    How to check the battery voltage with the settings menu

    I haven't heard of this on the LR3....and I know on the LR4 there is another small battery that operates the start/stop feature, so the electrical is a little different.

    High Output Alternator for LR3

    You just got 200,000 miles out of the OEM alternator. Let that sink in...

    LR3 central locking failed?

    ....also, that looks like the dash of an LR4. The LR4 message board may be more useful to you.

    To buy or not to buy...

    I would be looking at the service history. Lots of work should have done at 150k, one of which is not stated in the maintenance manual. Spark plugs and injectors around 100k Tranny fluid at 100k (not stated) Diff oil 2 or 3x over by now Look at the front diff breather - that will inform you...

    NEED HELP!! Multiple faults

    Does the fault clear after you cycle power and then come back after a few miles of driving?

    Being in Access Mode for extended periods?

    I'd check the brake lights in the back, the tail lights and also the brake switch.

    Being in Access Mode for extended periods?

    Not very far....there is not much travel in the suspension when it's in Access Height.

    Being in Access Mode for extended periods?

    I don't think I'd drive it like that....not for that distance. Curious, is it the switch or what? Is it LOCKED in Access Height or can you drive it ~20mph and see if it raises automatically? If it does, pull the EAS fuses and it will stay at Normal Height.

    Can not go into low / rockcrawl

    Could be the switch....could be corrosion under that console.

    17Inch on LR3 (HSE V8)

    Yep....so borrowing a random 17" rim (not sure how that is going to ever happen) is going to be a waste of time. I'm not musing here; I KNOW that you have to swap the brake components. A buddy of mine has done this and he stated that it's required. Hell....at one point I used non-LR 18s and I...

    17Inch on LR3 (HSE V8)

    I have a friend who did that.....he had to swap his brake calipers out for the V6 ones.

    LR3 transfer case : where is the breather located?

    Is that photo of your Rover? If so, you might consider getting the larger updated diff breather cap.

    The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread

    Yeah, good looking rig! Which roof rack is that? Guessing Baja or Voyager.

    Active Suspension issues after replacing rear upper control arms

    Why the upper rears? Haven't heard too many instances of those failing in 15 years of LR3 ownership. Do you have an IIDTool or some other code reader? Is the EAS throwing a code? Where/how is it telling you that you're locked out? May want to recalibrate.

    2007 LR3 front differential ?

    Hmmm....ok. So differentials produced after 2009 are probably okay.

    2007 LR3 front differential ?

    I thought the use of that coating was ceased after a year or two....no?

    2007 LR3 front differential ?

    I've never heard of any diff "sudden death." I've heard the opposite....that it just gets louder and louder. In fact I have never heard of any total failure and/or what happens in that instance and I've been on these message boards for almost 15 years.

    2007 LR3 front differential ?

    Tough one....won't hurt anything to change the fluid now and wait to change out the diff, or just change it now and save the $ you would have spent on new fluid. Only benefit of changing the fluid and waiting is that perhaps new oil makes the diff quiet down and maybe you don't really need to...

    Fault Code U0167-00 (2A) Lost Comms with Vehicle Immobilizer

    ....has to do with systems on the MOST network getting cranky.

    Fault Code U0167-00 (2A) Lost Comms with Vehicle Immobilizer

    I'll add that I've been advised to wait 15 minutes BEFORE completing the following step: Connect the negative cable end to the positive cable end. (NOT to the battery.)

    2006 LR3 HSe wiring question

    ....why was the AC draining onto the floor in the first place?

    Faults with new to me LR3

    It will pay for itself over and over and over again. You're actually spending more money by NOT having one...and I don't even turn wrenches, much.

    Battery or Alternator?

    I use Vinylex by Lexol for the molded plastics; there are lots of suggestions though.

    Battery or Alternator?

    It's funny, so many people complain about the night games; I love them! Funny thing is it's the sissies in Portland complaining because they get home so late...since I'm driving down from north of Seattle and staying two nights in town, they get no sympathy from me! Anyway, I digress....I do...
