I can fit my refrigerator on the other side, all my cooking gear, 5 gallons of water and then go out and find a good spot to chill away from camp. I like to...- powershift

His video does sound like chain slap, so maybe ours is slapping too. I tried moving my chain before and after the chain work and before I could push the chain and move it but not afterwards.

Cylinder 5 Misfire
Replacing the rings is major work and they would pull the engine out then take apart the very core of the engine, but I don't know that your issue is from a leak around the rings. Just theorizing. It's something to prove wrong or right.- powershift

There is a genuine rod knock video on /r/landrover that is pretty scary.
