Need advice on possible front bumper hitch mount...
I have a 2008 LR3 HSE and I wanted to add a front hitch mount so that I can possibly attach a versahaul motorcycle carrier (max load 600lbs). Has anyone done this mod? If so, should I worry about the extra weight on the front of the truck (planning to tow my airstream at the same time) and... -

So cold outside....but toasty hands...
Woke up yesterday to a bone-chilling -29 F with a windchill of -40 F! Yikes! So glad I added a heated steering wheel to my 2008 LR3 HSE! Best MOD I ever did! Vince -

Finally Installed a Heated Steering Wheel In My 2008 LR3 HSE!
I finally did it! I successfully modified and installed a heated steering wheel into my 2008 LR3 HSE! This project took several weeks to do in total. Had to wait for several needed parts to arrive from Roverparts (eBay). By no means was this a cheap modification. But it was a lot of fun to... -

My New Snow Shoes
A couple of weeks ago, I stumbled upon a set of brand spankin' new 19" RRS wheels with scorpion snow and ice tires with TPMS on eBay. The seller bought them for his wife's 08' LR3 for Winter, but she unfortunately traded in her LR3 for a BMW X5 without having the opportunity to try the snow... -

Oil Change...
My dealer for my 2008 LR3 HSE told me that oil change interval on my truck is every 7.5K miles. My truck sits in my garage most of the the time (since I only use it during Winter and on weekends, but rarely). I do make sure that I run the engine and play with the high and low gears at least... -

Heated Steering Wheel
Ok, looking through the 2009 LR3 specs, it appears that you can get an optional heated steering wheel. :biggrin: I always wanted to get one for my 2008. I saw an OEM heated steering wheel on eBay that the seller admits to being wired for the heated function. But, he says that it doesn't... -

Heated Steering Wheel
Just out of curiousity, I noted that the 2009 RRS can be had with a heated steering wheel for a mere 100 bucks (based from the build option on their site. And I notice that the steering wheel is exactly the same one that is on the LR3. Would it be possible to replace the LR3's steering wheel... -

15K mile maintenance question...
Hello all, I have a 2008 LR3 HSE and will be reaching my 15K mark. My LandRover dealership is 120 miles away and it seems that it's really not worth driving there just for routine oil changes. Based on my going over the LandRover passport to service booklet, there are routine... -

Side mirror puddle lamps
While washing my LR3 today, I noticed that there's an outline on the underside of both side mirrors for puddle lamps. Has anyone thought of putting on RRS mirrors with puddle lamps for their LR3? If so, are harnesses for the lamps already built in? Just curious. Vince. -

How do I remove this?
Can anyone tell me how to remove this? It's the mat retention tabs for both driver and passenger. I don't want to just pull on it, fearing that I might break it. I ordered a weathertech mat for my LR3 and from what the website picture shows, there is no hole for this part to go into... -

Lazy Entry Mode Confusion
Ok, I turned on the Lazy Entry mode through the info menu. At first, I didn't really know what it did, but I turned it on anyway. Now, I don't quite know what activates it. I have the steering wheel control to AUTO. The seat and steering wheel would move after I pull the key out of the... -

My first 500 miles REVIEW
This is my first review of the 2008 LR3 HSE. It's been 500 miles (I got the truck on the 8th) and I truly love the LR3! It's heavy and thus feels very sure footed on slippery roads. I took it with my friend through the White Mountain National Forrest after a heavy snow storm and I didn't... -

Side assist steps
Hello everyone, Anyone personally added side steps to your LR3? If so, is it fairly simple (ie, no welding needed)? No drilling? Just nuts and bolts into pre-existing holes on the frame of the car? Thank you. Vince.:rolleyes: -

Body side moulding
Is there a way to order an LR3 body side moulding, similar (if not the same) to the one in a Land Rover catalogue online? My dealer is 2 hours away and I wanted to save some time driving just to put one on my 2008 LR3. Thanks. Vince.:smile: -

New to RWO
Hello everyone, I just got my very FIRST Land Rover yesterday. It's a 2008 LR3 HSE. What a machine! Looking forward to using it (but not abusing) off-road sometime in the Summer. Vince.
