Lr4 Brakes
Sorry, I actually just threw away the itemized receipt yesterday. Did not have a need to keep it, so in the trash it went. Basically, it was pads, rotors sensors, and some shop / labor charges. It's expensive, but what else can I do? I'm not doing it myself, and I shutter at letting a kid at... -

Lr4 Brakes
Just had my truck in for brakes (41K miles) and...... It was pretty painful. Total cost was $1700 and change (tax included). Was all new brake pads, and rotors all around. This is the first that any work was done on the front brakes, and the 2nd time for the rears. I got 22K miles out of... -

Lr4 Brakes
My experience We lease our vehicles, and rarely keep anything into or much over 50K miles. The only two vehicles I have had to have any brake work done (SUV's) have been the 07 BMW X5 and the 2010 LR4. The BMW in the low 40K miles, and the LR4 (rears at approx. 25K miles). The fronts are... -

Agreed, but..... After having a full size 2001 Yukon XL, a 2004 Lincoln Navigator, and an 07 BMW X5 as our family's last couple rounds of SUV's, I don't think the LR4 was / is more difficult or takes more time to stop then those vehicles. Maybe the BMW was a bit more quick to respond while... -

Lr4 Brakes
Been a while since I posted but..... I just felt I needed to follow up. After seeing more and more references to having to replace brakes more frequently, it's really got me wondering what the issue is. It must be driving styles, traffic patterns (jams, etc.)., and possibly towing habits... -

New Tires
Jim, yours were the Conti's? If so, you did very well on the 31K miles. My best friend had an 06 RRS that had the same tire (different size I think) and he ran the Conti's out at 20K. I know its very subjective to "type of use", but I like the comparisons, and hearing others experiences. So... -

New Tires
Had the Pirelli Scorpion Verde's installed on my LR4 (2010) this past June. Replaced the OEM's at about 26K miles. I really stretched the OEM's about 2K more then I should have, they were practically bald when I replaced them. The Pirelli's are MUCH better at just about everything, then the... -

Update for the Owners of this Beautiful Truck!
Yikes! Been following this post for a while, and even given the fact that I've been skeptical of many of the reports about maintenance cost's, I have to admit, you've taken a beating (and I believe you!!!). My story is much similar to Mr. Horacioad's above. I took delivery of my 10 LR4 HSE... -

2 year service completed
Greeting fellow cheesehead! (just kidding!). I got my LR4 from Fields as well (Madison Branch). Like you, have been very happy with their service and support. Just trying to decide if we want to pick up an RR Sport (2013) or a Certified Used (thinking either 2011 or 2012) full size RR as the... -

2 year service completed
Just had my 2010 in last week for the same two year.... Service. I don't think they changed any wiper blades (at least I don't recall them telling me they did), and the cost at my WI based dealer was quoted at $700 plus tax, but my dealer had sent me a "coupon" card worth up to $1000 off any... -

Good for you! Glad to hear you believe everything that's written / posted on the internet! After all, if someone posted it, it must be true, right! Amazing, I never new every review was 100% accurate and truthful. Thanks for setting me straight! Lets just leave it at, "My vehicle has been... -

"Shortcomings of their investments"???? WOW!!! You sound a little like someone that may be here for a "smear campaign"? I leased my LR4 because I happened to have several friends that have owned / leased RRS's and LR3's over the past 5 years or so, and they have enjoyed near trouble free... -

I CALL BS! My dealer says the exact opposite and I have no issues with my wife's LR4 with over 19K miles on it. Breaks still look like new. Mostly in town driving, stop and go. No trailering, but we don't baby it either. Either you have another problem going on, or you're full of BS or your... -

Please Read!!!!!!!!!! Okay, here's the ****! THERE'S NO ISSUE! My wife's LR4 HSE LUX now has over 19000.00 miles, and the breaks and rotors look like NEW! I had to take it in to the dealer in June for it's one year physical, and the tech inspected my breaks and stated that they looked...
