    LR4 Front coolant outlet tube BS

    I called the shop and they said that they only have one pipe per repair bay for exhaust. They put a rag in cars with two exhaust pipes. They didn't have much to say about the proposed 10k Head Gasket diagnosis though.

    LR4 Front coolant outlet tube BS

    No signs of head gasket failure. The shop stated they observed bubbles they attributed to head gasket failure and that the engine started to overheat at idle. None of these symptoms have been reproducible. I drove the car around then all day in hot stop and go traffic. It's driving fine...

    LR4 Front coolant outlet tube BS

    Wouldn't burnt valves allow exhaust into oil? They were basinging Head Gasket Failure on exhaust pressurizing the coolant.

    LR4 Front coolant outlet tube BS

    Power was excellent. Have not looked at oil, but am planning to do a change today. I asked about signs of coolant getting in oil and the shop said no...?

    LR4 Front coolant outlet tube BS

    Okay... I was driving home while towing a 4500# trailer when I had a severe coolant leak at the top of Loveland Pass in Colorado. I had extensive overheating and low coolant warning. Pulled over as soon as safe and cooled down, added coolant, and continued driving down the pass. Coasting...

    Thumping when Reversing after car has been parked overnight

    Interesting. Will see if it changes with temp. Will also see what happens when I switch out my winter tires.

    Thumping when Reversing after car has been parked overnight

    Thumping/pulsating when Reversing after car has been parked. Coming from the rear. Sometimes continues at slow speeds when I go forward, but goes away once I hit about 8mph.

    LR4 Trailer Harness Auxiliary Troubleshooting

    Went back to the drawing board and learned that I needed to test both sides of the fuse. Turned out that it was the 15 amp fuse in space # 54. When I originally tested it with a multimeter I only tested one side and it was fine. I'll leave this up for anyone else that might learn from my...

    LR4 Trailer Harness Auxiliary Troubleshooting

    Had my RPOD- camper trailer hooked up to 2011 Lr4 and tried to close the slide out. All of a sudden all electrical in the RPOD stopped working. I didn't have the RPOD battery hooked up so it was getting all power from the LR4. Tested 7-pin on the LR4 and everything seems to be working except...

    2011 lr4 hd radio problem

    I've had my car for about a year now, and have also concluded that the radio is completely useless. HD doesn't turn on, and now I just started siriusXM to find out I can just seek through channels. Anyone have more luck with he HD Radio working? Makes no sense to me...

    255/55R19 Pictures! Duratrac vs. Geolandar A/T G015 vs. Terrain Contact A/T

    Was hoping this thread would produce more pictures of the Geo's. I decided against them and am going with the Duratrac's. The 255/55R19 Geo's are constructed with a tapered side which reduces the contact point of the tread with the ground. Still looks like a beefy tire All Terrain Tire though.

    255/55R19 Pictures! Duratrac vs. Geolandar A/T G015 vs. Terrain Contact A/T

    Thanks for everybody’s replies so far. It sounds like any of these tires would be a good choice, which makes it more about which one is gonna look best! I’d love to see a picture of the G015 on a LR4. It seems to be marketed as a pretty capable off-road tire with great on the road...

    255/55R19 Pictures! Duratrac vs. Geolandar A/T G015 vs. Terrain Contact A/T

    So, committed to stock 19" rims for my 2011 LR4 and have already read all the forums. My practical mind says I should get the Yokohama's and the kid in me wants the Duratrac's. I've more or less ruled out Zeon LTZ's because if I go that aggressive I'm going with the Duratracs. Most driving...

    LR 4 control arm question

    Just did the control arms on my car this summer and had a terrible experience with eurospare. The big bushing started leaking after two days on both sides. I'd go with Land Rover parts or try Meyle parts. My understanding is that Meyle use rubber only bushings and are not oil filled hydra...

    Anyone have info on the HD radio antenna. Where is it routed? How to remove radio without disabling it to inspect wires on the backside?

    DIY Oil Change for LR4

    So... I can't say I've read all 25 pages of posts, but I thought I'd give back to the forum by adding my .02c. I used M1EP with a Mahle Filter. My addition to the forum is that I also used a $15 12v pump I got off ebay to suck out the old oil. about 7.75 quarts came out and 8 quarts went back...

    2011 lr4 hd radio problem

    Bump. I’m having the same problem with my 2011 LR4. A month ago I got it to turn on but it had pretty inconsistent reception. I’m thinking that there must be a loose antenna wire somewhere. Does anybody know where there are potential loose connections for an HD radio antenna? I live in Denver...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    Update #2 for the benefit of this community: My brand new Eurospare Control Arms were leaking, however, that was not making the clunking noise. Ironically, if it weren't for the clunk I wouldn't have looked under the car to see the dripping oil/grease. So replacing those were a PITA but...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    Update... Truck is making thunk when turning left 1 week after replacement. I believe the Eurospare Control Arms I bought are leaking their guts (big rear bushings)! I had a mechanic evaluate the suspension and they could see no faults and agreed with me that the new control arm bushing had...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    Took the dive into replacing lower front control arms. The rear bolt was seized to the bushing on both sides. I suppose this caused the issues as the bushings looked good otherwise; there were no signs of loose play at all. A few suggestions... Get a bolt kit before you begin (I was able...
