    Forum Name - LR3/LR4?

    Reading the post on accessories made me think that this forum should mature into something known as the LR3/LR4 forum since the car is basically the same model with a midlife update (albeit in a more substantive manner than typical). Mr. Moderator?

    Totally OT: need a '01 325i?

    S.E. MI car engineer buddy selling wife's original owner 01 BMW 325i, compulsively maintained with OEM parts, in surprisingly excellent shape for its age and mileage. Drives tight, no rattles. No wavy sides, shiny inside and out and real a good looker. Good, safe car for college-bound...

    Confessional

    Brothers and sisters, we no longer own the LR3 as of earlier last month. It's a great vehicle that we truly miss quite a bit, but that we needed to move past at this point. If the winter tires on dedicated rims that I'm already setting up for the Odyssey fail to impress Mrs. Mustbeaudi...

    Values UP

    FWIW, wholesale auction values of used 2006 and 2007 have not been so high in a while. There are 47 LR3 to be sold here at Manheim's location near me in Detroit on July 2, and the recent historical sales prices strike me as pretty high. Maybe this is because gas prices are still low (for now)...

    Did I mention? Got plenty of pictures now, if needed.

    I'll pay a referral fee to any member who finds me a buyer. Do your friend a favor, set them up in this honey of an HSE for about the same cost as the SE. They'll appreciate all the extras, just as we do. Thanks, J. http://forums.landroverworld.org/showthread.php?t=15073

    totally OT - bike off-wall or hydraulic stand recommendations for narrow garage

    I started a thread on quattroworld.com, and I wonder what advice folks here have to add: see this one for ideas already raised - ha,ha. http://forums.quattroworld.com/allroad/threads/472.phtml#3914

    PSA on tires

    We're running 19" Toyo Open Country HT for our strictly on-road use, and they're quiet and comfortable with predictable handling. Winter use was fine, with my wife enjoying the choice of avoiding really bad conditions that I must deal with for work and we never felt worried about...

    Auction coming up

    The Manheim LR3 off-lease factory auction happens in one week just down the interstate from me. So far, 23 2007 and 2006 SE and HSE on the list. Anyone need my help getting a very good deal? I can fix you up so you don't pay those crazy prices quoted below - buy at wholesale like those...

    Deja Vu, all over again

    Hey, it's Dec. 29, 2008, and I know the future! I know what some of you will post as answers to recent questions asked, and then I know that those answers will be lost to the ether! One step forward, two steps back. Poor Rover World, poor us.

    Welcome, lfr

    New member lfr has much to contribute (albeit using few words!), bringing to the fore some useful older posts again with each update. I gather from some comments that you, lfr, have some running experience working on Rovers and other cars. Do you own a shop? Let me encourage you to tell us...

    Automatic battery protection?

    Don't our cars have control over lights left on so to turn them off before the battery drains? All my recent Audis have this basic feature, even lesser cars. Wife's car had a little "issue" today.

    need a 2006 SE? - not mine, not an ad

    lots of them running through the Manheim sale in Detroit on July 30, very low miles and all colors, under $20 - I know, dang. If someone needs such a car, I can hook you up with an honest buyer at that sale at no obligation. J

    edit classifieds header

    Tried to edit my header on a classified ad, but it looks the same as always to me when I see the forum page. Only when selecting the post can I see the changes. I want to change the cost of the car advertised so that the header reflects this when others merely view the page rather than...

    Extra front brake sensor, oops

    Noob mistake? My old sensor never contacted the rotor, so we left it in place to continue its good service. Save yourself a shopping trip, and save me the hassle of a return. Free USPS shipping if you pay my low, low actual product cost (I paid only $17). My invoice of last Friday's date...

    Adding lumbar support to 06 LR3 -

    So, today I picked the LR3 up from the upholstery shop that services our company's truck fleet when needed and that is situated at the nearest Manheim auction site. I turned it over to them to add the powered lumbar support that Land Rover did not include in the 2006 models, but that I can not...

    Moderator? Where did my Lumbar post go?

    I posted some detail about adding a powered lumbar support to my LR3 last night, got a response from a member and even responded back to it. Now the whole thing is gone. Admittedly I'm new here, but I got no PM or email about deleting one of my posts, and I find no rule that my initial post...

    Tire selections 19"

    So, unless the Bridgestone rep tells my guy something different on Monday, the Dueler Alenza HL is not yet in the supply stream for 255/55/19 (none available in Michigan per one retailer today, supporting what a call to the company suggested on Friday). In that case, I'm going to experiment...

    research fails me: help with lug nut torque spec

    I still lack an owner's manual and am buying tires. I like to hand torque my cars' lugs using my adjustable torque wrench. Can someone tell me the proper torque spec for the lug nuts? It might be in the manual, but I am not yet able to RTFM. BTW, I assume one or another standard metric...

    New LR3 owner, 06 HSE - intro and needy

    I'm active on Audiworld's allroad forum, so I kept my name from there. This format differs greatly, so give me time to get used to it. My household will have one less Audi soon, with the LR3's arrival. Any tips on getting a NAV disc (not sure I have it, yet), owner's manual or take-off 19"...
