    Wiper blades

    I agree.. For most things, I tend to stick with OEM parts. Seems like I have better luck with them.

    Gas smell after driving. No error codes. No visible leaks.

    Interesting. 5 months after paying to have this fixed, I just received a notice of a safety recall for this very issue. I wonder if Jaguar Land Rover NA will reimburse me for the repair. https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/land-rover-is-recalling-111746-range-rover-sports-and-lr4s-over-fire-risk/

    What oil are you using?

    Respectfully, and again to clarify, for me it is not a question of interval between changes, the weight of the oil, or time wasted to do it (IMHO, it's cheap insurance to change oil and filters frequently, no matter how much you make, and you should desire to keep a quality item pristine as long...

    What oil are you using?

    I use that also and change it about every 5k miles. It is freaking expensive stuff. I still wonder what the difference is between the Castrol Edge OE 5W20 Professional, from Atlantic British, and the Castrol Edge OE 5W20 from WalMart, other than the significant price difference?

    Best Place to get OEM lug nuts 2010 RR Sport SC

    Tire shop mentioned I have a case of swollen Lug Nuts (Sounds like a medical condition). Probably from improper tool use I bet. That said, where is the best place to get a set of quality nuts. :)

    Diagnostic software/interface suggestions?

    Welcome! Yep the iid tool is the best option, however due to funds, I bought the iCarsoft LR V2.0 tool off Amazon, until I can justify spending the money on a better tool. So far, it has worked well for the basics, to include resetting oil life.

    At the risk of getting flamed for asking.. An Oil question.

    So The regular Castrol OE in the recommended viscosity is not different from the OE Professional how? It seems to be a mystery for sure. I am a change it frequently kinda guy with my vehicles, Oil and Filter every 5k miles or so for me. Seems like cheap insurance and I have several high mileage...

    At the risk of getting flamed for asking.. An Oil question.

    I just did an oil change with Atlantic British/Dealer recommended Castrol OE "Professional" for my 2010 RR Sport SC. Can anybody tell me what the difference is other than price, between the Castrol OE "Professional" that I buy at AB, and the Castrol OE 5 gallon jugs available at WalMart? Also, I...

    oil change (once again)

    Thanks. I ended up after changing the oil, which was surprisingly easy using the MityVac, and Castrol OE Professional, and new filter from Atlantic British, using my ICarsoft LR V2.0 scan tool to rest the interval. Worked great! Now if I can just figure out what the difference is between the...

    oil change (once again)

    Anybody know if this works? I have a 2010 RR Sport SC and am changing the oil today. It would be great to be able to reset the interval.

    Greetings from Texas! 2010 RR Sport SC

    I am actually a Ford Truck guy, but recently after watching a crap load of British TV with the wife, she expressed a desire for a Range Rover. Of course I had no idea at first what they were other than always hearing they were trouble, but after some research, I discovered that they made a 5.0l...

    TPMS Question Regarding replacing Tires

    Hi This may be a dumb question but when replacing the tires on my 2010 RR Sport SC, do I have to replace the TPMS sensors if they are working fine? And if so, what recommendations to replace them with? Thanks, .E
