Multiple repairs on a 70K miles 2013 LR4: what can I expect next
Within the past few years I've replaced my front + rear crossover pipes, water pump, accessory belts, and fixed a timing chain cover oil leak. Prior to that I've done some other minor things, along with new front air struts and a new center valve block (air suspension). New hood struts, and...- f1racer328

Dash Cams?
Pretty sure I did the center console cooler fuse. Not 100% sure. I can check and send some photos at some point.- f1racer328

Dash Cams?
I have the blackvue to the left of the rear view mirror, and my radar detector to the right. Not in my line of sight while driving, and they're both hardwired to the passenger footwell fuse box.- f1racer328

Dash Cams?
I have a Blackvue dual camera setup (Front and rear) and it's been great. Have had it for 5+ years and it's been great. I recently put a Viofo A119 Mini 2 into another one of my cars and that seems fine as well.- f1racer328

2016 LR4 Under body blowoff or "air burst" sound, is this a dead compressor sound?
What kind of code reader are you using? The air suspension system isn't too complicated on these. Air goes from the compressor to a valve block that directs it into the reservoir, then front/rear. The front and rear have valve blocks as well. These blocks have solenoids that get gummed up with...- f1racer328

Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading
I did the same thing, replaced the radiator without removing/disconnecting the AC condensor. It was a pain in the ass to get the old one out but the new one went in easier. I just ended up breaking two tabs off the old radiator on the way out, and it came out a lot easier. It's comically tight...- f1racer328

Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles
I do 7500 mile OCIs but am probably going to switch to yearly (don't drive it as much anymore) - usually consumes about a quart or so. Depends, on what? I have no idea. Just varies slightly. I always top it off though when the level is lower than the max.- f1racer328

Valvoline Restore & Protect?
I have done them before on the LR4 and just did a recent analysis, and it came back in good shape. Have only used the oil extractor for the past 7 years.- f1racer328

Valvoline Restore & Protect?
No. I drained it from the plug once after extracting and only a few drips came out. I'm not joking. There's zero reason to not use an oil extractor, it's so easy.- f1racer328

2011 LR4 HSE oil question
The oil display will tell you how much oil to add if its low. The full scale does seem to be around 1 quart. I think a lot of people go into the service menu after driving, and see the unavailable screen and panic and add oil... you just need to wait about 10-15 minutes after the engine is off...- f1racer328

Do durable side wall tires exist for the LR4?
Just about to hit 49,000 miles and they're pretty much shot, however I just did the White Rim Trail in Moab with them with zero problems. Edit: Also doing a 5 tire rotation.- f1racer328

Do durable side wall tires exist for the LR4?
Worn to the wear bars they are also super quiet still... I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I'm looking at buying the Open Country AT3 EV tire for my Rivian as well, once my OEM tires wear down more.- f1racer328
