    What did you do with your Lr4 Today?

    Yep. I think I'm looking at front edge of passenger side wheel well. Break out the heat gun, reroute heater pipes, cut body flange, then drive on.

    My dash lit up like a christmas tree after driving in snow.

    I live in Houston where we flood frequently and have had mine submerged to the intakes many, many times driving through floodwaters without issue. Really would make me think one of the sensors suffered physical damage from a chunk of snow or ice. As said above, ditch that battery and replace...

    Slider Comparison; anyone used either of these?

    You're in CA. Call Tactical and ask them to build them however you want. I have heard stories of them doing custom changes before.

    2013 LR4 - Battery dead - Weird things - 3 options?

    I have revived multiple "dead" batteries with my Noco Genius charger. I absolutely love the thing. Enough so that I bought 3 to sprinkle between the farm and home. I doubt that little 1 or 2 amp maintainer would do much though.

    Here's a look I haven't seen before....

    Hmmm. I don't hate it.

    2016 brush guards, rack and ladder - please identify

    I strongly wish someone with some 3d printing skills (sadly, I have none) would do a run of mirror image snorkels for us in the USA. It would look a little goofy with two on the truck, but having puckered my butt on more than one occasion when I failed to keep a good bow wave going, I would add...

    Lessons Learned Rebuilding 5.0 V8 2012 LR4 Engine

    Really, any domestic pushrod iron block engine where I can get parts from Autozone would be an upgrade IMO.

    Lessons Learned Rebuilding 5.0 V8 2012 LR4 Engine

    Thanks for sharing. I know I'm like a broken record in these threads, but damn, I want a viable LS swap option that works with the electronics for these trucks. Smaller, more reliable, more power and much simpler. I'm probably a different use case than most, as I will likely keep mine until I...

    Rhino / ox hitch option

    That was a startling read. Glad I have a truck to tow with. The LR4 tows like crap anyway IMO once you start bolting on larger wheels/tires, although I have pressed it into service on occasion at my farm.

    Still apprehensive

    I quote my Dad, may he RIP. "Things that move break". Fix it and drive on. Ain't worth worrying about.

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    1. Keep looking. They are out there. I found a "pass through" type where the only thickness is the ratchet itself and the length of the bit. 2. If you're going to do it, do it IMHO. 3. I replaced this. It is tight, but doable.

    Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues

    Blaze a new trail. LS swap. Somebody has got to get it figured out for us as these vehicles age.

    Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues

    Early or late interior 944? Damn, I loved those cars. I still rate my modded 968 as the best handling P-Car I have ever owned. Whooda think 150-250 HP could be so much fun.

    2014-2016 Traxide Dual Battery Kit Lessons Learned

    So glad I don't have to deal with that start/stop stuff. I had wondered before if the Traxide kit could even be adapted to function with it. Will be interested to hear if you get it sorted. When you say "power distribution block" are you referring to the Traxide "relay" box?

    105K Service // Full Schedule // Cat Replacement

    I think I had the intakes out for other stuff I was messing with. I did not remove either of my two batteries. I might have pulled the centermost piece of the aux battery tray out. Honestly don't remember. I do remember multiple swivels being my friend.

    105K Service // Full Schedule // Cat Replacement

    Damn. $800.00 for plugs? It ain't a 5 hour job. I think it took me 1.5.

    Repeatable Vibration Issues

    Anybody mention tie rod ends yet? When they go, you can feel it in the steering wheel. They are another known failure point. Easy and relatively cheap fix, though.

    Lucky 8 LR4 ARB Rear Locker

    Haha. My wife went wheeling with me once in Colorado in a rented Jeep. Got back from that day and I was informed she would never be doing that again.... This was going up to the radio tower above Silverton. At least she skis.

    Lucky 8 LR4 ARB Rear Locker

    Did you take it over Black Bear? That is probably the most infamous, but actually easy trail in the area. The 4 did particularly well there. It and the Jeeps were the only guys we saw running it that could navigate the switchbacks without turning them into a multipoint turn. It is stunningly...

    ~14.88 Voltage?

    It will settle down. Everytime you disconnect the battery the "smart charging" takes a bit to re-adjust. There has been much discussion on this forum over the terribly lame charging system on these trucks that patently refuse to fully charge our batteries. Enjoy the 14.88 while you have it.

    Lucky 8 LR4 ARB Rear Locker

    Here is mine climbing "the wall" at Poughkeepsie many years ago. ;) Excuse my buddy's doofus commentary, and skip to about 2:00 for the driving. To each their own, but I wouldn't have one without a locker, and now have an airlocker in the front as well. These are big, heavy rigs. They need...

    Heated windshield not working

    IIRC, the move to 40A fuses was sanctioned by JLR in a tech bulletin. I would have to do the research to prove it, but that is my memory.

    2010-2011 LR4 Fuel leak investigation - FYI

    My 2012 still suffered the problem, so guessing the "modified" part is still a bit hinky.

    So You Want an Auxiliary Fuel Tank for Your LR4...

    Just figured one less thing hanging off the back. Didn't seem much different to me then just stepping up on the bumper if I need to access the roof.

    2015 LR4 Coolant Change Issues

    Those are the only ones I have ever used. You will know you are getting close when coolant spouts like a geyser out of the one closest to the firewall.
