    LR4 Roof Rack Question(s)

    Thanks! (sorry a little late) How many skis can you get on that setup.. I usually travel with 3-4 pairs of skis and atleast one snowboard. I'm wondering if I should get a ski box or the setup that you used in this example.

    Engine Vibration

    Can you provide more details on the vibration noise? I hear a vibrating noise in my '12 LR4 (5L v8, about 30K miles) that sounds like it comes from the gearbox area, and to me it sounds like loose plastic vibrating at a high frequency. Taken it to the shop and they can't figure it out either..

    Leaking roof

    Roof leak issues - LR4 I have experienced a similar issue with my 2012 LR4. They said a plug was "kinked" thus reversing the flow of water, allowing it to pool and run in to interior of the vehicle. I'm not sure what caused the kink, and I'm worried that it could become blocked/kinked again...

    Slow Nav

    More than likely it's as good as it gets. In my case they installed an update on my car (a 2012 LR4) about a 1.5 months ago when I complained about the laggy interface and varying fuel indicator readings while going uphill and downhill (that issue still persists). If anything, give them a...

    Slow Nav

    Try going to the dealer and have them update the software on your vehicle, I had them do it to my LR4 and I feel like it's much more responsive.. (although it might be my clouded imagination) Sometimes I feel like I'm in an abusive relationship.. :albertein

    I'm looking to add rails and ski/snowboard mounts to my 2012 LR4. Anyone out there recommend how to go about this? It says you need the rails and the crossbar to mount anything on, but wouldn't the cross bars for the ski/snowboard mounts double for the OEM crossbars? Either way I'd like to...

    Advice on purchase of LR4

    You should read the posts on the v8 - apparently it's very reliable. I'm still trying to figure out the navigation which I'm not 100% comfortable with yet, and I'm still looking out for some electronic issues with the dashboard lcd. But so far so good (knock on wood). This definitely isn't...

    Where would be a good place for me to ask questions re ave price paid on new lr4s? Trying to figure out if should get 2012, 2013 or wait for the 2014 (and is there any non-speculative news on the 2014 model specs?) Seems like everyone's happy with the v8? Thanks!
