    Price for 2year Service and rear brakes

    My second year service was just under $500. I recently sold my 2011 LR4 with 31.6K miles on it and it was most likely going to need some form of brake work done but that was not confirmed as I sold it prior to having my third year service performed. 17k does seem awfully early for brake work...

    Leaving LR... For now

    Everytime I see another LR4 on the road I always wonder if they have the rattles and squeaks that mine does.:frown: If yours is that quiet I would say you are lucky.

    Leaving LR... For now

    You know if I did have a complaint about the LR4 is the rattles and squeaks. My wife thinks I'm nuts but it drives me crazy if I hear a rattle or squeak. I did notice that the GX was like a vault inside.

    Leaving LR... For now

    Ha! Well thanks for the sentiment. Like I said I really have enjoyed driving the LR4 and luckily for me it wasn't that hard to own. I was relatively problem free.

    Leaving LR... For now

    Well, it's not quite official but in a couple weeks it will be official. I'm leaving LR and switching over to Lexus GX 460. First of all I want to make it very clear that I have loved my LR4. My reason for switching is really about timing. My lease is ending in a few months, I'm due for my...

    LIMITED inventory

    I had a sales guide tell me something similar a few weeks ago. He didn't give a specific number but did indicate that LR was producing as many LR4s as in previous years. I just thought he was giving me a line to make me want to get one right away as they had ONE on the lot at the time.

    LIMITED inventory

    No doubt... all the dealerships around me that I've seen are FLUSH with Evoques.

    LIMITED inventory

    Anybody else frustrated with the egregiously limited inventory of 2014's right now? I've been looking at every dealership from Philadelphia to Richmond, VA. They either none or one or two. I would say 90% of them are Black/Black. Ugh! Is this normal? I don't remember new MY's trickling out...

    Mild Dilemma

    Used tires? Now that is something I had not thought of for this situation. I will definitely look into that for sure. As for the brakes I was lucky in that last year I was told they were "still in the green" as far as measurements go or however they evaluate them. So I have not had any work...

    Mild Dilemma

    Without going into too much detail here is my dilemma: My current lease on my 2011 LR4 HSE is up in October. There is a strong possibility that I may need some type of break work and tires when I take my truck in for service next week. Not super excited about spending upwards of 3K on a...

    Disabling 2014 ECO Switch

    Haven't experienced this feature on the 2014 LR4 (haven't driven one) but my wife's 2014 Q5 TDI has this feature. It was a little strange at first but we are used to it now. Leave it to the Germans though for their engineering... there is a button on the center stack that allows the driver to...

    Two problems, one fix!

    Had to have my windshield replaced for a third time in 4 months! Basically got a rock chip that quickly spread into a 2' crack. Had Safelite replace it. (HUGE MISTAKE) The replacement windshield started leaking. Ok, call Safelite and tell them it's leaking so they replace again. All good for...

    Rattle near steering column

    Rattles in a vehicle drive me absolutely crazy!! Especially in "luxury" vehicles. I had to have the left rear seat in my LR4 replaced because of a rattle and now there is a constant high pitched squeaking noise while driving at highway speeds. So annoying but I hate having my car in the shop...

    Just picked up my new '13 Corris Gray HSE

    Count, Did I read that you recently purchased a RRS? I was just curious about your thoughts of a LR4 vs RRS comparison. I will be ready to turn in my 2011 LR4 next fall and in my mind am considering the RRS but not sure of I will be happy with the downsize in space. I've seen options and...

    Rear hatch problem

    Yeah I was in the back like a creepy weirdo and there just happened to be a pair of college co-eds in a jeep wrangler right behind us. Don't know if they noticed me in the back or not. Thanks for the response. I'm sure the dealership will get it taken care of next week. It's just annoying as...
