I searched around this forum to find out how to tell if an LR4 has an HD Package or not. Somebody mentioned Topix in a thread or two, but not much else, and the comment seemed to go ignored. I tried it and it works.
For anyone who stumbles on this thread via a search, here is what I have found to work. Please keep in mind that I was checking 2010 - 2013 LR4's. Not sure if this shows different for 2014 and beyond. Maybe somebody shopping those model years can add to the thread.
1 - Register for Topix at http://www.landrovertechinfo.com and finalize the process with the confirmation email.
2 - Get the VIN of the Vehicle you are looking at, login to Topix
3 - Enter the VIN on the left. There are little boxes to type into, but you can paste a VIN number and it will fill it out just fine.
4 - In the "Vehicle Features" box, click the little set of horizontal lines next to the printer icon.
5 - A window will pop up. An LR4 with a Locking Diff will show:
LOCKING REAR AXLE - E DIFF
An open diff will show:
OPEN STYLE REAR AXLE-STD DIFF
Enjoy!
