    Vibration and grinding feeling

    ....could it just be your tires???

    Low range problem

    How healthy is your battery? If the codes are legit, then you have an electrical issue either due to water ingress or a bad hi/lo switch. For code 3 it sounds like a rear diff issue; hopefully just the (locking) motor and not the whole differential.

    2005 LR3 SE

    Well you are on the right track. Get the leak sorted. Not only the sunroof drains but check the A-pillar trim and the windshield cowling. Then go through the wiring.

    2005 LR3 SE

    Is the passenger floorboard damp? If so, wife Connections may be damaged or severed.

    Another Defender hint?

    Fair point....I mean "real" Rovers like Discos, RRs and Defenders. The LR4 still has 10" in front and 13" in rear (of wheel travel) which is more than the G-Wagen....and most other vehicles in its class.

    Another Defender hint?

    While a locking diff in front is nice, I've always questioned how valuable it really is....maybe because I don't have one! For real though, usually you need help going UP hills, not down...and in those cases all the weight is in the back anyway. Between that and 4ETC, I just don't know how much...

    Lr3 or Disco I?

    Your friends with Discos don't have trouble with them...? Do they drive them? Seems like Discos are far more problematic than LR3s.

    Lr3 or Disco I?

    LR3 is far superior. Maintenance cost is really more dependant on mileage per year than straight time.

    Red Clay Rally, The Rovers are Coming

    With these big ol' tires....nobody has had an issue with the EAS wiring in the front left wheel well? I have done the mod whereby I moved it to the top of the frame via zip-tie, but my 32.6" Cooper still ripped it down last weekend and caused a suspension fault. (interestingly enough...

    Suspension fault, not hearing the compressor turn on, jumper the relay?

    If the compressor isn't turning on then 99% it's the problem. That other 1% is if your suspension is so out of whack that your compressor won't actuate.

    Another Defender hint?

    My first vehicle was a Bronco II....an '84, which was not fuel injected. It was awful.

    Another Defender hint?

    If the new Bronco looks like THAT pic and has a removable top (option), it will destroy the Defender...granted that it was mechanically on par.

    Possible Electrical Issue

    How healthy is your battery?

    Looking for advice on taking a stock LR3 up a notch to be a bit more capable

    Sounds like you have it on lock. Get some 31" tires for those 18s. Sliders and a skid plate for the tranny....then assess.

    LR4 on 33's

    Ahhh so it's the same output as the original 5.0L ??

    LR4 on 33's

    What is the torque at 1000 RPM for that LR4 with the new engine?

    LR4 on 33's

    Uhhhh wait....the entire quarter panel or just the wheel arch?

    LR4 on 33's

    My 2005 is for fun only as well...my preference is to go as big as I can without making mechanical changes. So for me the 275/65R18 is it. 2.4" OD smaller than a 35, and that is significant for sure, but the Crawl Ratio is still good and I don't worry about CV joints or axles or any of that.

    New LR4, Old LR3...what to do?

    I'd keep the 2008. That's a no-brainer.
