    Cylinder 3 Video That I can push down on cylinder 3 is bad. That it makes an audible clunk is very bad.

    Check engine light on

    Honestly I'd probably let the dealership plug it in and scan.

    Quote for AC compressor R&R

    Only bumping/ posting here because I just freed my AC compressor from the block. I had very little in the way and that bolt on the back is a royal pain.

    Check engine light on

    Do you know if you had those codes before you did the cooling system upgrade? I would guess something is not plugged in.

    Valve cover gasket replacement ($3,200)

    I have heard of some challenges removing injectors from these 3.0 and 5.0 motors. With that kind of mileage I'd replace the plugs, coils, and injectors if you don't know their history.

    Forgot to include a picture of the current state for those that are curious.

    TBD on the engine. Once it is out I'll probably do a mild tear down to see what actually is the problem and go from there. Getting it rebuilt only makes sense if I can find someone local who's willing to do the work. While the bumper is off and the engine is out, what else should I replace...

    My wife likes the LR4 enough and thinks highly of my abilities so I'm attempting an engine removal in the driveway. Current status is that the front clip has been removed. Fan, radiator, and trans cooler are out. Batteries and battery boxes are out. The AC condenser is still in place, plan...

    So, what did you end up doing? Asking for a friend.

    So at just under 104k miles I've had a rod bearing stop doing it's job. Admittedly the vehicles been driven less than 10 miles in this condition. I've only had it for 18 months and less than 10k miles. Two oil changes have been done in that time, last one 1,200 miles ago. With the obvious...

    Noise? Rod Knock

    So that's what it sounds like when a rod bearing gives up in a SCV6. Drained the oil, it looked fine. Cut open the filter and I was getting glitter everywhere.

    Noise? Rod Knock

    Brief update on my own diagnostic work. I had a pending code for general misfire (p0300) and misfire on cylinder 3 (p0303). Pulled the plugs from that bank and stuck the camera in there. No obvious signs of the piston and valves giving each other a high-five. Did a compression test on that...

    Pulled the belts. Still making a bunch of noise. Off to the independent mechanic tomorrow.

    Noise? Rod Knock

    Running some errands around town and thought I heard a little ticking noise. Played around with throttle position to see if I could make it happen. Goes away while coasting. Pulled into a parking lot about 4 miles from my house and it sounded like belt squeal as I was turning. Sounds real...

    Dieseling engine noise

    I think you can check the cam angle in the live values with the gap tool. They're probably fine. For a "refined" vehicle the motor is pretty noisy.

    U3000-63 & "Park Aid Unavailable"

    I have not removed the tire carrier and bumper to take another look at mine. Only real problem with leaving it broken is the annoying beep at startup.

    Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order

    I know of a G wagon for sale, only asking $35k. It has 270k miles.

    Testing air suspension for leaks?

    My old Ram would lower into aero mode at like 55mph. 100mph in something less aerodynamic than an old Volvo seems like a bad idea.

    Cylinder 5 Misfire

    When the injectors were replaced, are you sure they did the correct bank? On my v6 the dealer said they replaced coils and plugs on 4, 5, and 6. Upon further inspection they replaced 1, 2, and 3. I could tell because they wrote the date on the coils.

    8-Speed Transmission Pan

    I didn't use rtv on the transmission, just on the o-ring isolators on the heat shield as glue.

    8-Speed Transmission Pan

    I was getting some hard shifting while the transmission was cold and being at a little over 100k miles I figured it was time to drain it, drop the pan and put a new one in. Ordered the kit from Atlantic it went pretty well, putting my experience here to maybe help others. Transmission cross...

    Terrafirma Accessories

    Thought I'd post something that might be of use to other members instead of my usual, "please help me". Put the the terrafirma roof rack, ladder, and tire carrier on my truck last fall. A few tips and tricks for anyone else out there. The roof rack comes with stainless hex drive bolts. Toss...
