    Seen this?

    :) Yes, McGovern has gone a bit overboard with this whole "crushed" roof line in the rear. I sat in the rear seat of a new FFRR a few weeks ago (think it was autobiography) and even with that huge sky light the space back there felt constricted. Sincerely hope they dont F it up for the new...

    Accident when off roading

    Wow. Really glad to know that no one was hurt, good health is everything. I am not sure how bad, fast, intensity of the roll was but doesn't this show that FFRR does not really have a good rollover protection. By just looking at the way the roof caved in, it doesn't seem that the A and/or B...

    Why no chains on rear wheels?

    Great thread. Seems like that the LR' recommendation of chains on the fronts only could be the good old legal liability issue, much like the advice given by most manufacturers about always putting the new tires on the fronts, if bought in set of two, even if the rear tires are more worn out...

    2014 LR4 lux delivery

    Thats how I felt, at least partly, when I went from my LR3 to LR4. My LR3 HSE was more comfortable and well planted on pot holes etc with its softer suspension set up. LR4, with its firmer suspension, feels a bit more firm and less comfortable on the same streets and bumps (where I drove my...

    2014 LR4 lux delivery

    I can see that. But look at what Mercedes did with the G Class. The GL was supposed to be its replacement, but they heard so much from their customers that they decided to continue production and have done an amazing job of keeping it up do date with all the modern day amenities and powerful...

    2014 LR4 lux delivery

    I wonder if LRNA visits/reads these forums. Told an FSE at a dealership last week that I'd gladly pay close to 80k to 90k for a non blingified (no 20" or 22" wheels etc) supercharged V8, better yet, a TDV8 (once offered in a RR) LR4.

    Watching iPhone/other USB device's video on the Nav screen (US). Possible?

    Has anyone been able to watch video out of any device (USB stick, iPhone, etc) on their nav screen? I am really curious and would love to be able to watch any type of video out of my iphone (youtube, tv channels app, etc) on the nav screen, either while parked or while moving (for the passenger...

    2014 LR4 lux delivery

    I heard/read somewhere (i think it was review/comparison between the new range rover and G wagon, on youtube) that the story with the G-Wagon was that Mercedes had decided to pull the plug but there was quite a bit out cry from owners out there and they decided to continue the model. I am a big...

    LR, please, Please and Please, Do not mess with LR4.

    Continued from above: LR4 minimalist/product design: It is a timeless design. McGovern did a good job of refreshing LR3 with LR4 (except the part of aft of the rear wheel well, it gives a feeling of funny car' tail end sometimes. Recycling of rear quarter panel may have led to that design...

    LR, please, Please and Please, Do not mess with LR4.

    Land Rover/Tata, please and please do not mess with Discovery/LR4 I pretty much agree with everything that you have said. I have been meaning to write for a long time about the change in direction for LR4 (and Land Rovers in general) and its been brewing for a while so today I thought I start...

    Prettiest "0" I've ever seen.

    I would be very much interested in being able to display the tire pressures from all five tires either on the nav or in the instrument panel screen, if possible at all. It just bugs me that I could see the psi numbers from all four tires on a dodge sedan like eight years ago, on its dash...

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Yeah. I was amazed myself. But really the Service director is really nice, I just didnt have the balls to get confrontational with him, but inside I was really like, WTH!. Either way, just picked up the truck, it all looks straight now, but the real test is when i drive home from work today.

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Took the vehicle back. Shop foreman immediately noticed the off steering few secs after the drive. Picked up the car at the end of day, same thing. Steering cocked to left again, with very slight improvement from before. Brought the vehicle back today. Service director drove the car with...

    TPMS data on the 4x4 info screen or an iphone app

    Is there a LRNA phone number, website etc where you could suggest things for firmware update or feature requests etc?

    TPMS data on the 4x4 info screen or an iphone app

    Would have been great to see the tire pressure (real time data) for all four wheels right next to the wheels icons/pictogram on the 4x4 info screen. If I can see the tire pressure for all four wheels on the instrument panel of a seven or eight years old dodge sedan or a couple years old equinox...

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Thanks all. So i got the truck back and was told that all was within green, but they said that they still fine tuned it even more. As I drove home after work that evening (local streets, freeway, and then back to local streets), I noticed that the steering wheel is off centered (turned to...

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Wasnt going fast at all, just normal turning speed. Its just that I felt that the bounce off was a slight jolty but rubbery. No metal sound at all.

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Getting another alignment after hitting the curb. No particular reason for hitting the curb except that there was a car to my left in its own lane waiting for green and that I cut right a little short.

    Tire rotation warning in Owner's Handbook.

    On page 194 it says "Do not rotate tires around the vehicle". Thought that it was a good practice to cross sides when rotating tires on and AWD. Am i misreading whats mentioned in the handbook?

    Rear wheel hit the curb while making right turn.

    Happened this morning. Rear right wheel bashed off the curb and I felt a kinda hard rubbery bounce on the rear of the truck. No metal noise etc. Just had the alignment done last week (when the steering column was replaced under warranty). No scratches on the rim, thank God. But there was...

    Rubbing Noise from Steering Column

    Interesting. I had the exact same issue with my 2013. This slight rubbing/whining noise was starting to get worse and would increase in intensity after driving for a bit (or when it was a bit warm outside/inside.) It sounded very much like a piece of plastic rubbing against another plastic...

    Would love your opinion.

    Yes I do, thats whats being used as of now. Its brand new, not sure if its a good thing to have just brand new tire among others with over 5k miles on them. I guess more work for the diffs. Not good, right?

    Would love your opinion.

    Hi all, update on things: So just to summarize, Last visit to service was right before the 4th of july weekend. Road tested with shop foreman. He recognized the steering knock. But when i went back to pick the car up, the service manager told me that there is nothing wrong with the car and...
