    Bad vibration

    Well, my car was at the shop for the entire week and they were unable to re-create or diagnose the problem. So, no information to pass along.

    Bad vibration

    My car has been at the dealership for two days and they can't recreate the problem and/o figure out the source of the problem. One of the managers is going to drive it home tonight and see whether he can recreate the problem on a longer drive. I will keep you updated.

    Bad vibration

    Manoftaste - I might agree with you; however, the vibration is very intermittent. Meaning, it has only happened twice in my entire ownership. It doesn't happen only when I go above 50mph. Both times that it occurred I had already been driving on the highway for more than 30 minutes. Also, why...

    Bad vibration

    I have the same exact problem in my 2011. Exactly the same. I first noticed it last month. For me, it only happens when I am going above ~50mph and (I believe) when making a sweeping left-hand turn or cruising over uneven highway surfaces. My car is scheduled for service on the 24th. I will let...

    BLACK 2011 land rover LR4 ''METROPOLIS'' limited edition????

    In addition to the blacked-out exterior changes, the interior is also different. The black leather seats have white stitching. Everything else in the interior is also black -- carpets, dash, center console, floor mats, etc.

    CPO LR4 2013 69K miles or 2011 80K miles? Need advice!

    I thought to be eligible for CPO the car had to be under 50K miles. If you are buying this from the dealership, how does it qualify for CPO? Maybe I missed something.

    Looking at a few CPO cars, a few questions on what to look for.

    Brake pads need to have 50% or more remaining to pass CPO inspection. Mine were at 70% when I purchased my car. I asked, and the dealer threw in, a $1,000 discount on my next brake pad replacement. I would also check the tires. They also needs to have more than 50% tread remaining. If they...

    Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options

    Thanks for all the responses and info. I went with the Pirelli's. All in for 4 tires, just at $800.

    Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options

    Oclr4, are they twice as good to justify that price difference?

    Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options

    Thanks, El Solis. I have a choice between the Pirelli Scorpions and the Nitto Grappler GT -- both 265/50. The price difference is $50/tire -- meaning the Pirellis are $50 less than the Nittos. I think I will go with the Pirellis.

    Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options

    Thanks for the insight. El Solis, what size did you get in the Nitto Terra Grapplers G2? Oclr4, thanks for the offer but I have the wheels and am just looking to replace tires.

    Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options

    For those with 20 inch rims, is there a tire that people recommend more than others for a person that does mostly highway and city driving. I have done a few searches and was not able to find a definitive agreement/recommendation for such a tire. Apologies if this is redundant and otherwise...

    Putting in a stroller while all 3 rows are in use

    Which stroller do you have? In my experience, almost all the larger modern strollers are two-part items -- the frame and the seat(s). If you break the two pieces apart, then they become somewhat flat/compact as you engage the folding mechanisms for each part. As such, it may be possible to tuck...
