Has anyone had headgasket done?
Do you realize they weren't even made by the same company? People like you are what make forums like this intolerable. -

Has anyone had headgasket done?
These motors are completely different than what you are talking about. The dealer is the only source for some of this stuff. So I had no choice. The engine you are referring to is over 25 years old and I'm sure I could find cheap parts for one of those as well. Plus there is a lot more info out... -

Has anyone had headgasket done?
I cleaned out the loose material in the cat. Hopefully it doesn't plug. No emission checks here so I can live with a check engine light if I need to. My heads were warped out of spec so I have some used ones coming from ebay that I will send to the machine shop, and fingers crossed they check... -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
While working on mine I was reading the workshop manual from topix and it actually shows a picture of the tensioner and the tensioner blade and says "if they look like this replace with these" but it doesn't give a date range and has running change type of feel to it. -

Has anyone had headgasket done?
I can see damage to the left cat. No smog tests here though so that's a relief. -

Has anyone had headgasket done?
I haven't owned the thing long, but I suspect the previous owner overheated it. It had been having problems and I was suspecting that I had a slight head gasket leak when I had an upper radiator hose blow and I overheated it. After that it was for sure head gaskets. I am going to do a waterpump... -

Has anyone had headgasket done?
I have a 2010 LR4 with at least one blown headgasket. I was in the process of diagnosing a miss on the even cylinders and a hard start when the truck overheated and proved my suspensions true: blown headgasket. My question is when they things overheat does it ruin the heads? I have the ability... -

Where to find a parts book?
I am in need of a parts book for one of these. I didn't see one on the Topix website but I could have just missed it. I did see one on one of the LR dealer sites but it was pretty crude. I live 2+ hours from the dealer and I want to be able to see what the parts guy there is seeing. Any advice? -

Service ManualS
I did that the other day and it worked well. I paid $8 for an hours access to only the service manual and I spent the next hour downloading everything I thought I would need. There is no direct download button, but what you can do is open a section and select the print option and it brings up a... -

2010 LR4 Misfires on 2,4,6,8
I have only owned it a few weeks. I think I figured out why the previous owner sold it though. In general when that happens does it ruin the head or just head gaskets? It is hard to find a lot of information out on the web. -

2010 LR4 Misfires on 2,4,6,8
It was hard to tell. It wasn't oil. I was hoping it was fuel from leaking injectors but it didn't burn when I held a lighter up to the plug. I know I sound crazy here but when I licked (yeah I know) the plug it tasted sweet. I was trying to mentally force it to not be heads gaskets but I think I...
