    Anyone's alarm randomly going off?

    Also happens when the battery is on the way out. Mine exhibited this most recently.

    Dash Cam Recommendations for the LR4?

    I've been using the FalconZero for some time in mine, hard wired to 12v all the time. Works great, barely ever touch it or notice it. Is always running. https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B014S09OKO/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&condition=all

    Sweet smell, coolant leak, ugh...

    Took a few drive cycles but I found some leak down on the lower passenger corner of the Rad. Suspect it is corrosion/hole of some kind as it appears extremely small and I'm losing about half a cup of coolant every 300-500 miles. Ordered a rad and going to pull it this weekend.

    Sweet smell, coolant leak, ugh...

    I'm getting the sweet smell, even after changing the crossover. Top end had no signs of coolant evaporation but I'm leaking coolant from somewhere intermittently and the reservoir looks dry on the exterior. Added dye, waiting to check tonight. Pump is only a year old and looks dry as well.

    Radiator replacement help!

    Looks like I too have to replace the radiator. Developed a leak/corrsion near the base. Any specific feedback, hints on pulling and replacing it? I've done the AC evap/condensor on the LR3 and assume this will be as much of a pain. Thanks!

    Heavy coolant leak / failure

    Hey Folks, I just replaced my front crossover and after buttoning everything up, am getting two fault codes and rough running. P0122 and P2135. Replaced the crossover out of caution/mileage, no apparent leak though had some low coolant warnings a few months ago. But for the life of me, can't...

    Wear & Tear hvac knobs - door armrest

    That kind of blemish isn't wear. More likely from a chemical such as sunscreen, bug spray, etc. I've had sunglasses, etc show the same surface bubbling.

    LR4 Mileage Poll

    I have a '12 HSE I've owned from new with 75K miles. And a '06 LR3 I bought with 150K miles that is now over 180K. Judging from how the abused LR3 is holding up and ticking over the miles, I'm pretty confidant in the LR4.

    LR 4 - Rock Through Radiator?

    I don't see how a rock hits the radiator head on without taking out the condensor as well. The condensor sits in front of the radiator and is nearly the entire size of the radiator. Only location this could happen is at the bottom by the cross member perhaps. Something doesn't sound right.

    Showoff Your LR4

    I've been going to Romp since 2003 so know it well. This year was pretty good, snow was deep (3-4ft). I usually drive my d-90 so this year was unique with the LR4. It was heavy, really heavy. I found it hard to get on top of the snow pack and the MT and chains and horsepower, it high centered...

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    I recently did this pan swap and service on my LR4 at 76K miles. I've done it on the LR3 earlier this year. I too use 4 car ramps and leave the truck in access height. Unfortunately the britpart pan I initially received had a stress fracture by the drain neck in it, that I did not notice...

    What's with JLR?/Defender rant

    Tend to disagree with this on two fronts. One is that LR rolled out the evoque, Velar, etc, very quickly from concept to production. Two, can anyone can explain to me who the target markets are for each of the models in the RR line-up? They all overlap, all blend together in function and...

    LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?

    I also recently had a tapping noise but it was the water pump failing at 76K miles. So don't let the anxiety get you down. Could be something else.

    Loud Tone from Sound System at startup

    Yes, exactly right, changed it to not fitted. I'll change it to rear only and see what it does. PDC button just blinks when you put it in reverse but the tone happens before this.

    Loud Tone from Sound System at startup

    '12, I recently installed an ARB bumper and made some changes to the truck. This included disabling the park-distance sensors via IID. Since completing all of this work, when I start up the truck, I get a very loud tone for about 3-5 seconds over the sound system. It happens right away after...

    Cold weather transmission failure

    It is definitely ecu/electronic management/battery low voltage at startup related, not frozen fluid or trans failure. I drive both and LR3 and Lr4, both have had interesting strange reactions to the multiple days of negative temps. Mostly suspension faults at startup or errant messages that clear.

    Ticking sound

    I had a ticking for a while and found it to be the water pump bearing was going. Replaced the pump. Can you use the screw driver method of listening to components?

    Hidden Winch Install

    Not sure what to tell you. I wasn't willing to hack into the metal due to the support it provides around the rad. Only other option is to leave it locked and freespool using the motor.

    Prospeed roof ladder and light bar

    You can do either. I ran wires under the trim piece to the engine. But their are also trim holes top and bottom you can enlarge (one of which you have to use on the pass side if you install the factory snorkel.

    front lower control arm install

    Check your uppers as well. I had the same and it was loose tie rod and upper arms were shot. Lowers were fine.

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    I skimmed the thread but couldn't yet find the answer. a friend is buying a '14 with V6, any difference in caliper/rotor clearance versus the older LR4's (pre-'13)? OR does the same advice apply (compos or "18LR3 rim with spacer for any year)?
