    Roof Rack Conundrum

    You need to pull the black rubber cap on the top of each end and loosen the small hex head screw. Then tighten it once you've locked them in. This is far less time consuming.

    Towing LED's

    No idea on the '15 but I switched my lights to LED to tow with my '12 and had no issues.

    North-east wheeling locations?

    Saw your email, I'll reply separately. But best bets are VT. Western MA only has 1-2 publicly accessible trails and they are fairly extreme. Take a look at the Vermont Overland site. VT has had legislation in place for a while now making recognized Class 4 roads legal byways for vehicle...

    Non-LR4 Land Rover OEM wheel options

    Full Fat Range Rover, they will fit with spacing. That is what I run with mud terrains.

    Awning

    I don't see why not. You could easily fabricate a mount to sandwich the cross bar with an "L" to mount the awning to.

    Rust & the LR4

    My last beloved '04 Bonatti had this when I sold it. New owner (friend) is undertaking the frame swap now. Not for the faint of heart. My guess is that if someone develops a frame swap option down the road for the LR3, it will be much faster than the D2. All speculation on my part, but I'd...

    Rust & the LR4

    No more an issue than any other modern car. Galvanized steel is used in a handful of cars for things like doors. Nobody is producing a car with a out-of-factory galvanized frame. So I would not suspect rust to be an issue on an LR4 until/after the 4-5 year mark in a salty location. If you...

    Tire Compressor location suggestions?

    And yes, in the first pic, that is snow in the window, covering the window fully. In fact the snow goes above the eaves of my garage now. Crazy.

    Tire Compressor location suggestions?

    Sorry Chris, just noticed this. I used a Kenwood TM-D710G mostly for the APRS capability. I have an older Icom in my d90 but really liked this Kenwood setup. The pics I took tonight are a bit dark. But, you can remote mount the head unit by trimming a very small amount of metal from the head...

    Terrifying brake pads consumption!!

    I'm at 30k miles and 2.5 years with the original pads/rotors. I don't drive especially easy, have about 1K lbs of extra accessories on the truck and live in the suburbs of Boston and drive in traffic and highway.

    Off-road navigation app recommendations?

    Trans Am is mostly moto crossed so you will need to do what Tom Collins did and translate the moto directions for those portions of the trail into maps/GPS. Gaia, PDF Maps, Motion X GPS, are all good iOS here-I-am map apps, but you need the directionals. I have yet to see an app for that.

    LR4 Fuel Leaking

    Any chance you have mice? They are known to chew into the pipe/insulation exiting the tank top.

    "Service Required" message

    It is a general reminder. Is your 9KM based in actual service?

    Special programs system fault

    TPS usually causes bigger issues like engine shut down at speed. Have not seen that in the LR4 but happened in my prior D2 and LR3.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Did you end up disabling your front sensors? If I recall, the front and rear are options through the GAP. I would need to check.

    Awesome, thank you!

    PN for matte black arch flares?

    Does anyone have PN's for the matte black arch flares offered ROW? I want to get a set to swap for extended trip to reduce the wear on my painted set.

    2014/15 bumper guard

    That stinks. My GUESS is that LR no longer makes those accessories because in the EU, there is heavy legislation on such things and pedestrian strikes. Even in Switzerland last year, my father was forced by new laws to remove his bumper guard on his 2000 G-wagon. They are crazy about pedestrians...

    compressor suggestion

    Less hardcore, more "I don't want to be that guy holding up the group as we head to another trail or into town for beer". In the NE, we usually run around 18-15 psi.

    compressor suggestion

    The problem with something smaller is the lower volume and longer time to air-up. So depends how low you take your tire pressure. If you are going to rarely use one, I'd suggest getting a power tank setup instead.

    Tire Compressor location suggestions?

    I have an odyssey in that 2nd battery tray and it is full. Did some under the seat investigation today. Going to pull apart the rear cargo trim this weekend and see what I can free up. It is a pretty slim setup so I'm hopeful I can find the spot for it. I use an extremeaire compressor in my...
