Brake problem help requested
I'm running a 2011. Mine is so bad that the protective paint on the hub portion of the rotor peeled off early. I'll replace it after I figure out the problem. -
Brake problem help requested
I shook the wheels and got no wobble, and I got the vibrations even without braking at highway speeds. I've tried parking without setting the EPB everytime and have not gotten the vibration again, fingers are crossed that it's just some anomaly that won't happen again. -
GapIID BT compatibility
That's a valid thought, maybe I could ru nout and just grab a cheap tablet and put a tough case around it. I was hoping to be able to do that but can't seem to figure out how to access the menus through the car only without using BT. -
GapIID BT compatibility
Hey everyone, about two months ago I bought a new GAPIID tool from Lucky8 and have always had a compatibility problem with my phone. I'm running a Sony z5 compact with the latest android version on it. When I originally contacted them, they said there was nothing they could do for me and to... -
OT, Range Rover dropped his subwoofer...
Good eye, looks like a pistol version of an mp5 or something. Good taste, bad judgement -

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to do more digging and hopefully the job won't **** me. Gotta love those AB videos, they cover just about everything -
Brake problem help requested
I think we're fighting two different problems, mine does it whether or not I brake. Yours kind of sounds like what happened in my old BMW. It started out with a light shudder under braking and eventually got really bad through normal driving. That one turned out to be the front control arm... -
Brake problem help requested
curious, does that have a smell problem as well? I have tried giving the wheels a shake while jacked up, and have tried changing lanes whenever it vibrates to see if the vibration stops. Maybe I'm lucky and it's just really early on the wear -

"But I seent other sports cars do it, and this is a Range Rover Sport" That's going to be one awkward conversation with the insurance company. -
Brake problem help requested
Hey so I have what I'm pretty sure is a brake problem. Every now and then when I drive higher speeds on the highway, I'll get a vibration that starts small then gets pretty crazy. When I stop and check it, you definitely smell burning brakes, so I went ahead and replaced the following: -Rotors... -
Need an ID on random cord
Ah thanks, so strange that they'd do that. Thanks umbertob, I'll either drop a dummy plug on it or more realistically tape over it. Since I bought my car second hand, I didn't know if some bubbification happened here. -
Need an ID on random cord
Hey all, I was checking my fuses and saw this random cord unplugged. Anyone have any idea what it's supposed to hook up to? -
Driving LEDs
Wait are you talking about during the daytime as DRLs? I've read (so take that with a grain of salt) that apparently the only way to get them to work as DRLs is to buy their DRL options directly from them. -
Bluetooth Audio Streaming For LR4
I'm curious as well. I was pondering using the USB port and one of those USB bluetooth devices you can buy on amazon, but I don't know whether that will work or not. I'm kinda miffed at the whole "your phone can make calls and calls only" deal, that combined with what seems to be no other... -
DIY: Key Fob Body swap
Yeah you've got to be careful where you're prying. On a positive note, I think I found the purpose of that strangely shaped cubicle in our vehicles
