    Free parts for locals

    Anyone (relatively) local to Clarksville, TN 37040? I have a bunch of leftover LR4 parts that interchange to the SCV6 in the Discovery 5. https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/leftover-2015-lr4-parts.42929/page-3 There are prices listed, but, if you can pick up, you can have them.

    Anyone close? Free parts

    My old LR4 parts are just taking up space. I'm too busy / lazy to list on ebay, letgo, craigslist, etc. Anyone (relatively) local want to come pick up some free LR4 parts? I obviously won't use them. https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/leftover-2015-lr4-parts.42929/page-3 Clarksville, TN...

    New owner is selling my old LR4

    Good evening land Rover family. The new owner of my LR4 messaged me and asked if I wanted to buy it back. My wife will **** me if I buy back my mistress, so I told him to post it on auto trader, take it to a LR dealer to take advantage of the used car market, and that I would post on here for...

    Leftover 2015 LR4 Parts

    As most of you know, I traded in my 2015 LR4 LUX and have quite a few leftover parts. The new owner has the first right of refusal for a couple of items, but I have annotated them appropriately below. I am located in Clarksville, TN 37040 for those that wish to pick up items, and for the larger...

    Farewell

    To my Forum Family, It's been a great couple of years, but I must say farewell. We traded in my LR4 last night as we continue to prioritize what is important to us. I am sure that it will be missed, but it hasn't sunk in yet. I want to thank everyone for your knowledge, patience, and...

    Anyone own a Power Wagon

    We traded in my wife's Ram 1500 a few years ago and she still misses it. I'm thinking that a power wagon may be a logical replacement with some of its off-road goodies (albeit much larger size). Does anyone have any personal experience with power wagons? Likes, dislikes, regrets, etc? Thank you!

    How to: Replace Humidity Sensor.

    I received B13C2-86 and B13C2-96, both referring to the windshield misting sensor. From what I understand, this little bugger controls the activation of the a.c. compressor to maintain a set humidity within the cabin. Step 1. Order part number LR058011 (MY14-16) Step 2. Locate the humidity...

    MAF sensor and O2 sensor bad?

    I had a little time this morning before work and thought I would troubleshoot an annoying idle issue (bogs slightly when coming to a stop, and occasionally will vibrate the steering wheel when parked). Using my handy iid tool to log live values, this what I see: I can lack common sense...

    Tax return plans?

    I live vicariously through our forum members. Anyone have big plans for their tax returns? I am stalking an ARB front bumper and associated accessories, but I should probably buy the materials to build the back deck, terraces, and garden boxes that my wife wants.

    DMTL pump or leaking fuel filter (dust cover)

    After checking my transmission fluid level and shutting off the vehicle, I thought I would finally check out whatever has been running under the rear of the truck. Using my poor man's automotive stethoscope (long pry bar to my ear), I found that the DMTL pump is continuing to run for about 2-3...

    Transmission crud on pan magnets

    Evening land rover support group. I posted this question in the "what I did today" thread, but I'm sure it got buried. Any concern with the amount of transmission gunk found on my pan magnets? ~70k Thanks, everyone

    FYI: SCV6 cylinder numbering

    I found this the other day on Topix and meant to post it earlier. When I did need it, I could not find it on Google. Basically, the SCV6 does not follow conventional even and odd banks---passenger-side being 1, 3, 5; and driver side being 2, 4, 6. Hopefully, this helps someone to better...

    Perplexed- heated windshield and steering wheel inop

    New bout of LR fun. After my traxide install, and associated removal of start stop goodies, my heated windshield and steering wheel do not work. The lights turn on when activated and the fuses are still intact, but no windshield defrosting, nor toasty hands. I am thinking relay; ground behind...

    2014-2016 Traxide Dual Battery Kit Lessons Learned

    I have been slowly installing my traxide kit over the last couple of days. 1) The kit is solid, well constructed, and I am excited to finish the install. 2) the instructions are great, but better suited for the earlier models and does not take into account the stock, two-battery system. Only...

    Repeatable Vibration Issues

    So, I am getting vibration in the steering wheel. Sometimes it starts around 30mph, but most certainly appears at 50mph and does not go away. If I put the transmission in neutral, the vibration stays--speed dependent and not RPM dependent. However, I do not feel it while accelerating. This did...

    Metal idler pulley

    I saw @Fuji4 talked about a metal idler pulley in his super charger thread. For anyone that is interested, British parts of Utah offers one. I would get it, but I have other repairs to make. Enjoy! https://www.ebay.com/itm/253948829265

    Fan clutch

    Thinking that my cooling fan assembly needs to be replaced. I scoured Google and the forums but have not found a definitive answer on my problem. Without all of the other harmonic symptoms, what would the experts say if the fan only moves about 1"-2" (when vehicle has sat overnight) and I try...

    Front sway bar bushings

    This weekend was front suspension refresh-palooza. I still have a couple of pieces to replace but had a question about the sway bar bushings. I'm good with the replacement procedure except for unloading the sway bar. After I finish swapping the passenger side bits, I plan to attack this with...

    How to: Supercharger Removal, Rear Crossover, and Passenger Valve Cover

    I thought I would start a thread to document my shenanigans over the last week. Hopefully, it can help someone else as they wrench on their pride and joy. As a disclaimer, I did not take pics of everything, and I will ask questions of the group to better understand what is going on...

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    Just finished replacing the rear diff pinion seal (it was leaking), the drive shaft (carrier bearing shot), and the rear diff breather (filter did not exist). Just thought I would post in case anyone had any questions. I was on a time crunch and could not take pictures, but would be more than...

    Aluminum crossover pipe

    Was trolling the jaguar forums, planning my supercharger removal, and found out that the 5.0 SC XFR had an aluminum crossover pipe. Has anyone tried to fit this on the 5.0 LR4? I found the top piece on eBay, but the bottom "y" is aluminum as well--evidently they are hard to find...

    Rijidij Rear Tire Carrier

    Since I finally got the fuel issue sorted, I finally installed my rear tire carrier. It fits pretty tight to the body, but with enough room for recovery gear to mount From the rear, you can see that it sits pretty high, but that is to ensure that it does not interfere with the backup...

    Yay! I get to replace the rear diff pinion seal

    Finally had a long weekend to catch up on rover maintenance. As I was flushing my brake lines, I noticed some diff fluid droplets on my rear locker. Upon further inspection, and with a heavy dose of Google searching, it looks like the pinion seal is leaking. Once I get my fluid on...
