    Auto Radio Volume

    Sorry. but I have been told its not possible without replacing the radio. BTW - ME TOO on the radio volume. If the engineers wanted to be so cleaver, they should have integrated with the GPS to determine if you are with in AAA jurisdiction and let you run the battery 'dangerously' low. IF in...

    LR3 Tires

    ditto on the General At2's. This is my 2nd truck with them, but the offroad and snow capabilities may be over kill for your needs in San Diego. My wife says "they look like they could eat small children".

    replacing brakes

    Lots of $$$$$ Example: http://www.autoanything.com/brakes/61A2861A0A0A2599755.aspx Incase the link doesnt work - Brembos $4,500 for the front, $4k for the rears. New Pads every 30K miles seem pretty cheap now!

    So while scrolling through eBay listings...

    First post in the thread has a link to an ebay auction for one. Approx $1000 plus $200 shipping. I would love to find one already in the northeast if anyone knows or a new or used rack available. Christmas tree hunting seasons is coming and I need some thing to tie on to. ALSO - Im also...

    Google always knows, quick search....got it http://www.flickr.com/photos/lajitasrovers/3779693860/ Click on pic for BIGGER view. You can zoom in and see the BFG M/T Logos. Image zoomed and lightened up: Not sure on the size, but that sure looks like a tight fit. Over all...

    Reason for cupped tires?

    Its the negative camber that causes softer rubber tires to cup. Typically the greater camber settings in the rear axle cause it. Look from behind and you will see the tops of the wheels tipped in. I honestly think you waited too long to swap front to rear tires, and they were possibly already...

    How are you getting 20mpg?

    Maybe different fuel too. Some states use more ethonol. E10 has 3.2% less energy per gallon. YMMV In my last Audi, I had access to the fuel trim tables via a VAG laptop cable (boy do I miss that). I could see how close to lambda air-fuel ratio we were and adjust the MAF to get better MPG and...

    Yes, every model year is effected. If the problem is simply cosmetic is widely debated.

    Towing

    I have not towed my 23' Boat further than 45 miles yet, so I cant say exactly what the mileage is. Unladen, the 'dream meter' typically shows 18mpg. With the boat it reads 16mpg. Both of these readings are at 65mph. I run 89oct 100% of time, no problems. YMMV. BTW - The Commander is...

    Solution for low aux input level? (iPod)

    Engine Oil

    Apples and oranges, but I believe the LR4s go 15K miles on synthetic. Its all a crap shoot unless you test your oil and see what state it is in when it comes out. I had these guys (http://www.blackstone-labs.com) run an analysis on my TT oil a couple times. I used synth in that for added turbo...

    60k Service Costs/worth??

    I was quoted $28 just for that item today. I suspect all those prices are equally deflated from the stealership rates.

    Transfer Case & Differential Fluid Specification

    Oil change is not too hard. 1 hour and one skinned knuckle. Nice and easy to put it in offroad suspension mode and not have to deal with lifting the truck. Some of the skid plates bolts were stuck. It definitely takes a 1/2" drive socket, breaker bar, or impact wrench to get some of the skid...

    Luxury package, sell fast?

    The heated windshield has always been bundled with seat heat and that is usually easier to spot in online AD pictures. Happy hunting!

    Help; Radio Worn Tires Keyless Entry Doesnt Work

    The tires is an unfortunate loss. I learned this lesson once myself and now always get an alignment with new tires. Its generally accepted that the dealer is the best equiped to perform alignments because of the computer required to lock the air suspension in tight tolerance mode. The Radio...
