    LR4 Transmission oil change... mixed feelings.

    anyone know if this is the same with 2014 on ZF 8 speeds? I looked at AB site and they dont list any kits for the 2014 and on. I am at almost 60k miles and this may (or MAY NOT) be an issue. I don't even see which ZF part number we have in the HD LR4 with the 8 speeds as ZF makes many 8...

    Is the LR4 good for daily highway travel?

    yeah, all HWY miles i get 285-300 miles going 80+mph. I let it go past empty by a few miles to get that though. AS the tank is 5 gallons bigger than the zero fuel measurement. I usually fill 19-20Gallons.

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    Update on MPG. anecdotal of course, but my average mpg prior to the tune was 13.5. After the tune and about five or six tanks of gas it is 14.4. I drive a mix of LA city, and LA freeway in the hills, going 80-85mph. not exactly the direction i thought it would go, but, there it is.

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    In the shop now for water pump replacement. The Bleeder plug cracked on extraction from the crossover pipe. that took a trip to LR pasadena for a tiny (but still $13) plug. Joy. But you can definitely see how brittle all the plastic is on that pipe. all the heat can't be good for hard...

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    gotta love it! taking mine in wednesday for the pump, thermostat, and various other related parts that might fail. hope that nips things in the bud for the rest of my days with the truck! I spoke with a LR TECH when i did my final warranty repair and he said the only thing he sees regularly...

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    TO be honest, i noticed that more with the tune alone. With the pulley, it feels smoother overall. Not sure why, but it's strong without being so touchy, if that makes sense. As i stated earlier, i dont know if it is me or the car adapting overall, but the tune/pulley combo seems to have...

    Why do american trucks get much better mpg that the lr4?

    Good points. Maybe my right foot is too heavy to see those numbers but I never have seen over 20 for any real length of time. Ram is doing the mild hybrid system now to increase the city mpg. I see some innovation over there that I am not seeing as much in the lr stuff. I am envious of the...

    Why do american trucks get much better mpg that the lr4?

    What have the truck people figured out that LR can't seem to figure out? The LR4 and your average modern full size pickup weigh about the same. But man I have been watching some of these new pickups on TFLTUCK and most of them are getting upwards of 18 Combined, or better... with big honking...

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    Well day two on the tune. Pretty amazing. Feels about like my buddy’s raptor. Very strong. Smoother across the powerband with the pulley on. It really scoots now. Honestly it feels like it should come this way from the factory. Not quite amg g wagon. But closer. Highway ramps are like a...

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    No dealer near me thinks they ever get covered out of warranty so I am ordering the parts myself. Here is the scv6 crossover pipe. https://parts.landroverpalmbeach.com/p/49373519/Lr050934.html Getting the water pump from Atlantic British and the other stuff from lr Paramus parts department. My...

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    yeah, just got in there and there is one. although in my case there is no leaking around there, just the pump. i am trying to find out if there is any soft coverage by corporate for the TSB given that my VIN is in the TSB and i am so close to warranty coverage. If not, I will replace the pump...

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    Also I found umbertob’s link to the TSB for this exact issue. https://m.box.com/shared_item/https%3A%2F%2Fapp.box.com%2Fs%2Flye2qwchuyx6w9hwbhuk91r31owwte3e Anybody had any luck getting this replaced by LR just outside the warranty period? i has it in there 5k who to get it checked for known...

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    Yeah likely. Still working I guess. And not leaked out much. I want to order the parts but am still confused is there a crossover pipe on the scv6 that needs replacing too? All the threads I see are bout the v8. And I looked at the parts diagram and am not seeing it. What am I missing?

    Coolant leak 2014 lr4?

    While installing the new sc pulley from velocity ap my mechanic noticed some dried coolant as per the pictures. Now he colluding find an active leak although it appeared to be originating at the water pump. The coolant levels were fine and no overheating or anything. Not sure why this would...

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    Day two on the tune alone. What i notice so far is that the power feels a little more exponential than linear in my normal driving routine. If that makes sense. When i apply throttle it almost feels like i press it down 30% and then have to back off a little because the car starts pulling...

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    It’s Velocity AP. Not sure if the flasher does datalogging. That would make sense but as I haven’t gotten the pulley in yet I haven’t thought much about it. I think they give you a tune and then work from that starting point if you are unhappy with some aspect of it. So it would make sense...

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    Well i got the tuner, pulley and belt. I have a mac so i had to buy parallels and run windows to get the flasher to work. Kind of a pain as there is a specific sequence of things to get windows to identify the tuner. Not exactly straightforward, but it can work. anyway, i went through the...
