Does this 5.0 sound healthy?
I didn’t like that ‘pause’ sound when you first started it but yeah, my 2011 with 185k sounded like that. -
Buying a used high mileage 2010 LR4
I just sold my 2011 with 185K for $7,000. Honestly he was the only call I had in over two weeks but tough to sell when you get near 200K miles - good luck with yours. -

Emotional buy alert - need help now!
For the record I have no concerns or issues with the diesel motor, have had several in my life previously so I’m a fan. it’s the normal Range Rover anxiety that has to do with the electronics quitting or not working, suspension faults, or other expensive items. Nothing new but we all know what...- wthammett

Thanks ggrupea, I’m still trying to work it. One of those trade in this, sell this on CL, add some cash and roll the chicken bones for a decision.- wthammett

Emotional buy alert - need help now!
I love you brother. I’m not hauling anything, more than likely less than 12k miles per year, a couple of good freeway trips from San Diego area to Monterey.- wthammett

Emotional buy alert - need help now!
Guys, currently in a LR4 that I love but time to move on. Came across a 2016 HSE td6, was not looking for this vehicle but here I am, face to face with this beautiful beast - someone tell me to run away or maybe take a closer look. Dark green color, black wheels, 65k miles asking price is $37k -...- wthammett

Your experience about LR4 V8 5.0
My man said it best, it's powerful but somehow feels light. Other than the coolant pipes and the 'click-click-click' sound upon start-up sometimes she's been great. One of the best cars and engines I've ever had - 185,000 miles as of today. -
Well crap!
Damn that ride looks good - makes me sick to think it just ****** you like that, sorry man. No value comment coming; I'm on the 'ride till you die' plan as someone earlier in the thread put it. Done the crossover pipes, water pump, plugs, O2 sensors, alternator and AC compressor between 150k -... -
Mityvac...
Mityvac is the ****, the LR4 was made for it - must have changed the oil on over 50 different cars in my lifetime and the LR4 is the easiest by far with the oil filter up top and the fill oil has the tube for extraction right there as well. You guys are just to **** with your 'you cant get all... -
3K oil change intervals for our LR4s?
**** that, every 10K with full synthetic, no problem at 183,000 miles :) -
Showoff Your LR4
Nice rides all, I tend to like the white LR4's with black wheels personally and is it me or are there a lot of Stornaway Grey models out there? This is my 2011 HSE LUX located here in Southern California. 183,000 miles and although I was going to give her up the wife and I said screw it, lets... -
LR4 Suspension over the bumps
Interesting as this is the opposite of my experience in my 2011 5.0 HSE - except the part about lower control arms or front wishbones as you call them. With 180,000 miles I've changed them twice already. I'm still rolling the OE wheels and tire size and honestly, she still rides great. I have a... -
Range Rover Sport Best Year? 2013?
I own an LR4 but have had a secret love affair with the RR Sport for some time - I agree the 2012/2013 model is my favorite. Recently saw a 2013 Sport Supercharged at a local Carmax in that dark red color with only 40K miles on it but without any documentation I didn't dare, but I wanted to so...- wthammett
