    2011 5.0 head gaskets

    coincidently, the misfire on cylinder three just came back on my engine. i'm going to have it looked at as soon as i can. but, looks like a new remanned engine is in my near future. the K-Seal fix/bandaid lasted 7 months. not bad, i suppose.

    2011 LR4 Suspension code U3000-1D

    thanks for your help, all. especially, Rover Range. it was a broken wire in the loom that runs near the rear left wheel well. wire is repaired and all is good. black wire with a green stripe. i guess last time i was down at the farm, something got caught up there and tore it.

    2011 LR4 Suspension code U3000-1D

    changed out the original Hitachi compressor today with a HD Hitachi style compressor from Lucky8. prior to changing the compressor, i was getting occasional codes stating the compressor was too slow to fill. i thought i had screen shot the code and exact language, but can't find it on my...

    OEM vs knockoff gas cap

    i picked up a Chinese knockoff and have had no issues. well, other than the restraining strap not friction fitting in the retaining hole (can't think what else to call that right now).

    2011 5.0 head gaskets

    that's what the research i've been doing seems to indicate. so, with that in mind, i poured a bottle of K-Seal Ultimate in the expansion tank. after driving around for a day, the misfires are gone and the check engine light has turned itself off and stayed off for the last week or so. yes, i...

    2011 5.0 head gaskets

    dropped the LR4 off at the mechanic's to diagnose the misfire codes. looks like there is coolant leaking into cylinders 3 and 4 per the borescope. is it worth it to have the head gaskets redone or is a used engine the better bet? prior to my buying the LR4 the head gaskets had been done by a...

    Different oil level readings with hood open

    you're right. i didn't need to do it. i just did it to see if there was a difference in readings based on methods. per my previous post, i did the oil level reading per the owner's manual. then i turned the LR4 off, then back to the on mode (Start button pushed, no brake pedal...

    Different oil level readings with hood open

    2011 LR4 5.0 Rover sat on level ground for at least half an hour after driving. went out and checked the oil per the manual. read exactly at the halfway mark. then checked it via the bypass method. showed 0.5 quart low. i have not yet had the opportunity to run the test again.

    www.troublecodes.net/landrvr/ here's a link. all the codes you listed are misfire codes. definitely change out the plugs and wires.

    96 Disco Problems (w/fault codes)

    your mechanic's advise is a good place to start. try some kingsborne 8mm wires and the cheap champion plugs. i wouldn't use the OE 7mm wires. when i went with those my fuel mileage actually dropped. i couldn't find the link i used to have to the obd2 codes or else i would have...

    Gary

    i'll second calling Will Tillery. I've used him several times. Usually has the best prices and turn around time is usually very quick.

    SES No Power, Fuel Filter and Door locks

    Mike is right. Get the codes read. The flashing SES I can often mean misfires. This may be something as simple as new plugs and wires. I think most local autoparts stores will read the codes for free. Write down what codes come up and then get back to the forum.
