Windshield leak?
Hello All, So about 6 months ago I had my windshield replaced. I got into the truck after a heavy rainstorm one afternoon a few weeks ago and found a soaked headliner. I had the shop back out (safelite through my insurance) and they checked it out. They said that the sealant wasn’t... -

Camber adjustment??
The photo is of a printout before and after the alignment. The top one has a lot of red but the bottom one only has the one red camber on the passenger front. Tight tolerance mode is designed to lock the suspension so that you can get a more accurate alignment completed. I’ve heard... -

Camber adjustment??
hello all. I went to get my six month alignment done. I had purchased the unlimited alignment package from firestone thinking that since I have an iid tool, and can put it into tight tolerance mode, it shouldn’t be much of a big deal. Anyway, below are the numbers that he came up with... -

Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?
When I picked the truck up i unfortunately was in a rush and didn’t have time to ask. I’m sure any of them can make the same sound as the driveline is what’s vibrating and they extend down the length of it. I would try to get it up on a lift to see. -

Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?
Turns out that it was a heat shield a little out of wack and vibrating at certain times. I had done the tsb for the transfer case weight prior to having it in the shop and up on the lift so I don’t know if that “helped” the situation or not. Hope this helps someone in the future -

Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?
In another thread Jaguardoc504 said that what I was describing sounded like the carrier bearing. I did some research and found a few videos of other cars with “failing” but not failed bearings that made the same noise. I got under the truck and moved the rear driveshaft around and there is... -

What did they do!!!
I hope that isn’t the case but I guess I will never know for sure. Buying it from a Porsche dealer with the Carfax report seemed legit but anything is possible -

Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?
It does make noise in all gears based on how hard I hit the gas. It is not speed related. Cruising around like of the highway is quiet. It’s only when I accelerate or I’m going up a steep incline causing the truck to work hard -

2013 LR4 - Weird Humming Noise
I went to harbor freight and for 11 bucks I bought a tapping bit set for a drill. The threads on the bolt are m 10 so you have to make sure you get that set (they also sell them on amazon cheap). It’s also beneficial to buy cutting fluid, but any type of lubricant or even soap would work I... -

Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?
Hope everyone is having a lovely holiday season. I mentioned in another thread that I purchased a 2010 with 41,000 miles on it. I didn’t notice during the test drive, but there is a whine/hum in the driveline. It is only there when I am in drive, and I either give her a decent amount of... -

What did they do!!!
I didn’t. I don’t really know how I missed it but that’s in the past. It’s rather low (although now that I hear it, it’s as loud as a freight train in my mind) and it isn’t in conjunction with shifts ... it happens with rpm. I’m going to service the transfer case and the diffs soon to see... -

What did they do!!!
So after a long journey I have an update. The shop owner was agreeable to take a look at the truck and see what could be done. However right before I took it in a spoke to a “friend of a friend” who had their daughter’s tranny rebuilt by the company. It was a 2002 VW Passat. Within a... -

2013 LR4 - Weird Humming Noise
Has anyone actually done this themselves? I bought the parts got all set up to install it and noticed that I have the hole for the bolt but mine isn’t threaded. It’s just a smooth tube. What the hell am I supposed to do now? -

What did they do!!!
Alright guys so here is an update on everything. The original shop is willing to take it in and give it a once over this upcoming Monday. Of course, at this point, I have very little faith in them, and I’ve been really beat up about the whole thing. It has gotten me to the point where I... -

What did they do!!!
So after a few days I got a call from the tech I brought the truck to and he says his boss doesn’t want to get involved so they can’t do anything for me. He did give me the codes that the tranny put out which are P0826 and P2700. When I got to the shop this afternoon, I decided to drive it... -

What did they do!!!
So I called the shop at the end of the day and they didn’t have updates. They became far busier than they thought and didn’t have time for it. I will keep you posted. No-pistons, was your truck showing any signs of things going south? I’m trying to figure this thing out logically and I... -

What did they do!!!
Frank8, that’s what I am trying to figure out. I don’t know what he did or could have done. All I know is the truck was driving fine when I bring it in and when I drive it home it’s not. To make matters worse, as opposed to trying to help, the guy is reluctant to do anything and says... -

What did they do!!!
Thanks to everyone’s responses. Hopefully I can work through this without it costing more than the truck is worth. Anyway, Here is the update: Since leaving the shop I have kept the truck in my driveway trying to figure out my next move. I called a friend’s attorney for advice and he said... -

What did they do!!!
I believe he used Rowe 9006 which according to some is an equivalent. I told him to use Lifeguard when I dropped it off and he wrote life guard 9006 @$11 a qt on the receipt so I believe this is the stuff... -

What did they do!!!
I’m going to go back on Monday and have it looked at. As you probably know, I didn’t get very much sleep last night. I did a lot of research on in bed on my phone like a kid reading a Harry Potter book, including analyzing my invoice. I specified before the work to use “lifeguard” fluid... -

What did they do!!!
It wasn’t a dealer, just a reputable tranny shop in my area. Had it in to change the pan/filter/fluid because I didn’t want to be on my back, in the cold, in my driveway doing it. To give a backstory, in late August I towed my boat on a 7 hour journey. Toward the tail end of the trip I was... -

What did they do!!!
So I posted that I was having my truck in for a transmission service because I have a low sounding whine somewhere and the truck has 99,000 miles. The guy told me that the fluid didn’t look good and that there was a lot of debris on the pan magnets. He showed me the old pan and sure enough... -

Tires rotation pattern
Hope everyone had a lovely thanksgiving. So, what’s the best for a LR4... cross all four or rearward cross? I’m going on for an alignment today and I want them to rotate the tires beforehand. -

How to replace smaller drive belt
Hello all, So I think I’ve tracked down the source of my whining noise. It sounds like it is coming from the smaller drive belt or the wheel that it attaches to that holds the fan on. Here is where I am stuck ... there is no tentioner on that belt so how the heck do I get the new one... -

LR4 Tailgate Chirp Sound
I fixed the chirp sound on my truck but still have the “clunk” when I go over a large pothole or something. I’m assuming this is normal given the makeup of the spit tailgate but I’m not sure. What I did was grease the black rubber wedges on the sides of the jambs when the upper tail gate was...
