    Front Control Arm Replacement

    I went with Eurospare replacement control arms. I've read they're made in the same factory as Land Rover part. I also figure the Land Rover part isn't that well made so why not save myself a few hundred. Just waiting for my new rear bushing bolt. These are the torque specs I plan to use...

    Front Control Arm Replacement

    I found a SKF publication that puts the torque for the axle nut @ 169 fit-lbs and/or 230 Nm... On a side note, the rear axle nut is 311 ft-lbs!

    Front Control Arm Replacement

    Thanks to those who filled in some of my questions. Can anyone confirm/share the torque specs for the front-rear bushing, front-forward bushing, ball joint, and shock mount bolts.

    Front Control Arm Replacement

    Hola, I'm in the middle of a grueling control arm replacement. I've been wrestling with the bolts for hours and finally cut them off. After that I spent a few hours trying to remove bushings. The front -forward bushing would not budge using a 12ton shop press. Anyway, getting ready to install...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    Squawk/creak still persists, but I was driving down a bumpy dirt road and recognized a consistent clunk (deep sound). Any other potential culprits? I know LCA bushings are common on LR3, but they aren't moving much with a crow bar. Don't want to throw money at new LCA if I can't confirm...

    Clunking persists after new bushings

    This sounds like the problem I'm having. Did you ever get this corrected? Let me know what the final culprit is. Regards. Reference to my thread: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/suspension-creaking-squawking.39889/

    Suspension creaking squawking

    So, replaced front sway bar bushing with no improvement. Steering is a bit stiffer, but same sounds.

    Lug nut torque?

    Just had to bounce on my lugs with all my body weight to loosen them up using a 25" breaker bar ! If I was on the side of the road they never would have loosened! Must have been close to 400 lb/ft...

    2011 LR4 Trailer Reverse Sensor

    I'd save your money as I have a trailer hooked up and the sensor keeps going off. The car is registering the trailer as the turn signal shows a flashing trailer on the dashboard. Anyone in CO have a OBDII tool with customer preferences options?

    2011 LR4 Trailer Reverse Sensor

    Just removed my Atlantic British wiring and installed genuine Land Rover wiring. It made no difference at all. Atlantic British Customer Service claims that LR service department should be able to enable the feature using their software, but i'm not paying for an hour of labor just for that...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    OK, got under the car and tried to get a socket or a wrench on all 4 bolts before I attempted this. The upper bracket bolt on the drivers side is too close to the front differential. Can the differential be raised to create space to get to the bolt? Anyone done this on a 2011 LR4 and have a...

    2011 LR4 Trailer Reverse Sensor

    Called Land Rover Service department near me and they seemed surprised I didn't have a button on the dash. They thought no button meant no sensors. The volume is NOT adjustable through the stereo as others have stated in other posts on other forums. One tech thought the aftermarket wiring may...

    2011 LR4 Trailer Reverse Sensor

    Anyone know what I need to do to disable the reverse sensor when trailer is hooked up? Or bike rack for that matter? My dash doesn’t have an off button. I’m using an aftermarket wiring harness from Atlantic British.

    75k mile service - diff and transfer case fluid change

    Just completed this maintenance. All fluids looked amazingly clean. Probably could have waited, but hiendsight is 20/20. Used owners manual volumes for front and read Diff. (non locking). Transfer case filled to the fill hole. The amounts listed by Pfunk951 look similar to my manual but off...

    Suspension creaking squawking

    Have a creak-squawk in my suspension that is periodic. Only happens at slow speeds going over small bumps. I can also replicate the sound when pumping brakes at a stop light; sound is a bit different. Pushed on the suspension in my garage and couldn't replicate. Jacked up the car and...

    Downshift catching... a bit harsh... Just a bit.

    Quick update: I went and test drove a 2011 LR4 and it had a similar downshift feel at the same deceleration speeds:rolleyes:. My car's feedback is more pronounced, but I'd image still within acceptable limits. I guess I'm overly sensitive/concerned about getting burned on a used vehicle. Can...

    Downshift catching... a bit harsh... Just a bit.

    Based on everyone's recommendations I will not reset the adaptations at this point. My understanding is the solenoids tend to go fast and furious and set off fault codes. Gonna keep a close eye on whether it's getting worse or not. Right now it fairly intermittent. I question if I would be...

    2011 LR4 in Galway Green

    Just bought a 2011 LR4 in Galway Green. Was looking for a family SUV that could tow my 21' R-Pod. For almost the same price I could get a 5.7L Jeep Grand Cherokee or a LR4... Never seriously considered the Jeep. The LR4 is a handsome design. I've always liked boxy lines. Can't wait to do...

    75k mile service - diff and transfer case fluid change

    Just for a laugh, I called a Land Rover dealership in-between Denver and Boulder to ask about buying some OEM transmission fluid and was quoted over $800 for 7 liters. LOL :confused:

    Downshift catching... a bit harsh... Just a bit.

    Thanks for the replies. Like I said, the engine pressure slowdown is light but distinct. Compared to my Volvo it is obvious. That being said, absent engine transmission fault codes, I am not ready to take apart my transmission. Absent any other recommendations, I am going to live with it for...
