    Took my LR3 to the dealer and now this...

    I had something similar happen to me. Took it back to the dealer. They said they had rotated the tires after replacing the tie rods (or whatever it was at the time, I forget). They then un-rotated the tires (put them back where they were originally), and the vibrating steering wheel went...

    Trunk Latch Issue

    Parts = $235 Plus labor. I can't figure out the labor because multiple items were repaired. Maybe $150.

    Trunk Latch Issue

    I'll see if I can dig out the most recent receipt tomorrow. The first one I believe was covered by the original LR warranty.

    Trunk Latch Issue

    Search this forum. Happens every 2.5 years. Silly design inside the tailgate. I just have the dealership break into the truck and open up the tailgate and replace the failed part. It is a pain when the trunk is full up with stuff. And, replacement is not free. Others on this forum have...

    Door Trim Removal (Exterior)

    Mine came off one door when I whacked a snowbank with the door (when closing it). I pounded it back in with the palm of my hand. I listened for the "pop" on each clip. This was 4 years ago. No problems since. I also overloaded my truck a couple months ago with a door open (a different...

    Ambient Temperature Guage

    Isn't that "plug" the sensor? It just isn't attached to a bracket?

    Ambient Temperature Guage

    The ambient temperature gauge on the dash of my 05 LR3 has suddenly (after I had the suspension compressor replaced) begun reading truly preposterously high temperatures. Two questions: (1) where is the gauge so I can see if it is covered in something (or otherwise physically looks messed...

    AUX. Input HELP?

    Do you have a 1-2 mm drill bit for metal? Drive in (carefully), push down slightly, and pull out. And good luck.

    Whistling sound

    When I first got my '05 LR3, I had the second issue you describe. The LR3 was in warranty at the time and the dealership fixed it very quickly when the truck was in for a service--new clips/tighter fit/no noise.

    LR3 with NO radio/CD volume

    My radio had a similar-sounding problem (2005 LR3) a couple years ago. The fix was (allegedly) replacement of memory chips or memory buffers. In short, the radio unit "core" did not need to be replaced, but the memory (and the firmware on the memory) was zapped. The memory cannot be separated...

    Tailgate will not open

    That was probably me -- I had just loaded and unloaded a large gas grill before mine failed. I'm not sure how that would have caused the problem--but it seemed more than a coincidence at the time.

    Gas Cap

    It's funny this thread came up now. I was at the dealer's yesterday, getting my gas cap door fixed (wouldn't stay shut) and the tech and I were checking out the gas cap doors on the other cars in the lot. And one was locked (the LR3 was turned off). I asked if that was a new feature on the...

    Gas Cap

    At least with my '05, a locking gas cap was not a feature in the US. What year is yours?
