Lr4 Brakes
Sorry, I actually just threw away the itemized receipt yesterday. Did not have a need to keep it, so in the trash it went. Basically, it was pads, rotors sensors, and some shop / labor charges. It's expensive, but what else can I do? I'm not doing it myself, and I shutter at letting a kid at... -

Lr4 Brakes
Just had my truck in for brakes (41K miles) and...... It was pretty painful. Total cost was $1700 and change (tax included). Was all new brake pads, and rotors all around. This is the first that any work was done on the front brakes, and the 2nd time for the rears. I got 22K miles out of... -

Lr4 Brakes
My experience We lease our vehicles, and rarely keep anything into or much over 50K miles. The only two vehicles I have had to have any brake work done (SUV's) have been the 07 BMW X5 and the 2010 LR4. The BMW in the low 40K miles, and the LR4 (rears at approx. 25K miles). The fronts are... -

Lr4 Brakes
Agreed, but..... After having a full size 2001 Yukon XL, a 2004 Lincoln Navigator, and an 07 BMW X5 as our family's last couple rounds of SUV's, I don't think the LR4 was / is more difficult or takes more time to stop then those vehicles. Maybe the BMW was a bit more quick to respond while... -

Lr4 Brakes
Been a while since I posted but..... I just felt I needed to follow up. After seeing more and more references to having to replace brakes more frequently, it's really got me wondering what the issue is. It must be driving styles, traffic patterns (jams, etc.)., and possibly towing habits... -

New Tires
Jim, yours were the Conti's? If so, you did very well on the 31K miles. My best friend had an 06 RRS that had the same tire (different size I think) and he ran the Conti's out at 20K. I know its very subjective to "type of use", but I like the comparisons, and hearing others experiences. So... -

New Tires
Had the Pirelli Scorpion Verde's installed on my LR4 (2010) this past June. Replaced the OEM's at about 26K miles. I really stretched the OEM's about 2K more then I should have, they were practically bald when I replaced them. The Pirelli's are MUCH better at just about everything, then the... -

Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!
Yikes! Been following this post for a while, and even given the fact that I've been skeptical of many of the reports about maintenance cost's, I have to admit, you've taken a beating (and I believe you!!!). My story is much similar to Mr. Horacioad's above. I took delivery of my 10 LR4 HSE... -

2 year service completed
Greeting fellow cheesehead! (just kidding!). I got my LR4 from Fields as well (Madison Branch). Like you, have been very happy with their service and support. Just trying to decide if we want to pick up an RR Sport (2013) or a Certified Used (thinking either 2011 or 2012) full size RR as the... -

2 year service completed
Just had my 2010 in last week for the same two year.... Service. I don't think they changed any wiper blades (at least I don't recall them telling me they did), and the cost at my WI based dealer was quoted at $700 plus tax, but my dealer had sent me a "coupon" card worth up to $1000 off any... -

Lr4 Brakes
Good for you! Glad to hear you believe everything that's written / posted on the internet! After all, if someone posted it, it must be true, right! Amazing, I never new every review was 100% accurate and truthful. Thanks for setting me straight! Lets just leave it at, "My vehicle has been... -

Lr4 Brakes
"Shortcomings of their investments"???? WOW!!! You sound a little like someone that may be here for a "smear campaign"? I leased my LR4 because I happened to have several friends that have owned / leased RRS's and LR3's over the past 5 years or so, and they have enjoyed near trouble free... -

Lr4 Brakes
I CALL BS! My dealer says the exact opposite and I have no issues with my wife's LR4 with over 19K miles on it. Breaks still look like new. Mostly in town driving, stop and go. No trailering, but we don't baby it either. Either you have another problem going on, or you're full of BS or your... -

Lr4 Brakes
Please Read!!!!!!!!!! Okay, here's the poop! THERE'S NO ISSUE! My wife's LR4 HSE LUX now has over 19000.00 miles, and the breaks and rotors look like NEW! I had to take it in to the dealer in June for it's one year physical, and the tech inspected my breaks and stated that they looked... -

Lr4 Brakes
Okay....so I just returned from the dealer where I had them...... Perform the first (15K) maintenance on my wife's LR4. I was hugely interested in seeing what they had to say about "brake wear", and low and behold the response went something like this: "Brakes are in fantastic condition... -

Lr4 Brakes
Lots of good info here! One quick question for you (purely out of my curiosity) is, "what should the wheels be torqued to"? I'm about to take my LR4 in to the dealer for it's first oil change, and I was going to have them rotate the wheels. It's be kind of cool (let alone smart) for me to... -

am I getting a good deal on an LR4?
Best of luck to you on the 17.5 MPG! When we baby the truck, we can get between 17 and 18 MPG (and I mean baby), and have even achieved near 20 MPG on a long trip to Northern WI last summer, but on avg. we get 14 MPG and that's about what anyone who mixes in Highway and in-town driving is going... -

am I getting a good deal on an LR4?
Deals seem to vary by region or city but in WI (Madison area) here's ...... What I was able to set up back at the end of July of last year. We picked up a 2010 HSE Lux (Black / Black) with the Entertainment Option which listed for about $61K at the time. It was just put into service by the... -

Required Service message
Just called my LR dealer to schedule service and they said..... That the "reminder" goes off to "begin the process of getting an appointment set up", but that the actual service that the pay for (first ones free) is the 15K miles (one year). When I asked about the potential issue with being... -

Required Service message
Exact same thing here....... We took delivery of our HSE Lux at the end of July, it was the service loaner with only 700 miles on it. They said it had been in service for only 3 or 4 weeks, and that the Sales Manager was driving when it wasn't used as a service loaner. About at 11,500 miles... -

latest LR4 comparison
Rob.....yes, it works well, and has a sport mode which lowers the vehicle and stiffens the suspension which I like, but it automatically switches back to "auto mode" when you turn the vehicle off. You can switch to "rock crawl" mode and it raises the vehicle with the air suspension system. You... -

latest LR4 comparison
We have both the 2010 LR4 HSE LUX and I also just picked up.... A 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with their new V6. It's a great vehicle, and I'm really impressed with all the "operator niceties" and especially the built in Garmin NAV interface. The vehicle is really so user friendly... -

Okay, first real problem with our 2010 LR4 Lux....
Voila! You are correct sir! Worked like a charm. My windows are now functioning perfectly again. Okay, now back to not really having any problems that I need to "run" to the dealer to have a once over. I've "been there, done that" with taking intermittent problems to auto dealerships only... -

Okay, first real problem with our 2010 LR4 Lux....
Actually, I spent about 5 minutes just trying to get one of those screws to punch through the hole before I gave up. It was about 5 degrees F in the garage while I was attempting it, but I eventually gave up thinking they really were over kill in the first place. My mats have been in place for...
