    LR4 squealing brake pads with a recent change from the dealer...

    These are great points. This is my first break job, so no, I didn't do any of those. Rotors are in great condition, replaced last time. Just for good measure, I'll touch them up with emery cloth anyways. What grit do you use? I have new clips, but they look different shape (came with the...

    LR4 squealing brake pads with a recent change from the dealer...

    I got the fedoro pads from fcp euro as well. Rotor still genuine. I changed them myself and it squeals. I've driven less than 1k miles since replacement, hoping it'll stop soon.

    LR Time YouTube Videos

    Hmm, good point. Although the points they made seemed it would equally apply to petrol engines. That's another reason why I'm sticking to my spec for now, until there's a consensus about moving away from spec for our exact models.

    LR Time YouTube Videos

    Oh yes, LR Time content is a must watch for disco enthusiasts. Christian and Vera have unlimited energy - they truly are influencers, make me want to pick up the wrench. Although I have to say, they go through the work so fast, for newbies like me, i can't follow. It's fun to watch, but it's...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Yeah, that's what I figured, and ended up leaving the spark plugs alone for now. At 75K, so I can afford to wait another 15-20k miles.

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    No worries, manual bleed worked (I think). So yes, my sequence was different (radiator first, than front crossover and then by the battery). Also, I was able to raise coolant tank almost 2 inches and had coolant coming out of all 3 bleed points without needing to start the car. I still started...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Hi @jlglr4 , thanks for posting the manual bleed method. In the process of carrying out the method right now (2015 my) and it appears the first port to bleed is the top of radiator. Ant idea why that is the first one before front crossover? (Coolant tank raised more than 1.5"). Does it matter if...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Quick question to all - how important is a vacuum fill for the final coolant fill? I'll need to buy the vacuum tool and an air compressor, need to figure out how to use it, etc. Just added expense and time... Could I not just fill tank, turn on car, as coolant level goes down, add more again and...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    That is true. I can do later as well, although there're a bunch of hoses and fuel lines that are off, just feels like a bit more room.

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Yup, that's what I'm doing. Fluid, coupler, PCV Valve, purge valve, water pump, thermostat and the coolant pipes. Any thoughts about spark plug?

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Hey Dan @txfromwi and @Turismo Kid , I took this pic just to share with you (see below). Thanks to Dan's through explanation, I was able to detach in less than 5 mins But don't worry, "there was much sadness" for me too, on various other items. In particular, everything to do with rear...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Here's an update on my experience...I got a 2015 65k hse lux a year ago. Did my research, knew coolant pipe is a must. For various reasons, project was pushed, but was finally ready to do the project 3 months ago. Realized parts are backordered. I kept an eye on the back ordered parts, while...

    At Long Last... Modern head unit!

    To me the best solution seems to be from Isudar (used by NTKC YouTube channel). It's not changing the screen and therefore not losing the 4x4 screen or any of the old school charm. Only thing it loses is the navigation (which is ancient) and replaced with apple carplay or Android auto. It's also...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Congrats @Turismo Kid for completing the task and good call on PCV Valve. I'll add it to my list. Still waiting on back ordered parts to become available so I can get the parts in, and get started. Great shout out to @txfromwi. I also watched the vid multiple times - clearly took ages to put...

    P0442 code and CEL - 2012 LR4

    Thanks @Jimmy Brooks. Mine is the 3L SCV6 engine, and I'm not facing the start issue, just CEL popping up with small Evap leak code. Do your directions apply up my model year as well?

    P0442 code and CEL - 2012 LR4

    I wanted to do a smoke test, but all how to articles/videos seem to suggest it's a frustrating exercise. Can you suggest a good test on Amazon? Can't seem to find any cheap and good. Btw, I have a 15MY LR4 - where is the purge valve on this? I don't have a service manual -that would have...

    P0442 code and CEL - 2012 LR4

    Glad I found this thread. I've been getting the gas cap warning, followed by CEL. Cleared a couple of times, but need to address it. Gas cap arriving tomorrow, but pretty sure that won't do it. I'll follow the guidance some folks have provided here.
