    LUX vs Vision package

    My HSE also has the vision package. It was a separate option. Not all LUX packages have it either.

    MPG - Gotta be wrong....

    You need a GAP tool to adjust it, or possibly the Land Rover SDD tool, but I'm not familiar with that one. Mine was about 15% too optimistic. I use fuelly.com on every single fill up to track expenses and MPG.

    2011 LR4 HSE Coolant Leak Help

    I don't know about the 2014+, but the V8's are all orange. Pretty sure its basically dex cool but I just bought the Land Rover ****.

    Extend seat rail or increase stopping point distance?

    Average male height pleb here, but I didn't even know that was an option in the CCF. I would imagine its for other seats on the other platforms but I would imagine it's hardware limited, not software. I've changed a few things on my LR4 and had nothing happen before, I wouldn't be surprised if...

    Bad ECM or something else?

    The thermostat is electronically controlled though, it isn't purely mechanical. Also anyone who isn't vacuum bleeding the cooling system is just asking for more work/problems.

    Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4

    I have the V8 but it sounds like noisy fuel injectors. I'm sure someone else can chime in. If the timing chain is bad you'll really only hear it slap on startup, but being a 2016 and having 86k miles on it I'm sure it's fine.

    4WD System Question

    Pretty sure some of the older model years will show the rear diff, so that isn't a good way to tell. If you're driving around in one with the rear locker you'll see it partially lock up while accelerating in a straight line.

    Infotainment Display Error

    Yeah that's odd. I doubt the bright/dark setting will do anything, but figured it would be entertaining at least.

    Infotainment Display Error

    Does it actually work? What happens if you change the display theme to the bright daylight theme instead of the dark theme that most of us run? I think that's in the settings somewhere. Here are some CCF settings from my 2013 ACM-Audio System Bluetooth Bluetooth enabled Bluetooth handsfree...

    First post- going to look at a LR4 soon.

    Haven't we had a few posts here of timing chains going on the V6? The upgraded guides came in mid-late 2013. However, with poor oil change intervals it's not going to do an engine any favors. The crossover pipes grenade way more engines though.

    Missing bolts, anyone know what they would be called?

    Hey I'll take one of mine out, measure it with calipers and figure out the thread size if you want to not spend $40 on a Land Rover screw. I'm not home now, but am willing to do that when I'm back home if you haven't found a solution.

    Looking to buy this LR4, but rattle at cold start. Goes away when warm...

    My 2013 with the updated parts is still running strong at 131k miles. I’m not daily driving it anymore though, so hopefully I never experience a timing chain issue.

    Dash Cam - Best Options?

    I installed a Blackvue (front facing and rear facing cameras) and used an add a fuse for power. Wires are all run in the headliner/door seals and are hidden.

    vibration at idle - motor mounts?

    I've noticed the same in my LR4. Same mileage too, about 131k. Haven't bothered to do anything about it since its subtle, but my first thought went to motor mounts too. I'll take a look at my intake tube clearance at some point.

    No fluid coming out when bleeding rear brakes

    What level is the fluid reservoir at?

    Headlight oxidation

    I’ve gone down the headlight refinishing rabbit hole a few times. Best option is to refinish them, then clear coat them, and then also PPF them with high quality film. Bonus points for sealant/ceramic coating on top of the PPF.

    Is this a sensor or an existing dash cam?

    I have a BlackVue hardwired up. Used an add a fuse for the install. It’s not Land Rover specific in anyway. One add a fuse is switched power, and one of them is constant 12v.

    2016 LR4 3.0L engine vs v8

    What are you looking to do with it? The V8 is going to be slightly better for towing/off roading. V8 has more torque/horsepower. V8 has the 6 speed transmission. All V8's have the 2 speed transfer case. Not all V6's do (it was included in the HD package) V6 has the 8 speed transmission...

    2012 LR4 150k Mile Maintenance

    Preventative maintenance is a great thing to do that most people overlook, with the exception of oil changes. You didn't throw away old parts. You replaced parts that were a ticking timebomb.

    2016 LR4 Landmark SCV6 Engine Failure at 65k. WWYD?

    Considering the amount of ECU changes/configuration updates you need to get the supercharged 5.0 into an LR4, it would be nearly impossible. I know someone has LS swapped an LR4 too, but once again, project car, not daily driver. So yes it is possible, but not practical.

    2016 LR4 Original Owner. 75k. Thinking about selling, but not sure of alternative rides that can do everything this does.

    What kind of trailer? My R1T gets about 1.1 - 1.5 mile per kWh while towing (It's mostly drag dependent, so based on speed. Call it 45 mph to 80 mph) a 6x12 box trailer. 130 kWh usable battery gives you about 140-195 miles on the Rivian, and this is my less efficient build (quad motor, 34" all...

    2016 LR4 Original Owner. 75k. Thinking about selling, but not sure of alternative rides that can do everything this does.

    Grenadier, Defender, and Rivian R1T/S if you want to try something electric. I’m not a Toyota/Lexus fan. Jeeps aren’t refined, Bronco can’t tow like you said… I kept my LR4 but my R1T is my favorite vehicle right now. It’s incredibly capable off road, comfortable, and has a ton of tech which I...

    Best windshield replacement option?

    Well you need to find out who makes the “aftermarket” glass. There are different companies. If Pilkington makes it you’re good. Make sure it’s the one with the heating element too, unless you don’t want it.
