Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels
They must have added that size quite recently, I checked that tire a couple of years ago when it was time to replace my Nittos and ended up with another set of Terra Grappler G2s (E-load) instead - same size - which is actually a good enough tread for my type of use, 90% paved road. Therefore, I... -
2016 LR4 and Liftmaster garage + slide gate opener
That's the repeater you can get for just Shipping and Handling (about $7, although it may have gone up a couple of bucks I guess, since I ordered mine about 3/4 years ago) if you call the folks at Chamberlain / Liftmaster and ***** about their MyQ garage opener being incompatible with your LR4's... -
Sat Radio 1,2,3 Scrolling from steering wheel
They must have dumbed down the later model years, then. My 2013 works the same way, a long press of the MODE button cycles through SAT1, SAT2, and SAT3 bands (and tunes to the last station I was listening to on that band, whether it was a preset or not), then a short press of the forward /... -
LR4 Replacments...
Back when I was young... (until 3-4 years ago), I used to drop the Tactical fuel tank plate on the floor of my garage between off-roading trips and park the car right on top of it, it's about 100 lbs and I am sure it makes a little bit of a difference at stoplights and the fuel pump. Then again... -
LR4 Replacments...
We're twins! I hit 172K miles exactly yesterday (although mine is a 2013.) 200K miles will come a lot quicker for me than most of you out there - in about 11-12 months, give or take - and that's when I normally start shopping around for a replacement. Alas, I don't think a new Defender will be... -
2016 LR4 and Liftmaster garage + slide gate opener
Just FYI, the "other" car (I assume you are talking about the 17 Range Rover that you successfully programmed?) will still operate the MyQ opener, with or without a repeater installed for the LR4. -
2016 LR4 and Liftmaster garage + slide gate opener
I keep the original remote buried into my glove box for such a catastrophic event - a rainy day with a power blackout. ;) -
2016 LR4 and Liftmaster garage + slide gate opener
There have been reports from other owners of MY16s that they were not able to operate MyQ garage openers by Liftmaster / Chamberlain without a repeater. See this thread as an example: http://www.landroverworld.org/threads/liftmaster-garage-door-opener-suck.28858/ I guess Land Rover finally... -
Rear spare tire carrier
285/65/18? I doubt you'll be able to fit it, period. At 33" dia. IMHO it's just too large to stuff up there, even fully deflated. As a running wheel, it'll rub an awful lot as well, unless you plan on making room into the wheel wells. -
Hydraulic Jack Suggestions
I am afraid that's going to cost a fortune whenever it is launched in NA. Also, you'd have to get creative to use it with a stock LR4 with no steel bumpers or sliders. Otherwise I'd love to get one for Christmas and throw it in the back whenever I go off-road. It would probably work just fine... -
Hydraulic Jack Suggestions
Nice unit and plenty of lift, but if your LR4 is on the bump stops and you need to jack it up, you may not be able to slide those big "off-road" composite wheels under the chassis, never mind the extension. That seems like an ideal jack for lifted trucks, but I can think of some situations where... -
Hydraulic Jack Suggestions
My only concern is the maximum lift of that puppy, at just over 19" that may not quite be enough to get one (or two) wheels off the ground in a garage without some extra help (extension or wood block), especially if you are "wearing" oversized tires on your LR4. Otherwise, that looks good and... -
Hydraulic Jack Suggestions
If storage and portability are not an issue (it's bulky and pretty heavy), I recommend a cheapo model from Harbor Freight, it works great with the LR4 and it is less than $200. We use it in our warehouse for our cargo vans as well, and so far it's been very reliable... -
automatic locks not unlocking when put in park or turn off key
You access the menus with your steering wheel's round "OK" button (on the right side of the wheel), then navigate through it with the cursor controls around the button. -
automatic locks not unlocking when put in park or turn off key
Is "2-Stage Unlocking" checked in your Vehicle Set Up menu? Try unchecking it and see what happens. I honestly don't know - that's one of the first "features" I disabled in my 2013 LR4 as I always hated having to press the unlock button a second time (from outside the car) to unlock passenger... -
Programming a used remote for a 2014 LR4
Familiarize yourself on how to navigate the various menus and sub-menus of the tool using your steering wheel's cruise control buttons first. RTFM. :) IIDTool Main Menu > Service / Test > BCM Body Control > Add A Key Then, just follow the instructions that pop up on the TFT display, it only... -
Signs that LCAs need to be replaced
Atlantic British has sent me aftermarket / non-OEM parts before, even though their web site doesn't identify them as such. A little over a ago I snapped and broke a front sway bar link while wheeling locally, and ordered a replacement from them using the OEM part # for the link (LR014145). Their... -
New to me... is this normal?
Yes, that's fairly normal when the engine is cold - the colder, the louder (RPMs stay well above normal even while idling in your garage)... :) The noise is compounded by the EAS compressor, which often also runs for a minute or two in the morning. After a minute or two warming up, everything... -
LR4 Mileage Poll
Replaced with OEM shocks. The front RH air spring failed in a funny way - it would leak air all of a suddenin a catastrophic way - you could hear the hissing from inside the car - only under certain extended conditions, so you can imagine how much fun that was on a rocky trail and 40+ miles of... -
LR4 Mileage Poll
Just hit 168K miles. Replaced both front shocks last week - one of them failed while off-roading, but I knew I was living on borrowed time for a while (they were the original air springs.) Other than that, my 2013 LR4 has been nearly trouble free and I really don't know what I am going to do... -

IID tool and TPMS
As far as I know, you can only tell if it's NOT working on a 2013 or earlier (faults and TPMS icons will pop up if it senses a fault with the system, or if it detects a tire is low on air), so if you have enabled the system with IIDTool and don't get any faults, it should be up and running... -
IID tool and TPMS
Not if you have a 2013 or earlier. The TPMS works just fine on my LR4, but is only designed to warn me if a tire is low on air. There is no info screen where I can check current air pressure. I understand that feature was added in later model years (starting with 2014s, I believe), under the... -
Locking Nut Key kept in LR4?
No, I think it's only a dealer installed accessory (although it may very well come pre-installed as a dealer "perk" on some trims, like floor mats and the like.) -
Locking Nut Key kept in LR4?
Wise choice. Honestly, I have lived in L.A. - the undisputed, undefeated car theft capital of the civilized world - for over 30 years and never once have I met someone bitching about finding his/her SUV on a pile of bricks, wheels stolen. Maybe on a fancy sports car, but a LR4? Half the crooks...
