    2007 LR3 HSE garage door programming

    Well its been awhile. I gave up on the LR3 and garage doors. We moved to new house and I decided to try it again. Its WORKS! With newer openers its a 2 step process. For what ever reason I either skipped that step or did not hold buttons long enough. I just quit and used the remote that...

    Rear wiper issue

    I fixed it. Called a LR dealship and got some instructions. Was EZ. The rear wiper was below the glass and I could move it freely with my hand. If I put it where it should be it gravity would just drop it down 30 degrees or so. The fix was to remove that black cap and then put a...

    Rear wiper issues, any thoughts?

    I had the wiper droop from a carwash. The rear wiper was below the glass and I could move it freely with my hand. If I put it where it should be it gravity would just drop it down 30 degrees or so. The fix was to remove that black cap and then put a socket on the bolt. I put the wiper...

    Rear wiper issue

    After going through a car wash I noticed my rear wiper was pointed down, it was on the painted part of the rear gate. When I grab it I can rotate it freely, I could feel no centering lock to put it where it should be. I put it where it should be but after I use it, it seems to creep to...

    Driver side door wont lock

    Over the past few days the alarm has been going off when I opened my door. At first I thought I forgot to lock the door. But I had been locking the doors, just the drivers side door does not lock. The LR3 thinks its locked as the alarm sounds when I open it. When I push the key or...

    Considering an LR3. Again.

    Funny that is one of the reasons I did not get a LR4, I don't like that they integrated the wheel flare into the body. The LR3s plastic wheel flare may fade some but if you hit something or someone hits you (Door Denters) Its body work. The plastic wheel flare on the LR3 is tougher...

    Winter tire advice needed

    What do I want? Studs are illegal in my area so will have to be studless. With a 6000lb vehicle stopping power on ice is preferred. Right now I have Perreli Zeros 19" and they do fine in terms of getting through snow but have had a few instances where I slide past an intersection due to icy...

    LR3/LR4 or the Range Rover off road?

    That does not mean much. I went driving with a couple of RR in my LR3 with Perreli zeros. They both got stuck where I got through. Had nothing to do with the vehicles. Sometimes the driver does make a difference. I am much more aggressive than they are, I use momentum to my advantage...

    Winter tire advice needed

    What about The Michelin X-Ice Xi3? It sounds even better on wet roads. The more expensive Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 (Est. $160) winter tire runs neck-and-neck with the Michelin in Scandinavian reviews and one top U.S. test on ice and snow. The Nokian doesn't grip as well on wet and dry roads...

    Winter tire advice needed

    Thanks for information. Yes I can get them in either 18" or 19" in the proper size. Care to elaborate on the performance of Nokian Hakkapeliita R2? How long do they last? I won't be driving on pure snow all the time. And might be towing snowmobiles or possibly my boat in the spring...

    Winter tire advice needed

    My choices were Blizzak, Perreli ICE/Snow, and one other I can't remember. From the reviews I read only the people with blizzaks raved about them on ice and snow. Saying they could not even do power slides with them. Like they were glue on ice. Perrelis come in correct size but did not...

    Most fun I've had driving int he snow in a while

    No its cool, I must be pretty dull. I just go with what works, don't really love any of the companies. Michelins use to be great in terms of strong sidewalls. But that was 20 years ago, I am a bit out of touch on them now. Do you know much about SL vs XL tires? Trying to get...

    Winter tire advice needed

    I want to get new rims for winter and a set of blizzaks. Sound like the best snows for the landrovers. One issue is I can't find XL rated BLizzaks for 19" or 18" rims. The tires that are 30" or taller are SL rated. 44psi max vs 50 psi max. It does not list how many plys there are so not...

    Winter tire advice needed

    You have some brains. I would do the same if I lived there. In michigan I'm thinking of just getting 4 new rims and swapping to those snows you have in december-april then go back to the Scorpian zeros for summer time.

    Ball mount with 1.5 inch rise class III

    I can't seem to find a ball hitch that is 8-9 inch long with a 1.5 inch rise. I have a 2 inch rise that is a little high for my boat. It works but I noticed a little bit of fish tailing as its tongue light on bumps. 1.5 inch rise would be about perfect but I may have to settle for 1 inch...

    17" Wheels - How I got them on my LR3

    Nice Job! I did not understand why you got these. Is there something you can't do with 18 inch rims that the 17 inch rims do? Aside from a softer ride. I guess if you do a ton of real offroading they might be better. My HSE with 19s does fine offroading but maybe less able to absorb...

    Tire pressure LR3 HSE 19 Perreli Zeros

    I just looked at that sticker and mine said Front 33 PSI cold Rear 42 PSI cold. A mechanic on another forum has a post that said run 38 all around to get the most from your tires. Meaning if you don't want them to wear out fast. Saying 33 too low in front. 42 in the rear assumes the truck...

    Tire pressure LR3 HSE 19 Perreli Zeros

    I'm not sure what tire pressure to use with my LR3 HSE. It has 19 inch rims with Perreli Zeros. The tires say max psi 50. I'll be pulling a 17 foot I/O 4 winns boat. Is higher better for towing? I set the auto psi meter to 38 at the gas station for all 4. Is that ok? Any help is...

    LR3 slight differential noise normal?

    Thanks for the information. Just wondering why a beefy truck would have so many issues with differentials. My Explorer and other cars I've owned in past 30 years have never had that sort of issue. Must be some kind of engineering error for so many to have noise. I mean sure a cheap...

    LR3 slight differential noise normal?

    So is new fluid the cure for noise in the differential? Does that mean its run dry or something?

    LR3 slight differential noise normal?

    Thanks anything I can bring to my mechanic the better. I took another look at the dealers records on the car. I found this passage in one of the repair pages. I see he had both front hub and bearings replaced and it said topped off all fluids and lubed. Its said "customer advised...

    2007 LR3 radio options

    I can live with it as is, just was asking since its new to me. I might get the 2012 DVD GPS disk, ive seen them for 50.00 online. 200.00 is a bit much when you consider what an iphone 5 can do with a free GPS app. That stereo is actually very nice. Good power, nice speakers. That...

    LR3 slight differential noise normal?

    Oh thanks ! Is this a job for a LR dealer only? I have a mechanic thats honest and does good work. He is close by vs 70 miles to LR dealer.

    LR3 slight differential noise normal?

    It has 80k on it. In another post I think you said when it hits 90k maybe change all the fluids. I dunno about differentials are they bathed in oil or just lubed? I guess if the level where low might explain some noise.
