    Sway control for a 16ft travel trailer 2012 LR4

    Any brake controller works, you just need the correct harness to make it plug in easily. Ours (mine and the original poster - 2012 LR4 - not sure about every other year) is simply the "Ford" plug. For an easy reference you can look up a 2005 F150 and it's the same harness. I use an older...

    This is what I tow with mine.

    Sway control for a 16ft travel trailer 2012 LR4

    It is built in to your stability control. Nothing to update or install, we all have it. This was finally confirmed to me by a tech representative from Land Rover NA after me having to be a real pesky asshole to my dealer for an extended period of time. You're right, it's shocking how little a...

    Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler

    Same here. Bought my LR4 from a Mercedes dealer in Tulsa sight-unseen. The options were exactly as I wanted (which was tough to find - specifically HD, plus white with tan interior instead of black like most of them) so it justified the $750 to ship it here to GA. I had it three days after my...

    The new setup. Why you hanging us out like this? LOL.

    Towing for the first time, a U-Haul trailer.

    You can tow just fine without setting that up. In fact, even if you have the towing package you don't necessarily have the features mentioned in that video - you have to have the surround camera system for that, and all it does is try to help you back the trailer by making the lines on your...

    Gotcha - I was just wondering if there was something I wasn't getting or wasn't aware of. Thanks.

    20 inch mud terrain success

    I can speak to the KO2 being a good tire on other vehicles, so I don't think you'll be disappointed by any means. I've run them on three trucks and was very pleased. Two out of those three had less noise deadening and such than the lurf, and one was maybe even - all worked great. Plus, even...

    AIR SHOCKS REPLACEMENT

    Every job is DIY if it's the right Y. Just depends on what level of experience you have and such. It isn't really difficult at all, but it requires some tools that some folks may not have. Fairly large sockets and wrenches, breaker bar or impact wrench, floor jack, stuff like that - if you've...

    20 inch mud terrain success

    Gotcha - both can do some, but combining the two can do more than either can do on their own without pissing the computer off. Makes sense. I didn't know the tolerance for either could make the computer mad, but it stands to reason. I was more curious about him asking if one or the other as if...

    20 inch mud terrain success

    Just as a sidebar, why did you ask this? What I mean is, what were you trying to differentiate by the answer? They're the same thing in reality, aren't they? Rods just trick the sensors into reading a lower value mechanically, where the stuff like IIDTool tells the computer to change the...

    Transmission Fault on the freeway

    Ouch. Good luck.

    Android integrated with factory screen

    That's my gut take, too. I'd love it if that weren't true, but I've been playing on forums for enough years that the symptoms look mighty familiar. That's a shame. I still wouldn't have spent $1k+ on it, but I know a lot of you guys would have.

    Driver's Side Rear Cargo Compartment...

    Google, bruh -- the hitch storage stuff is an optional accessory. http://www.britishpartsofutah.com/Range-Rover-Sport-LR3-LR4-Tow-Hitch-LR020002-p/rc20002.htm -- that's too much money for me to pay for a foam block, so I keep mine wrapped in an old towel in the little cubby with a door just...

    LR4 Parking brake manual release

    Mine gets stuck if I park it after driving through water (like hard rain on the way home) and let it sit for a few days. I assume it's the parking shoes getting rusted in place and the electric motor not being strong enough to pull them away. I'll try the manual release next time to disconnect...

    One touch windows

    Roll the window all the way up, and hold the switch up (in the clicked-up "auto" position) for thirty seconds. That recalibrates it on my LR4 and my wife's RRS, maybe it will work on the big RR as well.

    Android integrated with factory screen

    I I gotcha - perfect answer, thanks for taking the time. The fact that you connect the audio from the android system via bt actually answers my main curiosity from a technical standpoint. Thanks again.

    Android integrated with factory screen

    I'm curious how this behaves in relation to the rest of the factory stuff in real time - when you switch over to your Android device interface does everything else go away? I'm assuming that's the case. Specific examples - with a factory system that has nav I can be driving along with my music...

    AC control knobs getting sticky.

    I think it might be caused by lotion or certain soaps. My wife's RRS and XK before it had the same problem, my LR4 with the same knobs and switches doesn't.

    Hold my beer...LR4 gets stuck, goes viral

    That's one of the best things I've ever read on this little forum.

    LR4 19 inch wheels to 20 inch wheels and tires

    I'll bet you'd easily sell the 19" set if you did them one at a time. Lots of us want a full size spare.

    Spare 19" rim?

    I got a replacement 20" for the wife's RRS when she broke hers from this ebay store -- http://www.ebay.com/usr/getallparts?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2754 It's a refurb, but the finish is a dead perfect match and everything about the wheel looks great. Great price, immediate shipping, very...

    Question about the factory hitch reciever

    I have to shove mine into place pretty fast and firm, but then the lock pin jumps out and all is well. A bit of brute force is pretty common with towing equipment of all kinds. We're making connections that have to handle thousands of pounds, so sometimes those parts are a bit bulky and brutish...

    Trailer Wiring

    The brake controller is honestly a cake walk - like I said, it just plugs right in. You just need a Tekonsha controller and 3035-P adapter so it will plug straight into the plug already under your dash. You don't even have to mount it, actually -- the little plastic valence down below your knees...
