    LR4 market question

    Great story. Agree with the point about about aging. We have a well kept LR3 as well and hav e started getting notes on our windshield with offers to buy.

    LR4 market question

    Great data points thanks all. Clearly a lot of variability. And yes what sane person would sell? Everybody we talk to says they regret selling theirs. We also have an LR3 which I still love.

    Coolant pipe failure (SCV6)

    Had a failure in the coolant system with no warning (no lights, temp spike, etc.). Just started smoking and shut it off. Looks like we might have dodged the worst case scenario as heads and block look tight on first inspection. Looks like the coolant outlet pipe failed and dumped everything...

    Is the location of the plate in the rear of the LR4 legal in CO?

    We’ve had our 3s and 4S for 15 years and 200k collective miles in CO and not one issue. There are hundreds of not more of them on the roads. How in the world did you ever even come across that language?

    How to sell a 2016 LR4 HSE Silver Edition?

    In a situation like this, where a model is special (rarity, passing of a generation, etc.), you risk a lower trade in value than if you just were trading a plain vanilla car. By all accounts you have a great example and HD pack would add to it's uniqueness but it should bring good money even...

    Nokian WR G4

    I’ve had several sets of the WRG3/4 and am a huge fan. For something more durable off-road but still 4 season capable look at the Nokian Rotiiva. Have them on our 3 and they are a fantastic do everything tire. PS Are there others here who wouldn’t buy a tire simply because of the way the tread...

    Nokian Hakka

    I've had a lot of Nokian's across LR3 and LR4 for many years. The Hakka Rx (3 or 4 now, I can't remember) is the best pure winter tire, no need for studs, it has extraordinary grip in snow and ice. The WRG3/4 is the best all season tire, winter oriented, with very low noise, great grip and tread...

    Oversize tires for 2020 Defender

    18s only on the 4 banger, doing a brake swap for 1” smaller wheels is absurd. LR screwed the pooch on this.

    Let's try to get the facts down on tensioner issues

    Allow me to chime in for the SCV6 contingent. - 2015 SCV6 - OE oil and change intervals, all at the dealer - At 49,900 miles (no joke) noise became very obvious. Dealer originally dismissed as normal but after a second visit agreed there was an issues and replaced tensioners, guides. Mine still...

    Emotional buy alert - need help now!

    Only thing I heard about them is that the Diesel engine needs to be driven, shorter trips build up a lot of deposits. A Range with extra range would be nice.
