    HD vs non-HD package LR4

    I feel really dumb asking this....but ill throw myself out to the wolves anyway. I am confident my MY11 LR4 does not have the HD package, but i know I have the "hi / low" switch to the bottom right of the terrain control knob. This thread keeps referencing the 2 spd transfer case is only in the...

    Battery Low Start Vehicle Message

    the plug does look rough, but is it salvageable? clean it, use a pick to realign the pins, etc. if it cant be reused, start with any of the numbers that are on the plug. google may turn up a result. It doesn't look like just a wiring repair, rather someone has already replaced that harness plug...

    Battery Low Start Vehicle Message

    Could be bad battery. When a load(starting) is put on the battery, the voltage drop may be too much. The only way to know is by testing voltage as the car is starting.

    Apparently my LR4 is really upset about it's upcoming roommate

    Wow. Maybe I was on borrowed time with mine. 2x the age and it had an oil bath in its life.

    Apparently my LR4 is really upset about it's upcoming roommate

    No signs of mine failing, until it was too late. I checked for any codes about 1 month prior (just for "fun") using IID tool, and nothing came up. It was original, 145k, and had an oil leak dripping onto it about 5 months ago, which was fixed after about 1 week of noticing the issue. for the...

    Bunch of error codes. Alternator?

    Im assuming its my alternator. currently waiting on a new one to be delivered (delayed until Friday) i had an oil leak months ago that dripped on the alternator, combine that with 145k on the clock, i wouldn't be surprised if its time had come. i will add though, the regulator wire harness plug...

    Looking to purchase - 2012 - LR4 - Advice

    6 owners is alot. and weird that it had 2 owners in 2 years. The carfax records dont indicate alot of services during those 2 years, but i cant help but feel people are trying to dump that car because of an issue that cant be or too costly to fix. why else would you buy and sell a car within 1...

    Switching to LEDs for headlights 2010 lr4

    just some food for thought... my Audi with multi-projector LED headlights is not as good as my wifes Mercedes with single projector LED headlights. the Mercedes throws light farther forward adn ot the sides, and has a sharper, flat cutoff. comparing either of these to the the LR4...

    Switching to LEDs for headlights 2010 lr4

    i thought about this on my 2011 with HID headlights (non-adaptive). The first hurdle i ran into was most LED conversion kits are made to go from halogen -> LED. even if i could locate a HID to LED conversion, I was very concerned how the LR4s finicky electrical system would react. I'm sure...

    Bunch of error codes. Alternator?

    Yes,, luckily I was soo close to home. And yes, restricted performance was one of the messages. It was shifting terrible and riding out gears, so I'm not sure if performance was actually restricted though. I drove slow and easy since it wasn't driving correct.

    Bunch of error codes. Alternator?

    Jumped the car. Instantly get charging system errors. Within 30 seconds I end up with similar random system errors as the first post, and the dash shuts off. Battery wiring is snug and doesn't look like any visible shorts. While running I'm getting about 8v from the battery. For the $350...

    Bunch of error codes. Alternator?

    Kind of, for 2 minutes. It was 12:30 am and 25 degrees. Ill look again today, try to jump it and check voltages with a multimeter. Hopping I can get it started to get into the garage. Alternator is arrive Monday or Tuesday ordered with wishful thinking that the fix will be just to change it...

    Bunch of error codes. Alternator?

    2011 LR4, 145K miles. Driving home tonight I got a charging system fault error. No big deal, I was half mile from my house. Within that half mile...transmission, suspension, abs, parking brake...pretty much any fault that could come up, did. When I got home I noticed I had no reverse or brake...

    2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle

    the liquid coming out of your tailpipe could be water. 100% normal. Its more noticeable in winter as exhaust gases cool faster and condense. has the car been overheated? The crossover pipes don't directly cause blown head gasket. its the lack of coolant and overheating that causes head gasket...

    Coolant Level Question

    Have you actually looked at the truck to try and diagnose? a leak or low coolant should take all of 10 minutes to determine. If its neither of these, could be a sensor.

    DIY water pump and crossover pipe Video.

    I used dexcool fluid. I think this is a very debated topic. Whatever you choose, dont mix dexcool and green/yellow (standard) fluid.

    Another LR4 Saved from Coolant Death

    I only see the rear, #12. There is a "large" diameter pipe between what arrows 3 and 4 point to; the pipe just ends at the top.. where it ends is where the front crossover begins. what is it your trying to figure out? EDIT: post 8 in this thread clearly shows them both...

    Another LR4 Saved from Coolant Death

    If i have my LR4 long enough, ill be adding the water pump, front, and rear crossover to the "replace every 50k miles" maintenance. for me, that's about every 5 years and will be almost 200k on the odometer. For the estimated parts cost of $300 and a few hours of DIY, its not terrible. if one...

    Need help identifying this wire

    not sure about that wire. Junction (fuse) box p101 has a 3p micro relay (r132) and fuse #53 (20a) which control the cigarette lighters/outlets. i think fuse box P101 is the one under the glove box.

    Phone Mount For LR4?

    no idea how you deal with your phone map and built in navigation being oriented opposite of each other. would drive me nuts.

    Another LR4 Saved from Coolant Death

    not usually. the rear pipe is almost impossible to see at all. the front pipe is mostly covered by the intake manifold (or supercharger). its this portion of the pipe, that you cant see, that deteriorates from heat.
