I think it is up to the user. When talking maintenance I just use whatever money I have plowed into it divided by the months of ownership or miles driven. With total cost of ownership I use that I paid for it minus an estimated current sale price to give a current running number. For instance I...
So you put about 17k in it since 2017?
$17000/84 months = $202 US/ month for upkeep. Doesn't seem crazy bad.. I'm at $107 Cdn/month ($75ish US) but I do most my own work and am thrifty.
I have seen a few LR4s with 200ish k miles still on original chains and tensioners. Hope to get there myself but likely the vehicle will deteriorate by that time.
I would want to confirm mileage. Only 12k miles yet the tires were replaced (April 2023 date code) . I guess due to age but suspicious? Don't believe anything you hear and only 1/2 of what you see?
Run high mileage oil. That is the first step in "if ain't broke.." :) Are you 100% sure it is valve cover and not a leaking oil cartridge filter and/or assembly or vacuum pump? I had residue on my alternator and oil along part of my valve cover, After some cleaning/sleuthing traced it back to a...
IMO The engineers found a great balance with the LR4 exhaust system. No exposed tips that reduce departure angle and no deep growl for the sake of it, it's not what the farmer mobile is about.
I would think as an engineer you would be more interested in performance gains than sound lol. Will a cat back give you some gain? I get more than enough sound presence from my motorcycles, while in a cage I like my peace and quiet.
Maybe. The tone of a "good" exhaust adds droning on the highway and that gets old fast. Unless there is measurable performance gains it's all for "look at me" factor.
