2013 LR4 5.0L Cold start knocking noise
When the engine is off, are you able to: (1) move the fan easily with your hand and freewheel it around... or... (2) is it locked into place and won't move? Either of these are 2 solid symptoms of a bad fan clutch. SkyTree -
Big LR4 issue, cut losses and sell vs fix?

Thanks for clearing that up, @joey. Looking forward to reaching 50! SkyTree Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk -
Dash Clock minus 30
A couple months back, I replaced the cracked analog clock "glass" (plastic) in our LR4, and had a similar issue with our clock as well. I wanted to replace the cracked clock face, but didn't want to remove the whole panel, and you can't take the clock itself out without removing the panel as... -
Classifieds Question...
Thanks for the reply, @rolledover. I'd initially wondered if a requirement like that might be the case, but then I saw this post saying one needs an additional account. A threshold number of posts certainly makes more sense to me. I'll just have to get to 50 and see how it goes then.:pcguru... -
Classifieds Question...
Hi there, I feel a bit sheepish asking this and can't seem to find an answer via search and am not even really sure where to post this question, so feel free to move it as needed. When I go to the Classifieds section and look at any Buying/Selling items I get a "You have insufficient... -
Can you identify this sound? (Video)
Thanks for the info, @sonicpix. I probably checked out the same video you are referring to, haha, as I was preparing to do the replacement myself. Turns out, our warranty covers this since it's both Electrical and Mechanical (which are both covered), so I ended up just taking it to our... -
BD Squadron fog lights
Depends on the season/temp, of course, but SoCal fog areas tend to be... (1) ...in passages between areas with different temps/altitudes (Ex: Cajon Pass in fall/winter often has heavy fog between the cold, high elevation High Desert and temperate, lower elevation Inland Empire). When these... -
Johnson Rods vs Proud Rhino
Thanks for sharing, Don. Could have sworn I read that their new, updated version rods are a different metal and coating process, but I'm not certain. Regardless, this is a good past experience to file away for those considering rods. I lean toward the electronic "lift" method via IID and don't... -
Johnson Rods vs Proud Rhino
Could you elaborate on this more, Don? I can't seem to find any reference to what happened. SkyTree -
Can you identify this sound? (Video)
Update: Yesterday, the steering wheel's Horn, Cruise, and Infotainment control buttons stopped working, and the Airbag light came on, confirming that it's 99.9% the Clock Spring causing both the clicking noise and coincident electrical problems. Thanks for having a listen to the video clip, as... -
Windshield Cowl Grille Replacement
Be happy that your cowl had a nice peaceful passing. Ours endured a violent death at the hands of a tech (from a large unnamed windshield repair/replacement company) who thought the best way to get the cowl seal out of the way was to cut it off with box cutters. Good grief. lol (No, they didn't... -
Hello from a new LR4 owner in San Diego, Ca
Such a good post, Troy! This should be stickied somewhere with a title like: "So you've just bought your first LR4..." [emoji106] Good stuff, mate.[emoji1690] Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk- SkyTree

18" Wheels w/o modifications
Are you planning to do any reversible mods like Lift Rods/LLAMS/GAP Tool or SYA Extensions? (Note: the SYAs don't give you lift, but they give you 2" extended bump stops in case you blow an air strut out on the trail and bottom out, so that even if you're running larger tires, you can still get... -
Hello from a new LR4 owner in San Diego, Ca
Welcome! I think you're going to enjoy your LR4 a whole lot more than your previous Range Rover. The LR4 is one of the best vehicles that Land Rover ever made, and is fast becoming a modern classic...(particularly the LR4s outfitted with the 5.0L V8 engine, imo). Enjoy going...

Let's try to get the facts down on tensioner issues
Kinda late to the party, but I'll add our numbers... 2011 LR4 HSE Lux --- Santorini Black, Almond/Arabica 5.0L V8 --- we limited our LR4 search to only 2010-13 model years purely to get this fantastic engine 72,682 miles Timing chain is tight as a drum & very clean. Previous Oil Change... -
Can you identify this sound? (Video)
Very helpful info, Paul! My hunch is clock spring also. The temp has ranged consistently from 105-120° here for the past 5 days or so (not sure if that has anything to do with it). Maybe that accelerated the clock spring's demise? Our LR4 hasn't had any steering or alignment issues of any... -
Can you identify this sound? (Video)
Hey Jimmy, I can feel it clicking, but it's not a deep in the column feeling like a rumble or shimmy/shake. It steers fine, but feels like there's piece of plastic behind the steering wheel that is being "clicked through" for lack of a better way of putting it. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk -
Gobi Roof Rack
For those in SoCal, there is a guy in Hesperia (High Desert area about an hour-ish outside of LA) that makes custom roof racks for Land Rovers, 4Runners, Land Cruisers, Jeeps, etc. He can powder coat them, if desired, as well. Very reasonable prices. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk -
18" Wheels w/o modifications
I called Black Rhino (aka, TSW) about this exact wheel 3 days ago with the same question, since their fitment search says the 18" inch Barstow will fit the LR4. According to them, you will need to shave the calipers to make an 18" Barstow fit, and the guy I spoke to said it probably shouldn't... -
Can you identify this sound? (Video)
My wife was coming home from work the other day, and according to her, the steering wheel started making this awful clicking/grinding plastic sound when making turns. I recorded a video of the sound, which can be viewed below. I'm familiar with the higher pitched wheez/whine rubbing sound... -
LR4 windshield replacement
You should read my post above about our experience with Safelite. Haha. Our experience is... Safelite is a good general windshield repair/replacement company, and I would imagine they do just fine on 90% of jobs they undertake. That being said, Land Rovers are not super common, general... -
LR4 windshield replacement
@Tapps33 nailed it in his post above. We replaced our windshield just after we purchased our LR4 a little while back, and the company (higher end, non-Landy dealership) that sold it to us had originally hired Safelite to replace the windshield/windscreen prior to the LR4 being listed for sale... -
Alarm sounding but sensors test okay...
We had the same issue with ours going off at odd times in the evening a little while back. Was a real mystery as the alarm hadn't had this issue before and no recent changes had been made to the truck. After thorough inspection of the available evidence, it was determined the culprit was the...
