2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
If anyone is interested. I bought my NGK plugs from this site. They were $96.12 for 8. Here is 15% off which would bring you to just over $80 or $10 a plug. Not bad- scott schmerge

2013 LR4 engine noise from back, not timing chain
I’m not fully convinced that all of them get the timing chain issues, but could be wrong. I will say, changing oil early and often seems to be the best remedy to keep the timing guides from wearing (anecdotally at least). I saw a report of a ‘10 with 300k and original guides not too long ago...- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
thats good news! I don’t have my fuel rail off yet on the drivers side so can’t quite see it but looks obstructed. That’s a relief- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
yeah, mine too...my quote was 1400. I’m only a couple of hours into the job and this is my first time doing it. No way it’s an 11 hour job. Although I’m getting a bit nervous about how I’m going to get cylinder 8 injector out without evacuating the AC (it’s right behind the two ac lines). if...- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
I had seen that in the other thread! Awesome and brilliant at the same time. Was thinking about doing that myself last night, but I’ve still got my intake manifold on and didn’t want to risk cracking it. If I can’t get anywhere, I’m going your route. This rail on drivers side is stuck! Before I...- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
good words! I’m a little more than 1/2 way through the job. Passenger side has plugs out, injectors removed and new injectors in place (did before removing plugs as to not get any debris inside the fuel system). I was actually really surprised at how smoothly it went on that side. on the...- scott schmerge

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
Yes. Agreed. Had already anticipated that I’ll give it an oil change. I’m gonna go ahead and do injectors and plugs and see where it gets me. Will report back. good point on plugs revealing if it’s bad fuel. Had not thought of that.- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
I do have a manual. Not sure it’s the same one- there’s not a ton about separating the fuel rail from the injectors. Hoping to avoid snapping anything- scott schmerge

2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
@TheDave, I’m about to embark on taking fuel rail off (I’ve got it broken down to there). Did you ever get around to doing a write up? Can’t seem to find one. @TheDave, @DonC, Any advice or lessons learned? I’m doing all eight injectors and plugs while in there. I have the passenger side...- scott schmerge

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
good thought. But would the HPFP cause ignition issue with fuel flooding the cats and coming out tailpipe? Feel like that would be a result of lost spark or stuck open injector. Definitely please correct me if I’m wrong.- scott schmerge

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
sorry, 2010 LR4 HSE LUX. I already have the passenger side pulled apart up to the fuel rail. It’s loosened and ready to come out while I wait for injectors to arrive (tomorrow). Slide hammer tool comes today. It’s not altogether that bad in the non supercharged 5.0. Also have plugs on order to...- scott schmerge

Supposedly some of the new defenders run 19” rims. Here’s to hoping Land Rover did/does some convincing with the manufacturers to put something tougher out.- scott schmerge

200,000 mile service advice
As a follow on question. If you have done your own injectors, how long should I anticipate the job taking? Book is 10 hours but I can’t see it taking more than 4-5. Biggest obstacle is access to them.- scott schmerge

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
Hey all, just had the same thing happen. Whole bank showing misfire. Injectors are original with 133k on them. New ones ordered along with slide tool. Anyone have any other insights or thoughts on causes? I’m 90% sure I’m on the right track. Just checking collective wisdom before I jump in.- scott schmerge

200,000 mile service advice
Just had my drivers side bank have random misfires on all four cylinders. Original injectors with 133k on them. Assuming it’s an injector stuck open. Strong fuel smell and smoking out tailpipe. Literally happened as I pulled on my street. Had injectors on my list as a next to do. Anyone have...- scott schmerge
