    If you haven't seen this yet, here's a nice write up for California's Lemon Law based around the Song-Beverly Act. https://www.dca.ca.gov/acp/pdf_files/englemn.pdf

    Another Defender hint?

    Just can't help but laugh... Any status updates on your delivery @umbertob ?

    Stop start mystery

    My 2015 did the same thing. It was a Power Distribution module that failed, didn't throw any codes or Amber lights. Not knowing any better, I had the dealer replaced the module under warranty. If you fix yours, i'll buy your module from you! :call: Now I live with the eco battery...

    2014 LR4 Power Failure

    How about disconnecting the battery for an hour? BTW, I have a 2015 and I'm on my 3rd battery. The vehicle itself will kill it eventually, regardless if you leave a door open or not. All those systems need power to function. While I haven't experienced anything close to what yours did...

    Rear brake job - ebrake in service mode?

    When I replaced my rear rotors on my 2015 I put the parking brake into service mode. No problems or issues. Everything went smoothly.

    New Brakes - 2015 LR4

    This is always a lively topic on here. Can you elaborate on the quoted scope of work? Whats listed? At that price I would assume it may include new rotors, if you have a nice dealer? Retail part cost for new pads up front including the sensor should range from $80 to $100 for "aftermarket"...

    Another Defender hint?

    I can see it now... "Everything about tires for D90/ D110 with 18" wheels"

    Whats the purpose of these aluminum blocks ?

    The "mandatory" 2015 and newer running boards are built entirely different than the previous running boards. They are comprised of what looks like .120 wall tubular steel. There is no thin sheet metal as seen in the photos above. Newer boards will not be rusting away any time soon.

    Stop start battery failure cause?

    So after the software fix / flash, did you have an Amber Eco (Unavailable) Dash light on all the time? This is the first confirmation, that I know of, that software can turn the ECO system off.

    Red warning light

    Red triangle comes on with key on and door open, whether engine is started or not. My 15 also displays a red battery and amber check engine while key on/engine off. All lights extinguish once door is closed and engine is turned on.

    LR4 Brakes and Rotors

    I second @avlash view point. Doable, but a it's a pain. As you are compacted into the wheel well, you ask yourself about a 100 times, "Who in their right mind would put this connection here?"

    How to Disable the ECO Feature

    Do you have a copy of your work order receipt? The ECO system cannot be overridden by programming, that I know of. Currently, the only known way to override the system is to disconnect the AUX battery. There have been instances reported when the aux battery or the Power Supply Distribution...

    ECO Light

    My ECO battery has been dead for 4 years. No downside to my knowledge other than the Amber dash light. We live in an urban, hilly area and the use of the ECO feature is down right scary when turning onto a busy road, uphill with a blind corner. No thank you! The ECO start/stop system...

    TMPS Recommendation ?

    @hatch Did you ask @Gravey about his TPMS setup? He's running TuffAnts.

    Compomotive PD 1881 finish delamination

    Wrapping up this dilemma, I was able to get my wheels powder coated ($110 per wheel) and new shoes installed this past week. I managed 55K miles out of the original KO's and now put on the KO2's, 265 65. Pretty happy with that. Wife says she likes the new look of the KO2's and my garage...

    285/60s on an LR4?

    I can't speak to the 285 60 question. Yes, most TPMS on the spare tire, especially if you plan on rotating in your spare during tire rotations. The TPMS system allows for the spare location sensor to be disabled so as not to cause problems when you lower the pressure to squeeze in a 265 65...

    Fueling frustration

    I've experienced this with my wife's 15. She never complains about it as she fills it up majority of the time, a non issue for her. Me on the other hand, I look like an idiot. The flap apparatus at the fill point looks twisted and such, I even pointed it out to my service tech during its...

    Supercharger Rattle?

    I hear two distinct noises, what I believe to be valve train and then there's the intermittent rattle. Am I hearing this correctly?

    2014 LR4 - "system too lean" fault codes

    I too had both of these codes thrown while under warranty. The dealership did a smoke test to reveal a vacuum leak in the right side valve cover. They replaced under warranty.

    Lean condition at idle

    “Obvious” as in where the smoke was coming out of? I can’t answer that as the dealer performed that test. I didn’t spend any time on it. It coincided (got lucky) with a planned final “warranty checkup” so I dropped it off at the dealer and never thought about it. I don’t see why you...

    Lean condition at idle

    My 15 threw threw P2187 and P2189 for a lean condition and it was the Passenger side valve cover breather, vacuum leak. Dealer verified with smoke test and ended up replacing the valve cover (LR109354) under warranty. I didn't notice any drivability issues. I too was up against a long trip but...
