Nervous but now ready
Agreed if you need/want the extra power, but as I said above it's more than enough for everyday use. I certainly didn't buy it for the gas mileage :). After being familiar with my previous V6 LR3 and no major issues after 280k km, I was comfortable with another one. It's essentially a Ford V6...- kameag

Nervous but now ready
I am on my second 3, both have had the V6 and both very reliable. A little underpowered for highway passing etc but plenty for everyday use.- kameag

I had the same issue with my first LR3. Very hot smell when I parked in the garage. It was the rear caliper stuck on as per Ian above. -

Lr3 fault issues
I am the last guy to have any real knowledge other than reading a lot of forums. Similar (not same) issues I had ended up being an electrical issue with the wire bundle in the front passenger door step. Was filled with water and caused a short. Everyone seems to think the IID Tool from GAP... -

This is a little odd to me.
This is just the beginning of having kids costing you a lot of money. Worth it though! I recently had my LR3 brakes done, all four corners (pads and disks) for about $1300 Canadian at an independent. Not in Alberta so I can't help you out on referral to a mechanic there.- kameag

What to upgrade/ replace on a 96k mi 2007 LR3 V8 to be solid daily driver
Just bought a 2007 LR3 V6 with about 71k and very well looked after so would be interested in a few modern conveniences as well. On your list the Bluetooth capability and a backup cam/carplay would be great. I recently found this for Bluetooth and will order one if they are still producing it... -

Upgrade my LR3?
Thank you bbyer. Well I went to drive it and it drove very solid....nothing noticable including no shimmy or shakes at highway speeds. Interior is in better shape than mine as assumed with the lower mileage. Paint looked good except for a mark above windshield. But...the a/c did not work, which... -

Suspension Fault, HDC unavailable,Transmission fault, brake switch
This was the problem with my recent fix (see thread). I finally took it a land rover specialist and they diagnosed the circuit and fixed it in a beer 3 hours. No parts required. It was the brake switch circuit that was shorted in my case. -

Have the Transmission, HDC, Brake Light, Suspension Lowering Problem!
Decided to give it one last shot and took it to Westminster Motors in Toronto to see if they could get me back running. They were able to fix me up within a couple hours and I was one happy camper. Turns out it was the same as Cbn's resolution above. Water leak (undetermined what from at this...
