Quick question.

I'm thinking of getting a block heater for the LR4. I live in Ontario, Canada and have a good number of cold days. :eek:

My wife has been using the LR4 to take the kids to school but it's such a short drive that it doesn't warm up. I'm worried long-term about this impact.

Couple questions..
1. How do I know if i have block heater already? I don't have a plug but I read that they usually are installed without one?
2. Any idea how much it would cost to get one installed? Ball park.
3. Finally, is this a good idea? Worth it?

Thanks everyone.

Just logged into TOPIX and looked up my vehicle details and it says this:
- IMMERSION HEATER-700W/110V

Could this be a block heater? Sorry if this is a noob question.

Yes it is....somewhere under the front is a plug....check behind the grill or behind the front bumper....it's tucked away somewhere.

I'm at a loss on this one.

I have no idea where to look as I'm assuming there is no cord supplied. Emailed LRNA and they were no help.

I can't find anything online anywhere.

Super weird. I thought this would be a easy find.

I am also wondering if my LR4 has a factory installed block heater. I pulled the front grill and checked under the car and didn't find anything. Maybe it's tucked in somewhere down in the engine bay?

I emailed the dealership but nothing back yet.

I can't find anything on TOPIX or on the internet which is crazy. I tried looking under the truck but it's really closed off.

Let me know if you find anything.
