    Rear two sunroofs - purple?

    Mine is weird. When I am in the car (outside in the sun) their is definitely a purple tint... Of all things my 4 year old noticed it. She said daddy, can we get purple glass (her favorite color) on my windows in my room just like in the Land Rover.... !! My wife said I almost crapped myself...

    Rear two sunroofs - purple?

    Does everyone else have a purple tint on the inside of their back two sunroofs? ?? I know, dumb question, but it seems dopey, and I am hoping it is just a protective film I can pull off !!

    My remote doesn´t work

    Thor, why is that key not covered under warrenty. From my point of view, you would think it is an integral part in actually opening the car (unless you have to keep using the manual entry feature under the door handle), as well as, using the safety features that the key comes with and LR...

    Avon Tyre update

    No no rubbing,,, even in access mode going over speed bumps in the parking garage and on the sharp turns it is ok (a good test). Those damn square rims!! I am not sure what is funnier, me hearing from the region service manager that my vibration is from trapped resonance in the air...

    Avon Tyre update

    Sorry, should have been specific. Rim size is the stock 18 inch rim. The tire size is up one, a 265 60 18. Just wanted a stock replacement tire as my wife does a majority of the driving and did not want to get too big or aggresive with the tread pattern. I wanted to get the goodyears off of...

    Avon Tyre update

    Well, have logged 2,345 miles on the Avon Tyres (I spell it cool:) and so far so good. Even though my truck still vibrates to an annoying level it is not the tyres. Over the vibration (It just occured to me why my wife likes driving the truck and I do not !!) I can feel the road well, and the...

    Avon Tires

    I checked the occillating dampers, mine are not rubber, but definitelly a metal composite of some sort, seam they would be heavy as hell. They do sway front to back an inch or so. Are yours rubber nwoods? Oh yeah, with the exepdition rack installed now. I will start taking bets on how...

    Avon Tires

    thanks for the replies, I am going to look at both tomorrow. I was wondering what those two things in the back were when I was checking my receiver hook up. Also will look into the sway bar, but not sure if that would cause such a rythmic wobble like the one I am getting. Funny, I had the...

    Avon Tires

    Not a wander, but a wobble. The rut-grab has gone away with the new tires, but the wobble is still there. It is felt through the car and mostly in the gas peddle. If that makes any sense. For craps and giggles, I put it in neutral today on the highway to see if it would go away (kind of...

    Avon Tires

    Well, had the Avon's put on today. 265/60/18 is the sixe I went with. A little more size to them, and the ride is pretty good, much better than the Goodyears. Little stiffer response, but bumps are more evident (shich is fine, as I like bumps !! :)).. Still have th minor wobble in the car...

    Avon Tires

    what I want to do is move up to a bigger size with these. Say to 265's for a slightly larger patch, but can this create a problem with side wall flex?

    Avon Tires

    Not many people mention the Avon Tires. I want to replace my Goodyears now and do not want to spend all that much. The Avon tires seem pretty good and are not that expensive. Any reasons for or against?

    tires weights for balancing

    Should a brand new car off the lot have tire weights on the inside of the rim as well as the outside if the wheels have were only balanced at the factory? Reason I am asking is my dealer claimed to have put new rims and tires on my car (off of a car that was in the lot and and had 6 miles on...

    Rear Wiper Squeak

    Turn on the wiper, get out of the car, and go to back to see if noise is from the glass or from the motor area. If it is the rubber, give the blade a little cleaning with an alcohol pad, if it is the motor area, it may go away, but better to just bring it up at the dealer.

    A Bar Loose

    Same thing on my end. They did not install the cross pieces, but I did not realize it until I got home, looked in the back of the truck, and saw a bag with the "leftover" pieces in ir, which included the crosspieces. Had them install and is all set now. Still, it is kind of a flimsy set up...

    At WITS end !

    Ok folks, thanks for the replies and good advice. Will let everyone know how I make out. It just bugs the crap out of me that these guys look you straight in the eye and say "what wobble"... Now my wife saying that to me is a different story !!! BTW, aired down and still wobbled, but did...

    At WITS end !

    may be the same thing though, just not sure,, was your wobble a constant? I am thinking of airing down to sand crawling levels and drive on the pavement to see what happens, then maybe airing up again. I think the dealer messing with my E-Brake was BS... They propably know it is the tires but...

    At WITS end !

    Well, have had my LR3 SE for 3 weeks now and it has been in the shop 10 days. I need help, both mentally and LandRoverly... Beside the usual seat issue (floating, wiggle in the drivers seat), I am experiencing a constant wobble while driving. Here are the steps that the dealer took (pretty...

    LR Mounting Brackets for non OEM foglights

    Any info on the LR3 fog light mounting brackets? It seems cheaper to buy the mounting brackets from LR and then buy some PIAA's or Hella's and mount them to the brackets. One question is will most aftermarket lights fit thos OEM LR mounting brackets? Any help appreciated.
