P0526-17 (28) Fan speed sensor circuit - General electrical failure - circuit voltage above threshold
Yup! That’s the same code. Weird, I’m very sure it’s voltage related and we probably have the same issue. I’ll be around the car more in the summer to tinker and play with a few things. I’ll keep you posted if I find anything but I suspect it’s ground related (I’ve replaced the alternator so I’m...- Jimmy Brooks

P0526-17 (28) Fan speed sensor circuit - General electrical failure - circuit voltage above threshold
I've had voltage issues for a long time with my car, some that I'm still chasing down. I tend to get this code along with a fuel pump code (if i remember correctly its one of the high pressure fuel pump) for the circuit staying high. What I noticed is that it would trigger when my voltage would...- Jimmy Brooks

Sudden Hissing near Valve Cover (5.0 V8)
Definitely PCV valves. Funny story I had the same issue minus the white smoke. Ironically I had also just done a decarb on the intake valves right before I noticed the hissing so I assumed that I didn't seat the intake right. So I took another 2 hours pulling off the intake, seeing that all the...- Jimmy Brooks

Wonder how much more value it would bring to the table if it were a 10-13 with the V8.- Jimmy Brooks

Where is my coolant going??
I would do a combustion leak tester on the expansion tank just to rule out the worst. in all honestly I have the same problem right now and haven't gotten around to testing it because I've been away from my LR4. checked water pump and cross overs when I did an intake decarb in December and they...- Jimmy Brooks

heated windshield on -> voltage drops to 12.7
IID tool, I could give you more accurate readings tomorrow. The heated windscreen works great, both sides work flawlessly. I just found it extremely odd that a factory component would tank my voltage that badly, I’ve read so many times that these trucks should not have voltage readings outside...- Jimmy Brooks

heated windshield on -> voltage drops to 12.7
Been chasing down a lot of electrical issues recently, while I was trying to figure out why my car voltage reads a constant 14.5v rather than 13.7-14.2 I discovered that when I turn on my heated windshield my alternator load will quickly go from around 30% to 100% load and pull around 100 amps...- Jimmy Brooks

Three amigos after getting to operating temp.
It’s all related, suspension will lower, transmission fault will display, no special programs or HDC, traction control, the whole system will shut down when there is some type of wiring issue. A couple of years ago I got a subwoofer installed and while routing the positive cable through the...- Jimmy Brooks

Three amigos after getting to operating temp.
does the code just appear when you start the car or does it trigger when you try to use the shifter. if it comes on right when you start the car then it sounds electrical. Does the transmission shift into gear despite the code? If it doesn’t then it could be the bridge seal and mechatronic...- Jimmy Brooks

When is it time to say goodbye?
Yeah they normally are automatic and I don’t even think you can see the faults unless you have good scanner. But yeah, the reason I know is because of the gap tool, and then I experience it when I go skiing.- Jimmy Brooks

is it both seats or just one? if its both front seats then its probably a fuse.- Jimmy Brooks

When is it time to say goodbye?
I used to think they were heater elements, they're actually radio antennas. I will say though that the heated mirrors tend to go on these cars, I need to try to clean the connections on my drivers side mirror to try to revive it.- Jimmy Brooks

Intermittent clicking sound at idle 5.0L V8
I second this, would do some investigating around the fan shroud, but just based off of the sound I'd guess fan clutch guess fan clutch before anything timing or injector related.- Jimmy Brooks

Auxiliary Battery
Here's your passage with corrected spelling, grammar, and punctuation while keeping it as original as possible: It's 100% accurate. Rod bearings in any engine experience the most wear when the vehicle is started up. The oil pumps in engines made today and in the past are predominantly...- Jimmy Brooks

Coolant Temps
Believe your thermostat is closed in this photo. the second temp sensor 2 is the cooling loop going through the radiator. this would mean that your thermostat is closed so the loop is continuously cycled through the block to heat the coolant. i assume your probably running the heater in this as...- Jimmy Brooks

Under Hood Insulation
yeah I third that. Usually if its to prevent any heat and keep it insulated there will be heat shielding. for these cars its just a design/noise insulation. for cars with a "hot V" engine where the turbos are where the intake manifold is in these cars, in the V, thats when you start to see...- Jimmy Brooks

Rough 5-4 change ZF6
It’s odd, it’s not the back and forth that’s the issue it’s the first shift into 4th after driving for five or take 20-30 minutes in 6th. I don’t mind hard shift either but this was a proper buck that makes it feel like someone is rear ending you while it does it.- Jimmy Brooks

Rough 5-4 change ZF6
I feel like I’ve been down this road one too many times… I got a reman Trans in my 2010 LR4, it’s got about 14,500 miles on it. Some weird behavior became apparent while driving on my ski trip to mammoth mountain this week. The transmission developed a hard shift between 5-4 after being in 6th...- Jimmy Brooks

150k miles, time for differential and transfer case fluids
Just hit 150k and both diffs and transfer case needs new fluid. Any specific fluid I should use or just the regular Land Rover fluid. Also could someone link me a pump tool to pump the diff fluid into the diff? On a side note, anyone know what size socket will crank bolt, need to do an intake...- Jimmy Brooks

2012 LR4 V-8 vs 2015 LR4 V-6 Quirks
I had a weird thing a couple of weeks ago where the sensors would beep a couple times then stop then beep a couple of times and constantly repeat. Tried to wipe them and it didn’t work so then I reverted to old reliable and gave each of them a smack with my hand and they started working properly...- Jimmy Brooks

Wheel Tire Question
Those will fit, I feel like that’s an ok deal if the tires are in good condition and wheels are perfect. If there’s even a scratch on those wheels then I would say 1100 max is fair- Jimmy Brooks

A/C Help
Went back into the D5 this morning and turned the AC blower on low. When I toggle the AC switch on I can hear a slight hissing coming from inside the dash when the A/C button is toggled on. When I say Henning, I mean, it’s very similar to the noise you hear when you stand next to a house is...- Jimmy Brooks
