    Are these OEM or > Quality Brakes?

    What wheels are you using with the Brembos? I'm @27k miles and maybe the pads just need replacing, but stopping power leaves something to be desired. Can the brembo calipers be used with the stock rotors? And does your setup make a noticeable difference?

    Thanks guys. Island 4x4 it is then.

    IID Tool updated current sites?

    @mbw and @crash1121 When you ordered from Island 4x4, how long did it take for you to receive your IIDtool? They still have the best price by far. Lucky8 wants more than GAP themselves still. Did it travel domestically via USPS or UPS? (My door card LEDs from the UK took forever to make it...

    Stock Wheels: Keep or Sell?

    Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one with enough wheels to match a semi... I can't blame any of mine on an S.O. or their vehicle though... just wanted a refined off-roader and a fast, sporty sedan and had no one to tell me not to. To even make it worth my while, I'd want to get over $2k for...

    LR4 Interior LED Lights

    Thanks. After arriving in LA customs Sunday, it looks like they just arrived at USPS sorting in LA within the last hour. That feels like progress finally. If I'm lucky, I'll see them Monday or Tuesday. I'm assuming they will be the solution I am looking for, but will report back here either way.

    Stock Wheels: Keep or Sell?

    Yeah, considering the cost new and the expense in shipping the Compos over here, a used set on this side of the pond would be convenient and cheap(comparably...) I'm guessing trying to sell the 20's on forums where the majority of the members have the goal of off-roading, might be a lost...

    Stock Wheels: Keep or Sell?

    I recently bought and mounted 5 Compomotive PD1881s and BFG KO2s (and new TPMS). I removed my 5 immaculate stock wheels and tires from my black pack MY15 LR4. The wheels are essentially bloody perfect and the tires only have 3k miles on them. My internal debate is whether to keep or sell...

    LR4 Interior LED Lights

    I got these: http://www.powerfuluk.com/vehicles/land-rover/discovery-4/interior/land-rover-discovery-3-4-led-door-courtesy-light-assembly-pair.html Just the 2 replacement units for the front as all my other cheap LEDs are working great.

    @ROVERNW How long did it take your LED units to arrive? Mine have been stuck in customs for 5 days now...

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    Thanks @umbertob ! I will have to give those lug nuts a shot.

    Lessons from a dead battery and where you hang your keys

    Seemed fishy to me as well, but I did not challenge him. With it being winter, they key mostly stays in one of my coats so it hasn't been an issue. Usually during the summer I have left the key to my Infiniti in the car while it is garaged. Now I am gonna be paranoid about ruining the...

    Lessons from a dead battery and where you hang your keys

    My salesmen told me not to keep my key(s) in the car or it would drain the battery as the car would keep checking for its presence if it thought it was there...

    Velar?

    I agree. That angle looks pretty dang good. The first two shots on that video from the quarter view made the roofline look pretty weird to me... The way the last glass panel curves down where it meets the roof looks a little soft or lumpy. That full side view though...

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    Thanks! Yep, trying to decide between pasti-dip, covers or total replacement for the lug nuts.

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    I honestly wish the satin black was a darker black. In the right light they look almost grey. Wish they matched the stock black rims, intake, grill and lettering...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    Well, after looking in the owners manual, it seems ~ 32° is the trigger for the auto start/stop. It has been warmer than that if not by much. I assume now that mine isn't working, but with 5 years left on my warranty I have no desire to fix it right now... Over to that thread I suppose.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    Ha. Perhaps. Yep, nothing more annoying than a window that doesn't roll all the way down. Can't believe anyone at LR signed off on that. My LR4 also hasn't seen a temp above 45 degrees since I bought it, so can't fully judge on the start/stop feature yet...

    Source for TPMS sensors...Black Compos on a 2016 LR4

    There was nothing done by my install guy to reset or register the new TPMS. I do not get any alerts about the spare. Everything just worked. YMMV

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    I've had my LR4 about 2 months now and am loving it. I ended up getting Compomotives and KO2s a little quicker than I anticipated so I could be sure to test them in snow this season. Greg @Johnson Rods provided excellent personal service and care with quick shipping on the wheels. Now I...

    Source for TPMS sensors...Black Compos on a 2016 LR4

    Well, I can confirm that the TPMS sensors from tire rack ($55) are working well on my MY15 LR4. I put 5 on all 5 of my new compos with 265/60 KO2s. PSI readings are accurate on the systems-check in the menu. We shall see how they hold up...

    Lol, so the button to close the liftgate is less of a luxury and more of a necessity for anyone under 6'4" it would seem...

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    55 psi it is. Now I just have to cross my fingers that my flight doesn't get too delayed and I will have everything mounted up later today. A little more excited than I probably should be.

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    Well, thanks @wlvrn I guess I'll go higher than originally thought... Anyone know how many ft-lbs of torque I should use on the Compos? I'm guessing around 105?

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    Getting those tires mounting to compos on Friday. Thanks for doing the legwork! But I agree... 55 all the way around seems awfully high as well as strange that F and R are not different. May go with 52R and 48F... Let me know what you end up doing.
