Is anyone interested in an LR hitch receiver?
I’m trying to gauge interest in a used Land Rover branded hitch receiver. It is the newer style short version instead of the old long drop style. I’m thinking I’d sell it around $450 including a new lock and set of keys, or $400 without new lock and keys (that can be purchased for about $30 and...- Fields Carlisle

Selling LR4
If you have an IIDTool you can go in to the service options where you reset service interval and there’s an option for something that says “replace secondary/auxiliary battery” or something very similar. You Will know immediately that you’re looking at the right thing. You don’t HAVE to do it...- Fields Carlisle

FOR SALE: BRAND NEW Exide EK151 Auxiliary Battery - Eco Stop/Start Battery
I sold my LR4 before I had time to even put the replacement Exide EK151 battery in to make the Eco Stop/Start warning go away. You cannot get this battery in the United States so I had to order it from Europe. If anyone is interested in purchasing it just let me know. This is the exact battery...- Fields Carlisle

Selling LR4
So, I actually sold my LR4... What you have to do is remove the plastic battery cover, remove the gray foam topper piece, then use a socket (I want to say it’s 10 or 12mm) and remove the two bolts securing the metal strap that keeps the battery in place. The rest of the process is just like...- Fields Carlisle

Selling LR4
My LR4 started showing Eco Stop/Start unavailable a couple of weeks ago. A quick search online reveals it’s probably the auxiliary battery has died. It’s 5 years old, so that makes sense. I replaced the big main battery last year with a new AGM battery, but didn’t bother with the secondary...- Fields Carlisle

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
If I had the 5.0L I would have done it myself, but I didn’t want to take the supercharger off myself. I really wish I would have had them do spark plugs and the supercharger isolator while they were working on it.- Fields Carlisle

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
We’re in the fuel industry. All of the raw petroleum is transported to terminals from one central pipeline (for example, the Colonial Pipeline). Only at the terminal is the fuel then separated and a tiny fractional amount of additives put into the fuel. Sheetz is one of the larger East Coast gas...- Fields Carlisle

2020 Defender Drive Impressions.
I really want to like the new Defender but I’m concerned about several things. For one, when you’re building a 110 HSE online the smallest stock tire size is again a 19” wheel, which is the WORST possible size for any off road tires. I mean there are hardly any legitimate options. So then you go...- Fields Carlisle

‘14-16 LR4 Transmission Software Reflash??
You don’t experience the rough idle and idle fluctuation almost everyone I know with the V6 has? It’s the worst idling engine I’ve encountered in recent years. It tries to idle at 600rpm, but it fluctuates down into the 500s and starts shaking like a leaf. Maybe it’s an early production issue...- Fields Carlisle

‘14-16 LR4 Transmission Software Reflash??
I have had the 6HP and the 8HP. The 8HP might shift marginally quicker, but it feels like 1st-2nd is too abrupt and almost like 2nd should be the normal starting ratio. If JLR had just put the 8HP with the 5.0L V8 instead of dropping the LR4 to the SCV6, it would have been great. I get worse...- Fields Carlisle

‘14-16 LR4 Transmission Software Reflash??
I drive it like I stole it and it’s still a sluggish beast. I liked my old V8 6-speed LR4 much better. While the LR4 and RRS RE DIFFERENT, they’re the same in the sense the engine and transmission are identical. The new D5 and RRS and even full size RR are essentially the exact same vehicles...- Fields Carlisle

‘14-16 LR4 Transmission Software Reflash??
I’d like to have faster shifts, more intelligent shift logic and hopefully get better fuel economy. All of those things would be possible with a software change. I drove a RRS V6 a while back and it definitely seemed to have better transmission programming than my 2014 LR4. Even though they...- Fields Carlisle

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
I haven’t been buying fuel all that often the last couple of months because I’ve been mainly driving my Tesla, but I only ever go to Shell, BP and occasionally Sheetz. It’s always filled with 93 octane. It is a mystery to me. What’s funny though is that after picking it up yesterday I could hear...- Fields Carlisle

Engine troubles - 3.0L SC V6 - possible multiple-injector failure
So I just heard from the dealer. The Bosch “aftermarket” injectors work fine and the car is running like new now. I’m so glad I risked it by getting these injectors and saving $2500 in parts. So if this happens to anyone make sure you order the Bosch part number 62820 and you’ll save...- Fields Carlisle
