    How (and why) to disable passive entry

    LOL, frankly it does... Where I live has been listed multiple times as the safest place in the country. Of the 300 metropolitan areas in the US of 100,000 people or more, statistically mine has the least crime/murder/theft/probably even littering. Combine that with the gun-loving state that it...

    How (and why) to disable passive entry

    Nope... Keyless entry all day every day.

    Custom Bull Bar in USA

    Uhhh... what? Was this an old BMW or a new one? Like, were they out of their mind? I keep an ARB recovery strap and Gator rope shackles in my LR4 and have helped bunches of people. Just helped a girl in a Tacoma in a really bad spot last week. She had gone over an 6 ft plowed snow berm on curvy...

    Custom Bull Bar in USA

    Yep, parking sensors, headlight washer jets and option for mounting cameras and not just clipping them. I’ll have to look into the Tactical Rover option, if it is the one I am thinking of, I wasn’t a fan...

    Custom Bull Bar in USA

    Here is what I will be buying after my warranty is up in a couple years. https://www.roverparts.com/Parts/3432220 I echo Ryan’s sentiment. What you are looking at there is purely decorative and serves no actual purpose. Save the pennies and get an actual bull bar, not a bolted on piece of...

    Point me to some Black 18” or 20” rims for LR4

    I've got 5 mint 20" black pack wheels/tires/tpms/centercaps/lugnuts sitting in my basement. Not sure I would ever sell them though. Bought Compos and never looked back. The extra tire meat makes this vehicle look like it was meant to look. Loved the design and finish of the OEM black 20's but I...

    Rooftop Step via door latch stocking stuffer...

    A co-worker sent me a link and I ordered it on a whim/impulse buy. I have not received it, but if you look on the site, it says to only use it on "U" shaped door latches. Soooo, not what we have. especially with the plastic the extends around it. I am way too afraid to use it.

    Will our LR4's be desirable in 10 - 15 years, or are they just another modern day LR?

    Yeeeeup. Try finding a SCV6 CPO with HD package right now. There are 2 available in the whole country right now. HD pack with LUX or Landmark? 1... HD/LUX/Black-pack... Forget about it.

    Steering Wheel warranty replacement... No Parts in US/UK!

    Well, after picking up my LR4, the dealer said the Land Rover is literally making me a made-to-order steering wheel since there is no supply on earth. He said they will prolly do a run of 5-10 to keep some in stock. Seems normally a piece in the chain breaks or shorts out not the wheel itself...

    Steering Wheel warranty replacement... No Parts in US/UK!

    Well, my heated steering wheel stopped working. After being at the dealer for 5 days, they have determined there is a short and I need a whole new steering wheel. Score 1 for being CPO, no charge... Buuuuut, my dealer can't find one in the entire US or UK. Really?!!? He said it may take a...

    How many miles on your LR4?

    Gonna hit 40k on my 15 LR4 LUX with HD here soon. Makes me sad, but plenty of those miles have been off-road which makes me happy. Just ordered a prospeed rack/ladder and accessories. Both worried and excited about how they will look in person. I feel like the car right now with my compos and...

    DRL 2015 LR4 HSE

    I don't understand the logic. Sorry to be of no help, but I love the way the 14-16 DRLs look. Keep the car looking new-ish/modern enough while still having the lovely boxy LR look of old. I don't think law enforcement see a 3 ton box of an SUV with Rover DRLs and think, "Oh, I better pull that...

    Easy way to spot HD package on '14 - '16 LR4, but how about other years/models

    Took me months to find a clean, low mileage CPO LR4 with LUX or landmark and the HD package with blackpack. Ended up finding one on a work trip, canceling my flight home and driving 1600 miles back home.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Ditto. Wouldn’t hate doing this in a few years when my warranty is up.

    Now I know where the Land Rover / Range Rover confusion comes from

    Yep... I haven't come up with a true, simple example of how to explain the relationship to novices. Depending on the situation, person or time allowed for the conversation; when someone says nice "Range Rover," I either smile and say thanks or try and explain. Ford/Lincoln, GM/Caddy isn't an...

    Trade in *mint* 2015 CPO for higher mileage 2014 ?

    So Land Rover is making $15k-$20k profit on the CPO LR4s they are selling? Seems pretty high for the industry standard in the used car market. If you are correct, then that is depressing, and definitely not even worth my time stopping by the dealer.

    Trade in *mint* 2015 CPO for higher mileage 2014 ?

    Some additional background: I may be widely over-estimating the value of my current vehicle, and have not yet taken it in to see what they would offer. I have however looked at every CPO LR4 for sale across the country. The 15s and 16s with my same options are listed from 59k-68k. Try finding...

    Trade in *mint* 2015 CPO for higher mileage 2014 ?

    Well, the color would just be a bonus. The real reason would be to spend $10k(or maybe more) and then no longer have a car payment. Instead of continuing to pay off the $36k I have left on it. I don't have a ton of incentive to pay it off early(besides getting rid of the payment), since my...

    Trade in *mint* 2015 CPO for higher mileage 2014 ?

    Was the 2015 CPO when you bought it? How many miles? Dang I wish my dealer wasn't 70 miles away... would be an easier decision to at least go talk to them tomorrow.

    Trade in *mint* 2015 CPO for higher mileage 2014 ?

    I have a mint (inside and out... like inside is insanely perfect, the leather is brand new and matte still) CPO white 2015 LR4 HSE LUX/HD package/blackpack/Towing with 35k miles and 4 years left on the warranty. I also have 3.5 years left on a $800 a month payment which is 1.8% APR... Just...

    Intelligent Start/Stop battery

    I just got mine replaced by the dealer under warranty on my 15. They actually ended up replacing both batteries because the system wouldn't work properly without it. Come to think of it, it only really worked for a day and the engine hasn't shut off since... May be the weather? There has been...

    2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?

    Have the 2014-16 LEDs already on my MY15 already and love the way the look in DRL mode. Keeps the truck modern enough and and close enough to the Rang Rover series to look related. Problem is... US spec forces the amber corner in the headlight. Seeing all the UK and European spec'd headlights...

    What's with JLR?/Defender rant

    So, when I decided to purchase a new vehicle I wanted something that could go-off road and tow. Started looking at the F-150 Raptor (wouldn't fit in my garage) looked at Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, but for near $50k new and a 3,600 lb towing capacity and the refinement of a plastic lego brick, I...
