Will spraying water in the side mirrors damage anything?
A spider has moved in to my driver's side mirror, and every night it builds a huge web that I have to destroy in the morning, getting sticky gunk all over the door and window. Then every night, it just rebuilds it. I'm pretty sure it's camping out inside the mirror. I don't know how else to... -

iPhone with iOS4 & Pandora work fine (so far)!
The iPhone doesn't allow bluetooth music streaming, and neither does the LR4 -

Just thought of a great feature
LR should add a feature wherein if the collision sensors sense your vehicle getting hit while parked in a lot or on a street, the cameras automatically activate and record a 10 second video to the onboard nav hard drive (in hopes of catching a license plate number)... -

iPhone via cable
I haven't tried that but I doubt it would work. I'm sure the iPhone cable overrides the headphone jack. You could always just get a car charger and plug it in to the power outlet... -

Extended Warranty
Actually I haven't found this to be true, at least with the Land Rover extended warranty. I bought an extended warranty from Land Rover on my '05 LR3 back in 2005 which extended it to 85,000 miles/7 years. It cost $3,500 at the time, and I used it probably 5 or 6 times between 50,000 and... -

iPhone via cable
All you need to do is run a 1/8" male-to-male headphone cable from the Auxilliary jack (located above the 2nd row cupholders) to a convenient place in the front row. Just plug it in to the iphone headphone and use the Aux input. There isn't any integration with the LR display, but you can play... -

LR4 Bluetooth Compatibility with the iPhone 3GS
My experience with a 3GS is that it always works when dialing out, but when answering calls, it works about 75% of the time. The other 25%, the audio reverts back to the iPhone. All you have to do is click Audio Source on the iphone, as switch from "iPhone" to "LAND ROVER" -

My pricing for a Lux Plus
They got it from another dealer (in Boston I think). It was the only LP in Rimini Red in the country. Apparently there aren't many Lux Pluses out there. I considered ordering it, but the dealer said there's a 3-4 month wait currently - I confirmed that on the disco3.co.uk website. My... -

My pricing for a Lux Plus
My dealer started by saying the same thing, but after we had negotiated for a while, he said he'd be able to share $1,000 of the 'kickback' they get from LR financial. I also heard about the $1,500 Chase financing saving, but I don't think their terms were as favorable. LR Financial is... -

My pricing for a Lux Plus
If anyone is looking for guidance, I just purchased a Lux Plus, and I wanted to share the deal I got (after much haggling), in case anyone is wondering how much dealers are willing to move off MSRP... First, I had a trade-in (an '05 LR3 HSE with 80k miles) - the KBB trade in value was... -

Surround cameras? Worth it?
I'm deciding between a Lux package with Heavy Duty, and the Lux Plus package. The Lux Plus package includes heavy duty. So the difference in price is only $800. Is it worth the $800 to get all those cameras? I do parallel park often, but I'm already pretty good at it without five...
