    Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved

    My 06 LR3 has been acting up; all faults come up and then go away. I already replaced my battery. The weird thing is the faults always come up when the car is sitting in the hot sun. When I start the car, the faults come up and prevent the car from starting. It's only when the car cools down...

    Battery voltages

    I started my own post a few weeks ago and want to chime in here... I too had issues with my LR3 and I suspected my battery and/or alternator. Brought it to my local Interstate Battery retail shop and had them check it. Everything checked fine but I was still getting dash board errors and car...

    Issues with my 2006 LR3

    Finally got a brand new Interstate Battery MTP-49/H8, the recommended size. Interestingly, the one that I had was the smaller Interstate Battery MTP-H7. This battery was given to me 2-3yrs ago as a warranty replacement at my dealership. Just wondering if the dealership gave me the wrong...

    Should I replace it with Interstate Battery again, the oem choice? Is there another recommended brand? People are recommending anything over 800cca but the oem battery is only 720cca...

    Recently, my LR3 has been getting all the faults appear on my dash. System fault, HDC fault, Suspension fault, hazard lights are on, Service engine light is on, etc. This happens when I start the car after having it sit for 3-5 days. I noticed that my air suspension lowers during this time...

    Installed 4 New Michelin Latitude Tour HP

    thanks for the replys. definitely not taking my cars back to them. The Latitude is indeed non-directional so my concern is unwarranted. The times I driven on these tires I'm kicking myself why I didn't get these tires earlier. Quiet and smooth. Makes the LR3 feel like a new car again...

    Installed 4 New Michelin Latitude Tour HP

    I just had 4 new Latitude Tour HPs installed on my LR3 HSE. Huge difference from oem Goodyear tires. They are so quiet and smooth. Worth every penny. However, my local shop where I normally go for service for my beater cars took forever to start installing these tires. First off, they...

    The leather of my front driver seat is stretched or loose from the right arm of the headrest. I've noticed that for about a year now. Since my warrenty is about to expire next year, I brought it up to my service advisor. This stretch in the leather is causing a quarter size hole right by the...

    Michelin Syndrome or Michelin Latitude tires

    I was told by Costco tireshop that it was recommended that I get the Michelin Latitude 19" tire over the Syncrone because the Latitude has a load range of XL. The Syncrone does not. Is this true? I've been reading more about the Syncrone tires, however. Everyone seem to like them. Any...

    Bike Rack for Tow Hitch

    This may be a dumb question but what do I need to hook up a bike rack to the tow hitch. I have a 2006 LR3 HSE, which I believe have the tow hitch. Do I need a receiver too and then whatever bike rack I want? I'm planning on getting a yakima bike rack. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Tire selections 19"

    brought it in for service and discovered the noise and vibration was due to the alignment issue which fell under a known TSB. The dealer did a free alignment to fix this problem but was not able to get me new set of tires. They reached out to their district service rep and was told they are...

    Tire selections 19"

    i have about 23,000 miles on my oem tires. I may bring in my car for service to have them check the cause of the noise. It's like a helicopter propeller sound at times when I coast less than 10 miles. Feels like maybe something is preventing the wheels from rolling smoothly.

    Tire selections 19"

    My car is about 2 years old now and it's driving a little noisier than before. Is that normal? When I drive or coast at low speed, is just noisy. Is that the tires? Can it be the brakes? I don't think so since I'm not braking. Any help is appeciated. I have stock Goodyear tires. Should...

    Big Rock Chip on Hood

    I have a silver lr3... I may call my wheel refinisher guy take a look. He's good at painting by airbrushing. Maybe he can blend the paint good. Wish me luck!

    Fuel Injection Service & 4 Wheel Brake Fluid Flush

    Went into the dealership to fix the broken plastic latch to raise the 3rd row seat. This was under warranty but was advised to do a fuel injection service and 4 wheel brake fluid flush since I have 18K miles on my 2006 LR3. 15k is the recommended mileage to do so. I only stated that my brakes...

    Planning on getting a Yakima cargo box for the roof. Wondering what size would be best for me. Don't want a big box nor a small box. Yakima has a 12, 16, 18, and 21 cargo gear boxes. Should I get the 16 then? What is the most common size for the LR3? Thanks for any help...
