2005 LR3 HSE Front and rear washer
The front and rear windshield washer went out today (in the snow, thank you Murphy's Law) in my 2005 LR3...the headlight washer jets work fine with the lights on. The 10A fuse was toasted, so I put another 10A fuse in there and it blew as well. Uprated it to a 15A, and with the headlights off... -

Can anybody point me towards a diagram for the belt routings? -

2005 LR3 seriously annoying whine from engine....
To the best of my knowledge it has not been replaced...although I still can't find a diagram, I'm under the impression that the alternator is on the passenger side lower? Which isn't where the noise is coming from. There have been no electrical problems or weird engine lights going off and on... -

2005 LR3 seriously annoying whine from engine....
I have a 2005 LR3 that has recently developed a very piercing whine coming from the engine...doesn't matter if it's in gear or not and it has never felt like the drive train is involved. Said piercing whine seems to originate from the forward driver's side of the engine, maybe a foot down into... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
The water pump seems to be working fine, but I definitely have a leak from the vent on the coolant overflow. The cap doesn't seat right (seems like stripped threads) and it's leaking a small amount of coolant constantly. You can smell it when the car is running. -

2005 LR3 Roof rack crossbars
Yeah I eventually figured all that out...placed an order with Thule around noon but I haven't gotten a confirmation email saying it has shipped yet...ran me $2.75 with about $5 shipping. Happy to hear they're quick though, thanks for replying!! -

2005 LR3 Roof rack crossbars
Can anybody tell me how to get the crossbars off of the roof rack rails? I can see they have lock cylinders at each attachment point but apparently the ignition key does not fit...and I never received any other keys with the vehicle (purchased second-hand). Are they usually hidden somewhere in... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
Quick update...went to drive the Land Rover this morning. Same deal. Let it warm up for a few minutes, and when I got in the car the heat wasn't blowing warm but it wasn't set on high either. Got maybe 1/8th of a mile before it overheated. Coolant level very, very low. So maybe I have a... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
My only complaint is low-rpm torque...I get respectable power when I need to pass someone, but it bogs for a few seconds during a quick acceleration off of idle. I managed to get a thermostat shipped to me quickly and swapped it out this morning...I didn't do the whole crossover although I... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
Thanks Bostonian...I'm seeing from some quick research that the float is prone to failure. Is the float integral to the bottom of the tank or can you swap them out (wondering why you replaced the entire tank)? The "Reduced Engine Performance" warning and the overheating were events that had... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
Thanks for your reply...I pulled off the engine cover and didn't find much white crud except a little around/under the clamp for the smaller hose off of the thermostat elbow. Most likely from this morning. I have a new OEM thermostat and gasket on order for next week...none of the places... -

2003 LR3 SE overheating...
Bought a 2005 LR3 last month with about 120K on the odometer. Not my primary driver so I haven't driven it a ton since I got it, but there are some issues cropping up already. I've been getting a "Low Engine Coolant" warning, even though I've topped it off with the recommended orange juice...
