    Landy dealership or non Landy dealership?

    Also be aware that if you buy a previously CPO'd Rover from a non-Rover dealer the CPO warranty becomes void.

    2015 side step -- really a side impact safety feature?

    Agree, that is what I posted in another thread a few weeks back. The dealer had no explanation, although that isn't particularly surprising.

    2015 side step -- really a side impact safety feature?

    This is what they dealer gave me when we bought our 15. Seeing the pics is very helpful, but I still have a hard time understanding how this could possibly *positively* influence the safety of the car in a side impact.

    Landy dealership or non Landy dealership?

    Other ways to tell Lux and HD are to look for the seat memory controls on the drivers door (only Lux) and look for the full sized spare sticking down underneath the car. Still verify in the display that it has the locker.In '14s and '15s - if the right side of the buttons under the terrain...

    2015 Issues anyone else?

    One other one my dealer told me about was to look at the terminals on the extra battery that supports the start/stop functionality. The battery is under a cover on the driver's side back near the firewall. They found one of their customer's LR4 had a loose connection that was causing similar faults.

    brake job cost?

    They do brake well for their size and the 4 improved upon the 3 with larger rotors/pads. It is extremely frustrating how quickly they eat eat brakes, we tend to go through a set of pads at least every 15-18k miles (mix of city and highway.) Rotors can last about twice that long if you stay on...

    New LR4 Owner

    Not even sure where to start with all this nonsense... First, sales numbers dropped because of limited production capacity and JLR prioritized production of the new FF Range and Range Sport. Far more profitable to make the others, so makes financial sense to do so. For move evidence of strong...

    New LR4 Owner

    Welcome and congrats on the purchase. I think you did very well with 5% off MSRP.

    Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 Review

    They are excellent. Have not used on the LR4 but that is likely the tire I will use when I get a new set. In CO with AWD, it is a great all around winter tire with better wet weather performance as well. Won't do quite as well on ice but otherwise a great option.

    LR4 reliability - let's get better info

    2015 Lux Currently 1,200 miles Two trips for service in the first 500 miles, both related to interference from the cooler box wiring with the signaling from suspension, traction and stability control sensors. Issue remains unsolved but LR is aware of the problem and working on a permanent fix.

    2015 Engine Break-In Period?

    There is none. I asked my sales guy and the service manager and they both told me LR does not have a break in procedure or requirement for an early service. I still took it somewhat easy for the first ~1,200 miles in our '15 Lux and varied speed over longer trips. I still might spring for an...

    PSA for 2015 LR4 owners - eletrical issue

    It was cold, extremely cold but also happened when warm. As an owner of an LR3 I am unfortunately well aware of the brake light switch issue. This looks almost the same but is a different issue. Thanks for the suggestion though.

    Bushings and Lower Control Arm

    Consider yourself lucky if only two sets of brakes in 120k, that is amazing for any LR. On a separate note, any idea if they changed the bushings/control arms for the LR4 from the LR3 parts? I still have the originals on our LR3 with over 70k miles on it.

    PSA for 2015 LR4 owners - eletrical issue

    PSA for 2015 LR4 owners - electrical issue We got our '15 LR4 Lux right around the new year and almost immediately ran into an unknown issue. Periodically the car would show a string of warnings - HDC fault, stability control unavailable, emergency brake assist not available - which would...

    Tow Package Option

    My understanding is that you get the actual receiver that you can buy separately, full size spare, and possibly some wiring (although the latter may be there on every car.)

    side steps

    This is what my dealer showed me. Seems like the did something like mistakenly fitted them for the crash test, then would have had to done the test again if they weren't fitted as standard. Rubbish that they would help in the slightest with a side impact.

    2012 vs. 2015 LR4 HSE LUX

    I'll add my 2 cents worth. We've gone from an LR3 to a 15. Obviously a bigger jump than a V8 LR4, but I've driven those enough to be able to comment on the differences. Agree with the comments about how solid and refined our 15 feels. Extremely quiet, much less engine noise than a RRS with the...

    How to demo meridian Surround Soud

    When you start it up, hit the A/V button on the dash under the screen. Then insert the CD. If it doesn't automatically switch sources, use the functions on the left side of the screen to switch the source. In the audio settings, make sure it is set to Meridian Surround sound (was not on by...

    Meridian audio system

    We have the higher output Meridian system and I am not blown away. Not an audiophile either, but just don't see a huge improvement over the 380W system that I listened to. Admittedly I haven't spent much time with the lower end version but nothing about this one would lead me to say I would...

    Diesel, Coming to the US for the Green Oval!

    Probably next gen for sure, if there is a high enough take rate for the FF Range. Will be interesting to see what that crowd does, especially with a high spread between petrol and diesel right now.
