    Water leak after heavy rain in passenger footwell

    I went through it and it was extremely annoying. Had to bring it in 3 times. Finally they had to replace my entire interior roof linings and the entire drainage system. Tried to charge me $2,000+ for it and i flipped. Took it right to Corporate Land Rover who got involved and fixed it for free...

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    Thanks ycharlie. It did get fixed but what a story. I can not make this up. They held my beast for 4 days and the service guy called me to say that it would cost me $1.230 to fix this issue as they had to remove the entire headliner to replace the drainage system. I calmly told him that I am not...

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    Here we go again with the water leak. This is my 4th time (on this thread) bringing in the beast to the dealer with the same passenger side water problem. Had a good rain here last week and when i was driving i literally heard a river flowing back and forth from the roof. I said to myself..no no...

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    They said it was a faulty rear brake sensor. Possible i suppose. OR since the sensor never went off...maybe the tech guy thought since he was putting on new pads...he did not need to change it.

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    Sad I stopped going to 3rd party shops to avoid something like this. One month after getting all my brakes done at the dealership i start my beast this morning to this nice view. Either the service guy did not change the sensors (they had not gone off when i took it in a month ago but he told...

    Lr4 Brakes

    Ok..I am going to try... You know what....i think i am going to give the Oil DIY a try. I am going to go to your thread and read it over again and when i am due again in the summer i am going to give it a shot. $200 to give LR is crazy twice a year. I am sorry but i am not going to give the...

    Lr4 Brakes

    Very true. That would be me. LR MAN/NY would not service my brakes until i had OEM brakes pads installed. I brought some aftermarket pads. So when i went in for service they said my rotors were bad and it was because of my aftermarket pads and they told me i had to change the pads to OEM if i...

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    Ok..another update. 42,450 miles, had a 3 inch nail in the inside wall of the rear tire which means the tire is gone. So i was due for an Oil change (8k miles since the last) and my 45K service so i decided to be back to the scene of the robbery which is Manhattan Land Rover. One rear Wheel, 45k...

    Brake Pads and Rotors

    I am curious as well as people have owned the LR4 for almost 4 years now. I am wondering if aftermarket pads and rotors are the way to go or just keep going to the dealer for their nice expensive shiny one of a kind pads and rotor? I went the aftermarket route one time in my 4 years and it cost...

    On the subject of warranties

    I do not disagree with you. When he told me $500 i told him that is really high and then he shot me the salesman speech of the avg repair cost of a LR in the shop and regardless it is cheaper. He may be right but STILL this is a VERY high ded. Question...your warranty offer, did i miss that but...

    On the subject of warranties

    I asked the same question but unfortunately no it will not be any cheaper. It is $4,500 for 3 years. The guy was very informative with the info and concretely stated it is more of a value when your present warranty run out as i wanted to lock in the rate TODAY for fear of it going up next...

    On the subject of warranties

    I (2010 LR4 41K) was quoted $4500 for a Plat. package for 3 years that is very close to a new vehicle bumper to bumper warranty. Guy had me on the phone for 20 minutes trying to seal the deal. I told him i am going to go for it AFTER i look over the contract which i will only focus on what is...

    Lr4 Brakes

    Welcome to the land of the piss poor brakes & rotors life. They set us up good for this as no vehicle should have to replace rotors at 12k. They did the same thing to me. I am only averaging about 15k for pads and less than 30k for rotors. The only way to lessen this is to learn how to do it...

    Leaking roof

    I own a 2010 and i have had about 3 different leaks. The issues were the drain tubes from the roof and the tube from the air conditioner became unplugged and leaked into the passenger floor. Pain in the butt but the dealers fixed it...for now.

    LR4 2011 map update

    What i do when my GPS can not help me..i pull out my Google Maps from my Iphone and it comes right through my speakers sand is highly accurate. Between the 2 of them...i do fine. I do find that the map i have (2010) takes me out of the way at times and Google may be a bit better. Probably why...

    LR4 2011 map update

    $400 for a map upgrade. Insane. You plug it in and walk away and come back. $150 labor? I would love for anyone to share any significant reasons why to do this upgrade. WOW.

    Windsheild leak?

    The 3rd issue was the same one. I should have said the 3rd "time". Very annoying. I thought they were going to have to replace the headliner as well because it did turn a darker shade but it cleared up. Maybe they cleaned it. Who knows. I just hope it is resolved.

    Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!

    Believe it or not! Another water leakage issue. Same place. Noticed it after a long drive with the AC running so it led me to believe that it was related to that. Brought it into the dealership and they confirmed it was the drainage tube from the AC had dislodged. WOW. They fixed it before any...

    Windsheild leak?

    I have had water leaks in my 2010 3 times now. Been into service 3 times. They think they finally fixed it. Water pooled in the passenger foot area, above the pass visor and along the side roof above the pass side. They first said it was the drainage tubes on the roof of the vehicle and then...

    Lr4 Brakes

    You are so right. It sounds AWESOME! This is a no brainer for me. Question will the dealership give us any issues with swapping out our exhaust and air filters when it comes in for maintenance? Obviously they are not going to assist with any exhaust problems. I swapped out for after marker pads...
