    Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles

    Fair point, i will actually take this into consideration. Appreciate the input honestly…and yes lol i agree with you on the bass….i did a line out converter from the factory amp. I’ve done music in plenty other vehicles, but the LR4’s cabin is naturally acoustically proper for a subwoofer. It...

    Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles

    The speakers are hertz Pro mille 8inches. I have 3 speakers in each door. The subwoofer is a kicker comp series which is 2 12” woofers. I have a jl audio amp, DSP, and lithium battery installed in the trunk. Everything is on a board in the trunk on the left panel. The system is more for sound...

    Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles

    This is all from me just really thinking about this, but i’m now thinking after my last two oil changes i pulled out less oil out of the engine than what i was used to seeing in my mityvac. I definitely wondered about the oil consumption and figured i’d keep an eye on it. Usually i do a change...

    Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles

    Fair point didn’t think of that…i’ve involved myself in reading about the chain issue on these trucks so my mind automatically went there. I’m not sure if i’d ever know the root cause as i’m not even going to bother taking it to a shop to be torn down. It’s in excellent condition otherwise so...

    Blown Engine 2011 w/126K miles

    Hey everyone, this is more to give you guys awareness of what happened to my LR4 and to hopefully prevent this from happening to you guys. I had 126K miles on my truck. The timing chain guides/tensioner was never touched, all original. I had no slack in the chain to my knowledge and smooth quiet...

    Intermittent clicking sound at idle 5.0L V8

    Mine ticked since brand new back in 2011. 125k miles later and still ticks on a cold start/cold weather. I had read something saying during initial engine start up, the electronic fan clutch may produce a loud fan roar or an audible click for up to 3 minutes - this is normal. The noise will...

    2012 LR4 150k Mile Maintenance

    I’m at 158k with original plugs and injectors. Pretty much just coolant system, lower control arms, oil changes, brakes, rotors, and one alternator so far. I’ve owned since new from 2011. Check engine light twice in my ownership (when alt went out and MAF sensor). Nuisances here and there like...
