Hardware key issue
I cannot find it right now, but I have seen a series of videos by PowerfulUKLTD addressing this exact issue. Sorry I can't be any more helpful... -
LR4 Window problems
I tried the reset. MAGIC ! Works perfectly now! Thanks! -
LR4 Window problems
On a semi-related note. I purchased this vehicle used a couple years ago and just noticed this. On the drivers window. When the window is down and you pull up on the switch there is a detent/click that is supposed to completely close the window. It clicks but when the switch is released the... -
2010 LR4 Air suspension need advice
Can't answer all that, but... On my 2016, and I have heard this from others as well.... This appears to be a factory build error... The software in the vehicle is for the Hitachi pump, but the actual installed hardware was the AMK pump. Suggest that whatever your path, you make sure that the... -

ZF6 to ZF8 upgrade!
Glad to know that this is possible, but, at least for my hardware, the ZF6 is much smoother, and I don't care about 2mpg. So please explain to me why one would change from 6 to 8 ? Not being contrary - just wanting to understand.... -
Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4
I find that the folks at Land Rover Palm Beach on-line parts are wizards in locating part numbers. Palm Beach Rover is also a reliable vendor - more expensive than some - but parts are properly packaged and have always arrived in good condition. That particular "not compatible" message comes... -
Replacing Lower Control Arms 2016 LR4 HD
LCA, the last time I did them, were something like $200-$300 each. Use Rover branded. If you are really into pressing bushings and want to alter the ride, that is also an option that some have taken. I find this particular job a PITA because I keep bonking myself on the head when installing... -
2015 LR4 Coolant Issue - Nothingburger or...
Inexpensive and quick. Get a UV flashlight, $10. After dark look all around, especially on the front of the engine. Also, at about 2:00 at the oil filter, look straight down, 6" or so, until you see a little triangular space down there. If you are running Rover coolant, anything orange/yellow is... -
Hello!
Brakes are easy. I went with aftermarket vented brakes on the 2016, much cleaner, i.e. less brake dust, than factory and they work just fine.- txfromwi

Hello!
Welcome to the group! There are several threads here that offer excellent insight into things to inspect prior to a purchase - although at $1,500, it's pretty much a well, why the heck not kind of decision..... I think it depends on how much hands on work you will be doing yourself vs having...- txfromwi

Newbie to the Forum
Welcome!!! Yes, very possible it's the gaskets in the oil cooler pipe along with a poor design - that was my issue on the 2013. Be aware that a new water pump will require a new pipe and new gaskets in there as the design has changed - you will need to change that entire area to the new design...- txfromwi

Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4
The SC aftermarket couplers from SCOL are excellent quality and fit very tightly. A solid block does not necessarily distribute applied forces as well as a designed part. The entire SC oil change and coupler replacement is a section in this video - all part numbers are in the video. See the... -
Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4
It's my understanding that the timing chain issues were in the V8 (and were resolved before the V8 ended production in the 2013 model year) and are not appearing in the V6. The OP has a 2016 which is a V6. Not saying it could not be a timing chain issue - if the oil changes were not sufficient... -
Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4
Agreed about the SC coupler. I changed mine at about 45K miles - already signs of wear on the shaft from coupler failure - not of concern at that time - glad I caught it. -
Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4
I have the same type of sounds on my 2 V6's. I am not concerned with mine - but they are not as pronounced as yours. But I would not not be concerned about yours either - but I am no expert.... Sounds like fuel injectors. Just a note of advice on replacing fuel injectors - I replaced mine on... -
Coolant leak & collapsed top hose when cold?
Agreed, if the reservoir really got low enough to suck in air, simply adding coolant will never burp the bubble - re-evacuate and refill as appropriate. Hopefully your added dye is OK - personally I don't care what any additives CLAIM - I use them only when desperate, only those that claim... -
Coolant leak & collapsed top hose when cold?
Leaks can be challenging to find - even with UV. When you change out coolant next time use Rover coolant - it already contains UV dye and then you don't have the possibilities of added UV dye being incompatible with the coolant - (I only use those "universal" dye's if I am desperate.) What's... -
Coolant leak & collapsed top hose when cold?
You opened the reservoir and the hose remained collapsed?? Your work was done 45K ago? If the work was recent, this sounds like air bubbles from an improper evacuation and refill, but that's a long time for air bubbles to make their way out... I would not be concerned about a bit of extra... -
2015 LR4 Windshield Wipers
I have not yet had a rear wiper spring tension issue. Lucky me. As far as misc hardware like springs, I am sure Rover will sell you one (Palm Beach Rover on line parts is amazing at misc part numbers), but there is also the website BoltDepot - an amazing resource for all kinds of bits and bobs. -
Auxiliary Battery
We all have such different experiences with what in theory should be the same vehicle. That's why I always say "in my experience", and they are all unique individual vehicles - each and every one assembled with whatever was laying about on the shop floor that particular day ! -
Auxiliary Battery
I have seen many posts on the functions of the ECO Battery - but at least from my experience it seems to have no additional function other than the Start/Stop. Everything will function just fine with a dead ECO battery. I presume that everything will also be fine if you remove the battery - but... -
2015 LR4 Windshield Wipers
I still like the Bosch in front. I have vehicles in Houston, TX and Upstate NY/Montreal QC. No issues with the wipers in the cold or heat. Make sure you purchase A/B and place them on the correct sides. Note that the Bosch do not fit on the rear because of the design of the clips. I use...
