    Battery life

    Rather than starting a new post, I'll resurrect this one. Purchased a new battery January 2, 2025 and it was installed into my (engine failing) LR4. Purchased an AC Delco 94R/PG - 800CCA. It then basically sat around until March 15 when our engine replacement was completed. Charged up the...

    2010 LR4 Air suspension need advice

    Ours will occasionally "settle" after locking the doors. Typically this seems to be to level out.

    Beep beep

    If the battery in key fob fails, there are three raised lines on the bottom side of the steering column. Hold the key fob up against these three lines and the key fob will be sensed and allow vehicle to start (even with no battery in fob).

    Beep beep

    Here is the behavior with our LR4. If the fob is anywhere inside the vehicle the door buttons will not lock the doors and the "beep beep". If the fob is outside of the vehicle all of our door buttons work as expected to lock the vehicle. Seems to me it is a feature to prevent you from leaving...

    LUX vs Vision package

    OK, good deal. So basically you can get either HSE or HSE LUX with about any mix of the options. lol Thanks for the clarification on all of that. Everything I can find based on VIN and documentation says our vehicle is HSE. I don't have premium leather, memory seats, nor center cooler. I think...

    LUX vs Vision package

    Is Vision package a thing or is that just describing that an LR4 has the 360 camera system? Our LR4 HSE has a lot (if not all) of the features listed when I search for what the LUX package includes with the exception of the center console cooler, the memory seats, and the premium leather. We...

    Fuel Related Issue at Start Up

    FOMOCO is Ford Motor Company. Interestingly enough, I've found other sensors, etc. in the LR4 are marked FOMOCO. Camshaft and Crankshaft position sensors were the latest that I discovered. Can't remember off hand some of the others that I've seen.

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    @Tapps33 - Correct, not (enough) time or tools. I looked for a few independents and most didn't have the tools or comfort level with the LR4. In the end I couldn't find any options other than a dealer. I tried reaching out to lostcauseranch, but no response... and I'm even a fellow Iowan. :(

    Bad ECM or something else?

    That's the same part # that I put in when I replaced.

    Auxiliary Battery

    What is the name of the ebay seller? Those links aren't working for me. I've run for 3 years with my auxillary battery disconnected, but I've always contemplated getting a new battery to get rid of the light. I wish there was a way to change the default to "off" or that it would remember the...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    So as mentioned before, I'm getting the engine replaced. I'm going to ask if I can keep the old engine. Would that be odd or do you think they have some type of "core" cost already subtracted? I figure it never hurts to ask.

    2011 LR4 HSE Coolant Leak Help

    Do you have skid plates on the bottom side that could be making the leak appear to come from the driver's side when it is actually somewhere else? Until you said driver's side by the front axle it sounded just like the issue that I was having that was caused by the front crossover.

    Need some help from the experts to identify this ticking on a '16 LR4

    I have 2015 V6 and timing chains puked on me. Oil changes were @ 5000 miles. 130,000 miles

    Edited: nvm - I'm no expert and that is what you asked for and the forum wouldn't let me delete the post.

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    The chain was definitely loose. I was able to see and push it through the oil cap. This was the image that they said was the most telling. Here were the words of the service advisor, "On this you can see the gapping is off and there is a chunk out of the bottom piece" That and the sound it...

    Cold weather transmission failure

    I know this thread is years old, but I'm trying to do my part to contribute experiences when/where I have them. 2015 LR4 We had a cold spell last winter (-10 F was the highest temp for 5+ days). I had it one morning (-25 F) that we received a Transmission Fault error and it wouldn't shift into...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    @jlglr4 - One of the independent shops identified it was the chains. Removing the oil cap and looking down they could see too much play and flapping if they turned over the engine. Personally, I couldn't tell/see enough from these pictures, but I'd like to think that I can trust them and their...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    @GunsAndRovers - I was under that impression as well that 2014 and newer didn't have the timing chain issue. Which was why we looked for a 2015/2016. In talking with both Minneapolis and Omaha technicians they indicated that the newer model LR4s have fewer timing chain issues, but they are still...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    @powershift - I don't have the non JLR part number. I might possibly be able to dig it up. Here is a non-heated JLR part number: LR051567 I asked them to put it in the box and in the back of the LR4 if they can take it off without cracking. I'd be happy to sell it to you if they are successful!

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    @itsaguything - I didn't answer your earlier question. This was from a dealer. I had two LR dealers give an estimate and asked two independents. One independent said he could do timing chains, then read the tech sheets on how to do the job and backed out. 2nd independent took 3.5 weeks to get me...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    Yep, I'm not really questioning the price. It seems about right based on what I've seen on this site and others. We could potentially find a comparable LR4 for lower cost than that and possibly a few less miles, but then as many of you have mentioned it could all happen again. Just like any...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    Oil was changed every 5k. Started with a check engine light on indicating the camshaft/crankshaft out of sync and running slightly rough. When I cleared the code the engine ran smooth, acceleration, etc. was good. Turned it off, started again and the CEL was back and same code, running slightly...

    2015 LR4 - Major engine work - Sell / Sell Parts

    Have a 2015 LR4 that my wife absolutely loves. It has had its share of standard wear and tear type repairs over the last 3 years that we've owned it. Now unfortunately it had a timing chain issue... which also resulted in cylinder head damage. $15k to fix those IF the valves were not bent or...

    Diff Fluid

    I'm watching this conversation as I'd like to know if there is a fluid that I can either top off my rear differential or change the fluid myself. My understanding is that only the dealerships (nearest one is 2+ hours away) have the correct fluid and there isn't a compatible spec'd fluid...
