    Rear Washer Jet

    The rubber gasket around the rear washer jet on my 2012 LR4 perished and came off while I was washing the vehicle. I bought a replacement jet and took the gasket off that and fitted it on the existing one. Only problem is that everytime I open the upper lift gate, the jet nozzle moves slightly...

    Rain Water Leak

    I had the same thing a couple of weeks ago. Got the tube cleaned, only for it to happen again on Friday. Took it back to the shop today for them to look at it and they think that the headliner was pressing against the tube on the drivers' side causing it to be pinched and then not drain...

    LR4 Tailgate not opening

    The warnings were gone when i got in the vehicle this morning. I can only assume the system needed time to reset itself.

    LR4 Tailgate not opening

    So I replaced the actuator and the latch while I was in there. Everything works now, but when I got in the vehicle I am getting a red warning light and a message saying the tailgate is open even though it is shut tight. Any thoughts?

    LR4 Tailgate not opening

    I have been trawling around looking for info on installing a manual release cable but I can't seem to find much. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

    LR4 Tailgate not opening

    So my tailgate won't open anymore. When I press the fob or the button on the upper part I can here a click/thunk, but the upper part will not budge. I am assuming this is probably the actuator located in the lower portion of the tailgate, but would appreciate if anyone has any suggestions on...

    Things to look for on a high mileage LR4

    Ended up paying $22,000 for it. Although, I discovered over the weekend that there is a tiny amount of oil dripping from somewhere. I checked the oil level several times on Friday/Saturday about 20 minutes after driving it and the oil level was constant at Max on the read out. I checked it...

    After all that, found a 2012 HSE with 50k with full Land Rover service history.

    Things to look for on a high mileage LR4

    Decided to avoid anything in the 2010-2012 range. I found a 2013 HSE with the comfort package with 80k for $22,900 at a Land Rover dealer near Chicago. They have a complete service history for the vehicle and all the major things discussed in this thread have been replaced. I asked the dealer...

    Good to know about the timing chain guide issue. We probably would put less than 10,000 miles a year on it.

    Things to look for on a high mileage LR4

    That one looks nice. It is a little out of my way, sadly. I just called Land Rover Tulsa to inquire about the 2010 Lux with 63,000. They told me it had the control arms and ball joints replaced at 39,000 and had the front and rear brakes replaced at 48,000. The dealer is asking $19,000 for that...

    It looks like the oil change intervals are round about every 15,000 miles.
