    Beep beep

    Hey Folks - I mentioned this in the past but have a little more bandwidth at the moment to look at this issue...

    Land Rover Valve Cover Spark Plug Gasket - Genuine Rover LR014345 - thoughts on cost

    Curious what folks think of the price difference between OE and after market for valve cover spark plug/injector gaskets, so OE are $25.19 (I assume this is each) and after market are $4.79. I'm having a hard time reconciling this huge cost difference and whether it's worth paying over $200 for...

    Timing Chain parts

    Can somebody confirm if the passenger side chain and the driver side chain are the same; I imagine they are (given the physics) but I'd like to be sure (part LR032048). Same question for the tensioner (the hydraulic/spring tensioner) (part LR095472) and then again for the guide (the aluminum...

    Serpentine/Accessory belt failure on a very wet, dark MI road in the middle of nowhere...

    We had an interesting night last night, having just gotten the truck back on the road after replacing the transmission fluid! I decided to take two of the kids and a friend out for dinner; I like to explore new places and so we ventured out. During dinner we got hit by a huge thunder and...

    Transmission - Mechatronic Valve Body Sleeve (TZV500010) replacement - help!

    Hi Team, per my other thread I'm in the middle of replacing the transmission fluid on the 6HP28 unit (2012 LR4 - 102K miles). I purchased a new mechatronic valve body sleeve but now I'm seriously questioning if I should replace the existing sleeve (it's not leaking (currently))? I'm really...

    Transmission taking too long to shift

    This seems like a new behavior today although I've had my suspicions about the transmission for a while, I'm noticing the engine revs are a little higher than I'd like and the transmission is taking longer than I'd expect to shift to the next higher gear. For example, while in second gear the...

    Rear handbrake - learning from my mistakes!

    I recently had a very weird noise coming from my rear left (US - passenger side) wheel, it was sufficiently loud that when passing pedestrians they'd look over at the LR4 (and probably helped perpetuate the perception that they're unreliable)... Anyway, lots of weird and different noises were...

    2012 Radio not storing preset stations or returning to last station listened to

    In my 2012 LR4 you can press and hold the preset radio buttons to store the station that you're currently listening to and this works fine. As soon as you turn off the car these preset stations return to 88.3. In addition; when you start the car the last station that you were listening to (say...
