    Thanks for everyone's great inputs and advice! Unfortunately, things did not go as planned and now I have the attached photo - a broken red gear. You can also see in the other photo how corroded everything is under there - we actually had to clean and paint everything to freshen it up; the...

    Tribe, Following-up with this idea and @jlach993 's thread: I went ahead and completed sound deadening in the rear lower hatch as well as serviced/replaced the hatch assembly and performed the upgrade for a manual / pull opener. There is lots of material of this upgrade online so let me know...

    Rear Tire Carrier - Any Regrets in Daily Life?

    So we are done with the refurbishment for the rear bumper and assembly, rear tire carrier, and re-installation of the rear tire carrier. Photos of that work attached. The point of this post is noting that more steel...means more rust. More rust...means more rust treatment. This is the...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    Dropped fuel tank and then the old components pulled out attached. They were still working properly but I was going to go ahead and replace everything while the fuel tank was down. Unfortunately, I still have to fix an issue with the fuel level measurements; for more, see that thread in...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    So to follow-up from my last post on this (#11) - I am busted for not finding all the threads - answer to my question - Comes to mind but I don't know what that "low pressure sensor" does and even he had great difficulty in understanding what it did (and he replaced it, if I understand...

    Fuel Gauge Reading Off

    Regarding the error / fault: I have an error light (see image 002 attached in previous post) which indicates that the vehicle fuel level is zero (regardless of what is actually in the tank). This error light does not throw DTC codes (via the GAP IID tool) but is persistent and show no fuel...

    Door deadening

    Update from the Dynamat install for Door Deadening. Door cards are back on (without sound deadening on the cards for now...still considering this idea from @Jimmy Brooks ).

    Windscreen Vendors ?

    See the thread below - one thing worth noting if you don't get the right windshield will be a couple new DTC codes as well as some issues if you have AFS (and the auto wiper and auto high beam assist functions). My lessons learned - replace with an OEM windshield...

    Dead Main Battery and air bag light/warning?

    Low battery, especially that low, will cause any number of electrical gremlin issues. Just replace the battery, charge it up and run the engine, let it go for a couple days, and see if you continue to have problems. Chances are, all your error messages will go away as the computer resets...
