    Infotainment issue

    59 I believe means model year in the UK? Is it a 2011? I'm not sure if the backend unit is the same as the Disco 3. I don't see the video? My unit had trouble remembering radio codes! I bought one for $105 on Ebay (£87). This solved all my issues in that respect and took a few hours to...

    Suspension Fault Issues

    Here's the scoop with Christian and why he's recommended changing the ride height while looking for leaks with soapy liquid (and if I recall he found the leak in the front valve when changing the ride height). The typical pressure in the gallery (this is the pipes that connect between the...

    Lr4 detachable hitch receiver bent

    I've not seen any internal hitch parts on the market; I'm in need of the pin that slides back and forth but could never find one so I made do with what I have. Joining you in the chorus... The video by Powerful UK is super helpful; I used this when I pulled mine apart.

    Current Tire Recommendations?

    I've also heard great things about the crossclimate2; have a few friends here in MI that run them and like the snow performance. Also, they're Michelin! I'm a fan! We run Blizzak's on my wife's car; they're great in the snow but also a little nosier than the summer tire. I watched this some...

    Bike Racks!!! Any ideas?

    I have this button: I can turn it off; but as soon as I go in reverse again the sensors become active so I have to turn it off every time! I have a 1up rack which is a beautiful piece of engineering but sits right in front of the sensor; not sure how to turn this off more permanently? It's a...

    Compressor running

    Wonder now if it is a valve block internal issue? Servicing the valve blocks is really easy; removing the rear valve block being the exception! I'd start with the middle one (just in front of the compressor) as that's the easiest to access; start there and see if it clears your code? This...

    Quick Compressor Replacement Question

    I serviced my three valve blocks (cleaned them out, added new o'rings and silicon greased the o'rings), other than the o'rings I'm not sure what can be done or why the valve blocks would fail; I don't see how the parts could wear excessively to need replacement? Perhaps the solenoids? You may...

    My LR4 Journal

    Congratulations and welcome back to the "club" :). It sounds like a great drive other than the jetlag which I know is brutal when getting back from Japan.

    Strange misfires on the RH Cyl 1,3,5,7

    "does a good scan tool pin point what the cause for the misfires are?" I think it's like any other OBD tool in that it will give you the error codes; the skill is not getting the codes but deciphering what they're telling you. In that respect, the folks on this forum have been excellent in...

    Has anyone run the Rubicon Trail in an LR3 or LR4?

    The photos and videos are insane, absolute respect to the guys who did it; I'm happy to be an armchair spectator on this one!

    Strange misfires on the RH Cyl 1,3,5,7

    General consensus on this forum appears to be the GAP IID Tool: https://www.gap-diagnostic.com/products/iidtool/ https://lucky8llc.com/products/gap-diagnostic-iidtool-bluetooth-connectivity A cheap but way less powerful tool is this...

    Pressure doesn’t decrease when venting gallery

    This is exactly the issue I had (C1A13-64); please take a look at my journey on this particular thread: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/2012-lr4-reluctant-to-lower-from-off-road-suspension-mode.44636/ For me it ended up being wrong ECU firmware for the installed compressor but to get to...

    2012 LR4 Reluctant to lower from off-road suspension mode

    Hi @Longtrail - you and I must be living parallel lives. 2011 LR4 Lux 5.0L V8 non-HD w/ 105,000 miles. I got the same fault code on my first scan w/ the unit you suggested. Mine says it's intermittent and I am not having the same problems you did (yet). I also have an inclined driveway and when...

    2012 LR4 Reluctant to lower from off-road suspension mode

    Also, if you jack up one of the corners; the opposite corner will also make adjustments! I think mine recently put itself in off-road height when I was "playing" with the rear handbrake system - see separate thread that I posted for that amusement!

    2012 LR4 Reluctant to lower from off-road suspension mode

    I believe it will do this self-leveling every two hours; this is the reason when you're trying to diagnose air-leak issues that you remove the RLM (Ride Level Module) fuses so that the RLM ECU is removed from that equation.

    2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start

    Absolutely agreed, I see it as paying it forward; there's nothing worse than following a thread, then having somebody say "I fixed the issue" only to discover that the resolution is missing :( - Great!

    Suspension Fault Issues

    You're bang on the money, reset all the codes and then see which ones keep coming back... Once you've got some consistent ones then start trying to figure out what's causing them. For example, mine kept having a mirror code issue, figuring it wasn't that important I ignored it until I had...

    2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start

    This is great to know, LR4 won't start with particular symptoms then look at the mega fuse which is part number LR080537 and rated at 400a, a great search that hopefully helps others who stumble on this issue (perhaps us one day!).

    Suspension Fault Issues

    It will give you many codes that the IIDTool will so it's definitely a good starting point; in the aforementioned post I provided some of the graphs that the tool can provide; so opening and closing of valves. For $49 that pretty darn good and at least gets you in the OBD game! Keep us posted...

    Suspension Fault Issues

    In my long post on my suspension woes I mention the poor mans IIDTool: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QD4GZW4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 In the end I succumbed and bought the IID tool and this solved all my issues by reflashing for the AMK compressor (Suspension ECU...

    2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start

    Any chance of a photo - I'm curious. Sorry the starter didn't work; knowing this I'd be looking at things that can stop it turning over, so brake pedal switch, gear selector (?), lack of juice, etc...

    2013 to 2014 Face Lift Headlight Install

    I had a lot of little issues when I started with mine (still have many more issues to resolve...), finickity stuff that was annoying! Part of what made it mine was working through these issues... Hang tough you will get there! Figure out what's important and start there; don't sweat the...

    2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start

    I'd be curious to hear about the steps involved, I was looking for a YouTube video but couldn't find a great step by step video for the LR4! Keep us posted - Thanks.
