2012 LR4 with Early AMK Compressor Failure
I'd assume Arnott would be the best bet, i've heard great reviews about them and they have pretty good DIY videos that will show you almost step by step directions. I'm going to try the conversion kit on eBay, ill post how it comes out. -
2012 LR4 with Early AMK Compressor Failure
you're fine to replace it with an "new style" AMK compressor. "new style" refers to the switch from hatchi to AMK compressors. im in the process of replacing my hatchi with an AMK and have to get the new compressor cover(and mounting bracket) only because I currently have a hatchi. eBay actually... -
Front diff making metal
haven't dove into it yet but seems like quite the task just to remove the diff from the car. ive never rebuilt one so unfortunately I think this would be a job for a shop. I haven't noticed the noise in a while( probably my mind blocking it out knowing its going to be an expensive repair) so I... -
Front of the engine oil leak
will do, weather is going to be crap here in Georgia Friday through Monday so im going to head back home to Florida(where all my tools are) im assuming you have to drain the engine oil to remove the pump. does anyone know for sure? ive only got 1k on this oil change and hate to waste $80 bucks... -
Front of the engine oil leak
no, I bought this in New York, never having an issue with rust I didn't ask for undercarriage photos....learned my lesson. its seen quite a few winters up there and I guess the previous owner didn't believe in rinsing. surprisingly I've never had a bolt or nut strip or snap. just wire brush the... -
No coolant flowing
you have to bleed the system.( using my LR 4 as example) throughout the engine bay on high spots of the coolant system(near the top of the radiator, metal section of line that runs onto the back of the engine) there are little purge valves. you have to purge the system in order to get it flowing... -
Front of the engine oil leak
Sorry should have done a little more digging before posting. That part is the vacuum pump. I’m pretty sure that’s the cause of the leak, has anyone ever replaced one before? Any help is greatly appreciated. -
Front of the engine oil leak
after hearing a noise from a pulley while idling I popped the hood to take a look, unfortunately what I found was the start of an oil leak. Just changed my oil maybe 3-4 weeks ago and it wasn’t there. It appears to be coming from a weird engine mounted accessory or.....the timing chain cover(... -
Front brakes seizing (again)
I think its got to deal with the salt they put on the roads. I live in Georgia but bought my LR 4 from a dealer in NY. everything underneath is rusted so the first time I had brake issues I just assumed it was from the salt(expecting it to be fixed by a good cleaning) maybe replacing the... -
Front brakes seizing (again)
Well my dreams of switching to brembo brakes were crushed when I started pricing everything out( plus I’ve got 19”rims so I’d have to move to 20”) guess I’ll add this to the “someday” list and live with the brake shake♂️ -
Front brakes seizing (again)
I’ve got the same issue with the front right caliper sticking. I’ve cleaned and greased them multiple times, rebuilt them and put new rotors on....wasted money, caliper locked again at some point and warped the rotor. My old Range Rover had brembo calipers and I never had a single issue with... -
Showoff Your LR4
do you have any interior pictures? interested in that dash mod -
Front diff making metal
oh yeah didn't want to go that in-depth. transmission shifts smooth every time just instead of it shifting at 1500rpm( when I bought it) it shifts at around 2000 which is just from some poor driving habits im trying to change(heavy foot, use to my old supercharged L322 I had before this)thanks... -
Front diff making metal
great! thanks for the advice, I guess ill just keep an eye on it and see how it progresses. yeah its been a crazy past 8 months, multiple trips to Boston, 8 trips to North Carolina....you should see my fuel bill:'( but not once have I questioned its reliability, its honestly a great car, and... -
Front diff making metal
they were thin flakes(kind of like fish scales) ive got 170,000 now. bought it 8 months ago with 130,000 the records said the fluid was changed at around 75k I think but thats it -
Front diff making metal
I have been trying to trace down a strange vibration/low rumble noise I started hearing on my last trip from palm beach to Georgia. it sounds and felt like the start of a wheel bearing going out( which made sense because the passenger side had blown out less than a month ago and I had to replace... -
"Only Normal Height Available" display
oh thats great! my dealership was charging almost $400.00 for the update so it makes more sense to spend an extra 100 and get the tool. ill look into the rebuild kits, never heard of them before. I saw a guy on youtube that used a can of "fix-a-flat" to "fix" his leaking air suspension.... so at... -
"Only Normal Height Available" display
yeah I'm looking at getting the iiD tool but that may have to wait till I finish school and get another job. im considering just getting a new hitachi compressor instead of the AMK conversion. my current one has lasted 177K miles, that's pretty dang good in my book. however 1Aauto sells a kit, 1... -
difference between series III and 109 ?
Don’t know if this is the right forum to ask but I’ve got the opportunity to buy a 1974 series 3 Land Rover in pretty good condition( runs and drives) it’s been converted to 4x4 but other than that it’s all original. It’s a Belgian military impoart vehicle. What are some things I should look for... -
"Only Normal Height Available" display
After washing my 2011 LR4 it popped up with the “only normal height available” I shut the car off then back on and it seemed to work fine( no error messages) but the compressor was running then it’s like it faded and shut off( as if the power going to it was slowly getting less and less till it... -
LR4 Suspension Adjustments with Added Weight
does anyone else think the ass end of my LR 4 is higher than others? idk if my OCD is just retarded or if im use to my Range Rover I had before this which sat at a totally different attitude but I really feel like the back sits abnormally higher than the front compared to other LR 4's I've seen -
Whine while accelerating/decelerating
let us know what you find out im about 55%...yes 55% sure mine is either alternator or the pulley to the left of it. although id live to change out the water pump too for peace of mind. -
LR4 tyre change
On my 06 Range Rover full sized I popped a tire while in the mountains and all I had was the full size spare that was 255 50 r 20 instead of the tires that were on the car 275 65 r20. Drove it 4 hours back to town and didn’t have any issues. The whole time Paranoid about overheating or burning...
