2016 LR Discovery Sport SE
If you plan to let it sit for more than 4 days without driving it, have a trickle charger installed. There is a constant electrical draw that will drain the battery. I had chargers installed in both a 2010 LR2 as well as my 2016 Disco. Also, if you get a message that you need to drive it to... -
replacement tires
When my LR2 needed new tires, I went with BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT. Tire Rack has test results. Only drawback is they could have better wet weather traction. But, they did get me out of about 8" of mud when I started to slide off a dirt road.- Crosboro

Front Fender Flare
Why wouldn't you file an insurance claim against the person who hit it? Won't impact your insurance, and it will be repaired properly. -

Is it dangerous to drive with these warnings?
Sounds like whoever your mechanic is, has no idea about working on LRs. I've owned many different brands of cars, and learned the expensive way that it's better to take any car to either the dealer or a shop that specializes in the brand. -
Factory Warranty Questions
I have the same year/model, and just bought and extended warranty from Concord Auto Protect. They get good reviews, are responsive to questions, and have many options for number of years. They also have a discount if you are over (I think) 55. Plus, specials pop up frequently. I did ask my... -

Landrover 19” wheels rims
This might help: https://www.roadkillcustoms.com/wheel-bolt-pattern-cross-reference/makes/land-rover-wheel-size/ Keep in mind if you want an aggressive tread for off-roading, tire choices are rather slim. -
Pirelli Scorpion Zero
I just put BF Goodrich Advantage T/A Sport tires on my LR2. Very pleased with them--quieter than the Toyo's that were on before and the Michelin's that are on our Grand Cherokee. Haven't gone off road with them yet, but they have a decently aggressive tread. Good price, as well. -
12 volt draw on battery when key is off no blown fuses.
I have the same problem with my 2010 LR2. Have had it checked by the dealer and AAA. Both said their is a constant draw. Takes about a week to **** the battery. Fortunately, the prior owner had a trickle charger put in, so just have to plug it in if I'm leaving it for more than 5 days. -

the LR4 19inch tire dilemma
After a lot of thought, dropped the idea of the Duratracs/Zeons/TerrrainContacts. I have an LR2, and everyone I talked to said they were too wide and could rub. Not wanting to spend $1k and have them not work out, went with BFGoodrich Advantage T/A, 245/55R19. Got them at Discount Tire--the...
