    Launch Pro Mini

    Has anyone heard of the Launch Pro Mini or have used it something similar? Can this do what the IId tool can do? Do you think it can reset that service required reminder on a 2010 LR4? It's a bit more money but it also has ability to work on other vehicle makes.

    Hood open warning

    I noticed the other day with hood open there are two black plastic pins near each headlight. I noticed that the pins seem to be stuck in down position. How high should these pins be with hook open? Is it okay to lubricate them, if so with what type of lube? Husker, I would check your pins to...

    Rear hatch switch not working

    Sorry for the confusion. To clarify the rubber button on top glass portion of hatch does not do anything when i press it. Normally you would stand beside it, reach under and press upwards to unlock the top glass. It no longer responds, however, I can still open the top portion pressing the trunk...

    Rear hatch switch not working

    The rear hatch switch does not release/open the rear tail gate for my 2010 LR4. When I use the trunk button on the keyfob the upper tail gate opens, so seems the actuator/cable system is still working. Before I go and replace this switch is there potentially any other cause or tests I should do...

    Sudden braking while in motion

    Thanks for the Sil-Glyde recommendation. Never heard of it, but from a bit of research seems to be great stuff. I'll have to pick some up if I can find it. The transmission has been very smooth except maybe the first few minutes when it's warming up. It's a 2010 with 53,000 miles on it (85,000...

    Sudden braking while in motion

    Thanks for all your replies. It almost could feel like a bad transmission shift, except I think the transmission shifts really smooth already. Only have 85,000 kms on it. However, I just bough some transmission fluid and will change it and see if that helps. I'll also go ahead and dismantle...

    Sudden braking while in motion

    The situation feels more like something is actuating the brakes or e-brake momentarily, so likely an electronic issue? There was one more time about two weeks ago that this might have happened. Just backed out of parking spot, wheels cranked full one direction and in drive, while moving forward...

    Sudden braking while in motion

    Just the other day it seemed the vehicle braked on it's own while the car was in motion. This happened a few times during the same trip. Here were were three occasions on this half hour drive: 1. While braking slowly towards red light, moving <5 km/hr, seems the brakes just seized and i stopped...

    LR4 Squeek

    I had a similar noise. Mine was the tail gate hinges. They were lubricated and the squeaking stopped. To get to the hinges lower tail gate and lift the flap, there's two hinges there.

    Air release when opening doors normal?

    Okay thanks. I just thought it was weird that it seemed to happen more when I opened the door.

    Air release when opening doors normal?

    Hi Everyone, just picked up a 2010 recently and loving it. Still getting used to all the complexities of the vehicle. So my question is, it seems everyone once after it's been sitting for a while, and I go and open a door, I hear a quick hiss (i.e. air release). Is this normal?
