FS: 2013 LR4 HSE Lux, 225K miles, $10k - SoCal
Hi everyone, I am selling my 2013 LR4 HSE Lux (7 seater version) in Firenze red with Arabica interior and Black exterior pack. Anyone interested in a high mileage but well maintained LR4 with the last great V8 made for this wonderful vehicle, give me a holler. I factory ordered back in 2013 with... -
Signing off
My new Defender 110 is finally here... OK, not quite in my garage, but it arrived at my local dealer today and is awaiting my pickup... if I weren't away for the long weekend, it WOULD be in my garage tonight. It took 7 months of waiting since I placed my order, only slightly less than a full... -
PSA - Herbor Freight jack stands recall
Harbor Freight, sorry... Figured some of you may have these in your garage. I have a couple of the 6-ton models myself (although they turned out to be a different item #, so not subject to the recall): https://images.harborfreight.com/hftweb/recalls/Jack-Stand-Recall-56371_61196_61197.pdf -

Lucky 8 plays around with some promising off-road mods
Finally, FINALLY someone has quit the incessant whining, bitching and moaning about the looks of the new Disco, and instead started thinking up and applying useful mods for off-roading it instead. Kudos to Lucky8, they have already proven that a set of 18" wheels (albeit steelies), chunky tires...- umbertob

What do you think, new bushings needed?
Lol. My front sway bar bushings have seen better days... They weren't even that noisy, considering how destroyed they are. This was my second set, lasted me about 90K miles.I am still on the original bushings in the rear (132K miles currently.) -
Atturo Trail Blade MT 255/55R19
Just saw this one advertised in the premiere issue of Alloy + Grit magazine, thought I'd throw the link over on the forum as it is a fairly aggressive looking All Terrain / Mud Terrain hybrid choice for those with 19" wheels that I don't think has been discussed yet. It's not a LT tire in that... -
Saturday project - Sway bar link replacement
While off-roading over a rock garden in Big Bear a few days ago, a sharp rock must have jumped up behind my front driver's side wheel, and despite all my underbody armor I managed to bend and break the sway bar link, which is surprisingly vulnerable. Pretty sure it happened somewhere here... -
Micro-Start XP-10 jump starter - Tested, it works great
I purchased a Micro-Start XP10 jump starter and personal power supply (about $125/150 online, available from several retailers and on eBay) based on the recommendation of a nearby shop. I didn't realize how tiny this device was until UPS delivered it, so I was bit skeptical about its... -
New dash cam
After 6 years of valiant service, last week my Cowon AC-1 auto capsule (a by-now ancient dash cam) finally bit the dust, I guess 6 years recording non stop in a hot cabin eventually took their toll. So I decided to "demote" my front windshield dash cam (a Blackvue DR500GW-HD) to the rear window... -
Surround cameras trubleshooting - Special Svc Msg
Posting this SSM for future reference as it shows location and detailed connections of the 5 surround cameras to the Image Processing Control Module (located under the driver's seat) for DIY troubleshooting of malfunctioning cameras with a diagnostics tool. This only applies to owners with... -
Take a wild guess..
How much is my insurance going to cough up to pay for this? Rear ended someone on the freeway on Sunday in a 3-car collision (I guess the good news is is that nobody rear ended me...) Luckily nobody was injured in either my car or the Toyota Tundra full size pickup truck I struck - I had my... -
Who is the lucky owner?
LOL, a whole recall issued for two cars... Didn't even think that was possible. Anyway, hopefully nobody here. Sounds pretty serious. -
Trip computer
Does this happen to you? Distance to Empty has got some real bad news for you... but there is still plenty of gas in the tank, it's not even in Reserve yet. In this day and age, the electronics should be smarter than this, no? It didn't reset on the next ignition recycle either, it kept saying I... -
Steering wheel gone wild
Al day for the past couple of days most of my steering wheel switches and buttons were completely messed up. Voice recognition button would not work at all, the phone hang up button would dial out when pressed, the phone answer/dial button would turn volume down, the volume up button would... -

Safety Recall P050 - Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Check the VIN range, many late build 2013s and 2014s should be affected (mine is an early build 2013 and not included in the recall.) Note that MY13s affected will also require replacement of all wheel sensors, MY14s only a reconfiguration of the TPMS software. Link... -

Navigation update
Just thought I'd mention that I performed the 2015 Navigation Data update on my 2013. The required USB stick just became available on HERE's - formerly known as Navteq - web site for $200. Other than updated POIs and streets / maps, no changes to report. I was kinda hoping the update would get... -
NAS Recall P39 - 2010-2013 Emissions / Engine Malfunction Lamp illuminated
This fairly obscure recall popped up on TopiX a couple of days ago, if you own a 2010-13, chances are you are affected. Check your VIN with the indicated range to make sure. Like all recalls, you are likely to receive a notice from your dealer in the mail about it, and the service will be... -
Last warranty service - Report
Took my 2013 LR4 for one last checkup before my warranty goes buh-bye (46K miles... I drive a lot.) Good thing I didn't wait: - Q361 campaign applied (the heated windshield fuses thing); - I told them during my last oil change I thought I saw the area around the water pump leaking coolant... -
2013 key fob delaminating
FYI. This is the condition of my 2013's fob this morning: Happened pretty much overnight (or I didn't notice it until today), it felt a bit funny when I put it in my pocket this morning. Everything still works. Warranty should cover it per TSB # LTB00631NAS2 - Compact Key Handset -... -
Manual Service Reset MY14+
Captured on TopiX today. Thought this might be useful to future owners doing their own service / oil changes. Unfortunately, there is no such manual procedure in place for earlier model years - still need to use diagnostics. Excerpt from the shop manual: -
