    Full size Spare - What will fit in the OEM space

    I chose to lop off about a ¾" wedge of the steel bracket on both sides which was digging into the tire tread. This helped a ton. I can keep the tire at 25 psi and carry a pump. It seems like if that bracket was re worked, one could put more rubber up there. I mean we all cut and weld things...

    Disabling 2014 ECO Switch

    ahh good idea. The main battery was replaced 2 weeks ago after it died. Maybe the aux battery went with it and it wasn't caught? I'll throw a meter on it this weekend.

    Battery life on Discovery 4

    That's funny, mine died the morning I went to the hospital... car seat, check. Wife, check. Overnight bag, check. Working vehicle, uh no!!!

    Disabling 2014 ECO Switch

    Thought I'd update this thread with an interesting development. I can't get the Eco feature to work on my 15'. :ciao: haha I'm loving it. For the last few months, neither my wife nor I can recall it working at all. She never turns the override switch off either. A/C off, stereo off...

    Battery life on Discovery 4

    We're 6 weeks into our first child. I took two naps today. It's exhausting, not gonna lie. First car ride was in our LR4 on the way home. I now have a AntiGravity X-10 in my truck in case something goes awry from here on out.

    It was strange to say the least.

    Battery life on Discovery 4

    My 2015 just ate its first battery at 5500 miles. Dealer replaced it under warranty with an Interstate. Service tech says its a "much better" battery. I had quite the unusual experience when mine died. For a week or so it was a periodic "labored start". It then went completely dead one...

    2015 low battery warning

    Experiencing a low battery warning at mile 4200 on our 2015 LR4 LUX. We haven't added any electrical accessories, etc. We don't use the cooler box. Nothing is plugged into usb ports, cigarette lighters. We do drive mostly low mileage, around town types of trips which is obviously not ideal...

    2015 LR4 Car and Driver article

    No doubt the EPA and current emission standards governs their MPG averages across the entire fleet. They simply cant make those kind of numbers across the board work. I would have bought one though!

    2015 LR4 Car and Driver article

    I've never driven a LR with a V-8, however, I've driven my fair share of V-8's, old, new, muscle cars, full size trucks, etc. I've gotta say, I love our SCV6, I think what most people underestimate is the new transmission. That thing flies through the gears, rather than hearing the thumping...

    Take a wild guess..

    Ahh! No!!! Glad to hear that everyone is okay! Following too close? Or are these things so heavy they don't stop well?

    Bluetooth phone tutor?

    Are you talking about "first time" pairing or "each time" you get in the vehicle?

    LR4 Parking brake manual release

    Good post. I too was curious so I went looking, I couldn't find anything in the 2014/2015 owner's manual? Maybe I overlooked it? Here's the 2014 / 2015 LR4 version. Just need to pull out the cup holder held down by clips, there will be no secondary cover.

    side steps

    I specifically asked they not install the running boards when I ordered it. No chance. They had me sign a letter stating dealership is not authorized to remove them. Yet I had a 2014 without them.... crazy talk I say!!!

    InControl Apps

    Had the option to order the Incontrol Apps on our new 15'. Makes zero sense to have to plug your phone in to use it. :stupid:

    side steps

    I have tried unbolting the undercarriage bolts to no avail, there are more attachment points behind the lower trim. I stopped short until my wife has our kid. Its her truck and the steps help her get it while being "overloaded". My dealer service tech says there will be holes but they will...

    2015 LR4 Check Engine Light

    We've had the vehicle since Thanksgiving, so almost 2 months.

    2015 LR4 Check Engine Light

    Vehicle is operational and dealer said there is no effect on the vehicle itself other than seeing the check engine light on. All systems are operating as they should. We are due to get it back today and will have to bring it back once LR fixes the programming. Another 2015 was brought in...

    2015 LR4 Check Engine Light

    Took our 2015 LR4 into dealer as it threw a Check Engine light last weekend. Dealer's preliminary findings is that there is a parameter programmed in the vehicle computer software that doesn't jive with one of the sensor's range(unknown). LR has to re-program software and then re-flash it to...

    Disabling 2014 ECO Switch

    I see the tape! Great work around, might have to try this one. Keep us updated if the vehicle decides it doesn't like what you did.

    To compo or not to compo

    Yes, I would do that. Though I didn't want to see a low tire pressure warning all the time if I had to air down that spare so much. Once you get used to seeing the warning, it tends to be disregarded after a while and the intended use of sensors goes away. Lets face it, I'm admittedly being...

    To compo or not to compo

    Yes, I'm aware of the mods. After spending so much on the truck, to see the low pressure warnings every time on start up gets old. Want the cleanest possible install with the least amount of OEM removal. I guess it comes down to those heat shields. Probably have to shave half the tread off...

    To compo or not to compo

    For long trips I keep the 5th inside the vehicle, which is fine but not ideal of course. I'm thinking about possibly shaving some tread off so it will fit in the spare location. I'm running the BFG 265 65 18. I guess I could run a slightly smaller tire for the spare but BFG doesn't make...
