2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
OK, on that supercharger. It's on the bench. This is not what I was expecting, but is this little dinky plug the drain plug?? Please advise.. If it is I can tell you that that is a 3mm allen wrench. -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
FINALLY. The electrical connector is off, but it is NOT pressing on two sides at the same time. Press on the "outside/bottom" end at the two parallel bits. This should lever up the end on the "inside" end of the connector, but that was not working. So take a paint can opener and pry up on the... -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
Awesome, THANKS to you both!!! Great photo, thanks for the extra work!! I did not think to press on BOTH sides of that connector. Hopefully it works! My opinion is that they design these things on purpose to make sure that only dealerships ever work on these vehicles. From memory, this is... -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
Ordered the coupler and red RTV last night. It's going slowly, but surely. SO... Electrical connector on the back(firewall) drivers side of the air intake/supercharger. How the ^&*^& does this come apart?? And as much as I love you all, if anyone says just squeeze and pull, I will hunt you... -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
SC Questions.. (I posted a question to superchargersonline about 3 weeks ago - no response yet.) Sounds like standard RTV, used cautiously is the gasket material - any other strong opinions? Any info on the torque specification of the snout bolts and a torque order? -
Current Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations?
Rotors could go a while yet, certainly another set of pads. Rover recommends changing rotors every other set of pads (overkill - yes), but since this one lives so far away, it's good piece of mind just doing the replacement... I have never used ceramic pads, do they tend to squeek? (I don't... -
Current Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations?
So, the 2016 (which we purchased used 10K ago) has very little pad left in the rear, but plenty left in front. Based on dust levels these must be OEM pads, and they look like OEM rotors. It's at 60K miles so I will replace pads and rotors on the rear, maybe the fronts as well, but still... -
Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
If only it were that easy! That's what I am doing, but it's not happening - so far... Is there a specialty pliers for this?? -
Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
OK, I am not a newbie, but dang! How exactly does this come apart?? Intercooler hard plastic coolant pipes, on top, 2 on each side. Duh... Thanks! -
Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
I believe that that is used during shipping and is blanked off upon arrival at the dealership. -
2015 Range Rover HSE V6 supercharged, minor usage of antifreeze, small leak found on passenger side rear of engine
I agree that the dealer has properly diagnosed. Do front cross over, rear manifold (i.e. rear crossover), water pump, thermostat, that assembly that contains the small plastic tube that goes into the water pump, intake manifold gaskets, at a minimum, if possible also supercharger oil...- txfromwi

Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
Sorry, I looked and could not find anything. I am starting this project on Monday - your pain is my learning experience... I suggest calling PalmBeachRover and speaking to Phillip. He is a marvel at finding part numbers... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Well, it's been 3 days and my daughter picked up two "Only Normal Height" messages this morning... I will try re-calibrating... -
New Recall Alert : Fuel System
I just called my local dealership and they confirm that the parts are available. I scheduled both my LR4's for next week. -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
As nearly as I can determine from various Rover and parts websites, the relay is correct. SO, I reflashed the system and set the compressor to AMK. So now the firmware matches the hardware. It's been 2 days (so it has had some time to think about it) and a few trips and no error messages so... -
Just exceeded warranty, where is everyone buying oil and Filters from to perform fluid change
Purchase the socket - eventually with sockets from all my past vehicles I will have a full set - maybe... I only use OEM specified fluids and OEM filters, the oil has been more difficult to purchase lately, but I typically purchase enough so that I have supplies for 1 complete change in my... -
OVERHEATING
Agreed, probably air in the system. I vacuum fill - the last time I did the 2013 it took a second go-round to get all the air out, but I have never needed to use the bleeders. The manual for the 2013 (5.0L, V8) says this when performing a vacuum fill: After you have completed the fill. Set... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
MOST INTERESTING !! Requesting your expertise... The 2016 is now at home for summer maintenance.... IIDTool tells me that the air compressor is a Hitachi - hmmm.. (I was expecting it to say AMK...) I do believe that I can read, and the compressor most clearly says AMK - hmmm.. So let's take... -
Water pump nipple
I spent a few minutes refreshing my memory... I find commonly available, 4 grades of copper and 8 grades of brass, each of which is an alloy of two or more metals. and brass is mainly a copper/zinc alloy. The LR4 block is Aluminum, as is the water pump. So in the base case we are concerned... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Unclear what year vehicle is addressed in the original post. Early years were Hitachi, later years are AMK. I can tell you that my 2013 identifies as AMK - per the IIDTool. And on another post in this group, someone stated that 2014 onwards are AMK. Rover cannot tell me which one is in my... -
Water pump nipple
Let me take a look at it for a more informed answer. Unfortunately for a comprehensive answer we would need a list of every metal (and alloy) in the entire system - and that's pretty unlikely....and there is no such thing as just "Brass" ( and even to a lesser extent the copper and solder in... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Once you have an IIDTool you can see which compressor is installed. It's also easy enough to take off the cover and take a look. I am not sure about Arnott, but I do know that when changing from Hitachi to AMK and vice versa, a new relay is required and the system needs to be reprogrammed. But I... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Long story... Suspension height changes had been very slow (as compared to the 2013) We were off-roading at Land Between the Lakes TN/KY. Lots of hill descent mode - which I believe actively changes the suspension as part of its function. (And works great!) Afterwards, I noticed the pump...
