    Highest mileage LR4?

    I’m not so sure about the theme developing here. Preventative maintenance is key…. Stay on top of necessary repairs… then go driving. Sure, I had an an alternator failure. But for the record, a cheap ass owned the vehicle before me. Replaced both batteries with cheap lead-acid and bypassed...

    pizza cutters...General Grabber ATx

    Personal preferences…. But for me, LT tires feel like granite. Great for carrying heavy loads on a work truck. And the low working air pressures are limited. XLs are much more “malleable”. And are able to adopt a comfortable form with varying air pressures. Much more suited to passenger...

    Quick Tires Question

    nothing you can’t handle in your robe, with your tape measure, while the espresso machine is warming up. Did you run the numbers? It seems fine to me though I am unsure of your rim width and as the new size is 20mm thinner…

    3rd Row Seatback Folding Problem: Seatbelt Latch Doesn't Retract

    A coincidence that many of us have the very same issue on the very same side??

    Battery Draw

    Actually, the battery test is well laid out in the workshop manual. There is a subtle difference from what I stated earlier. Following the 24 hour rest, apply a small load (ignition and lights but DO NOT start the engine) then check the voltage on the battery. Truly, many think there is a drain...

    maintenance history since new 2013

    Out of interest, how often did you change the power steering fluid? Also, new plugs at 160k…. is that the second time you’ve replaced them? Lastly, how often do you change your brake fluid?

    TOYO AT3 255/55/19

    Didn’t get 20k?? Really? We must have different tires. I have the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus, and at 10k, they show very little wear, although being in Canada, there is no way I’m using them in the winter. Winter tires only. I do concur that the spec’d size is appropriate. But for...

    2014 LR4 Leaking Coolant

    It does appear that in this coolant leak situation, in which the water pump was described as the root cause; that everything that has contact with the coolant is being targeted for replacement… hmmmm, don’t know about that. Along with the water pump and associated accessories; Gaskets, hoses...

    Battery Draw

    Define “good”. If it is disconnected from the vehicle, charged to 100%, and left sitting on the bench for 12 hours minimum, It should read 12.6v or better following the resting period. A battery reading of 12.3v is a battery only capable of holding 50% capacity… And that is definitely not good...

    Highest mileage LR4?

    Religion, politics… and vehicles… a catalyst for entertainment from the sidelines. I’m only at 160,000 kms. And this 3.0 Supercharged keeps up quite nicely. I don’t seem to have all the issues that others complain about…. oh yeah, “preventative” maintenance. ;)

    2012 - Decreased power on incline

    Define “going up hills”. 20, 30, 40 degree slope. Are you fully laden? Towing? I don’t buy the argument “getting old”… if not in proper repair: Fix it. ”Lo” on the transfer case? I need much more information.

    Agreed. I was commenting on how I also would not scope LT tires.

    @BigBriDogGuy , those are some “attention to detail“ eyes you’ve got!

    pizza cutters...General Grabber ATx

    :). I like you guys think this way. All the military vehicles I’ve driven in areas you would have thought impassable…. on thin tires! And I would choose the Generals or Nittos too. But unlike many, not LT rated; reason being there are times when you may need to significantly deflate the tires...

    2014 LR4 Leaking Coolant

    Unfortunately the pics don’t show the actual coolant routing… so its anyone’s guess. Hoses? Radiator? Reservoir?

    Lr4 oil level meter capacity

    It seems my point was missed. Later, LR issued a memo that the oil interval needed to be changed. This was applicable for all 5.0l engines.

    Highest mileage LR4?

    :). I feel you @BigBriDogGuy . I’m a cheapskate. (That is I’m all about “value”, no matter what the cost) @ktm525 , I have no interest in a boring Japanese, Korean or American vehicle… as many of them well, are boring. As with all my vehicles, I’m driving them until the wheels fall off. Of...

    Coolant Leaking from behind rear wheel

    Procedure for servicing the auxiliary climate control are well laid out in the workshop manual. As are the routing of the coolant and refrigerant lines. All connections are immediately below the loadspace floor. Pull out the LH load space liner to confirm the location of the tubes. Myself, I...
