DIY, brake pad replacement questions
Well, after the great response from a forum member (YOU), I went with the Cooper Zeon LTZ's. I went through countless reviews, read yours about 3 times, looked at your pictures about 10 times, decided to hold off, went outside and measured the tread dept. of my Conti's, and they were at 4/32... -

DIY, brake pad replacement questions
Yes, just the pads. I decided to just the let the dealer do them. I'm bringing in the truck to have new tires installed next Wed., so figured I would have everything done at once. While any of my vechicles is under warranty, I have a hard time justifing doing my own work. Just in case if a... -

DIY, brake pad replacement questions

Cooper Zeon LTZ Off-Road tires on Stock 19" Wheels
David, LR4 looks great with those tires. I just started searching for tires. I'm strongly looking at these LTZ's. Seeing them on your truck is making my decision alittle easier! :-) I spent most the winter in Nova Scotia, Canada. The stock Conti's sure left alot to be desired in the... -

DIY, brake pad replacement questions
I just had my '11 LR4 at the dealer for a warranty repair. I had them check the brakes, and the pads were at 5mm. So I wanted to replace the front and rear. I have a few questions before I order the set. I will be leaving on a 900 mile trip to our home in Nova Scotia, Canada and wanted the... -

LR4 Mud flaps
I haven't noticed any noise either. Big help in keeping the side of the truck clean. The directions do leave something to be desired, but none the less an easy do it yourself project. -

Wash After Service?
Hey Captain, Thanks for the info, and I have seen leather plugs, this was many years ago and the plug in my slime kit is the rubber you mention. I had a tire plugged in my '89 Caddy, this had to be in the 90's and the plug was leather (looked almost like the leather used to stich up a baseball... -

Wash After Service?
Hey David, after reading your first post it brought back many memories of dealer nightmares, and I just found a nail in my tire last night. Just a few facts on tires and repair kits using plugs. I have one in my vechicle, but its used as a last resort in an emergency. Yes they will out... -

Potential buyer - leather stain question
No problem. I went through the same thought process. I was almost at the point of going with silver and black just to be safe knowing how I am, and that my wife would be using it. In the end I'm very happy with the color combo, even though I find myself spending some time keeping it clean... -

The tires look nice, how do you like them? I'm sure I'm not the only one looking for a quick review. Road noise, handling, etc. -

Potential buyer - leather stain question
I have an '11 Lux with the almond / arabica interior. I'm recently married with 2 early teen girls; between my wife and the 2 girls with their fancy super dark dyed jeans, it does stain the seat. Also, beware of wearing leather jackets. Oil from a dark jacket will transfer to the seats. I've... -

New owner - questions on Nav & hitch
I use a moist (water) micro fiber towel on the nav screen. I usual dont like using cleaning products on the screen, but I have used quick detailing sprays on the micro fiber towel which work nice aswell. -

Brake Controller installation
I just looked real quick and you have to remove the black panel under the dash. I believe its 2 black philips screws. The kicker panel is the panel right next to your left foot while sitting in the drivers seat. If I remember correctly it was about a foot and a half up from the floor. If you... -

Show off your Discover 4/LR4
Nice pic. David. I really like the Nara Bronze. It's too bad the color had to be dropped, but it does make it unique though which is nice. Good luck with your business trip.
