How do you completely delete TPMS on 2007 LR3?, + other minor issue.
Here's how I used the GAP tool to disable TPMS on my 2006. https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/favorite-iidtool-tricks-and-tips.43374/#post-230967 -
Fog light and tire pressure and oarking sensor help
My guess on the TPMS is the batteries in the wheel sensors are dead. They last about 6 years. I wouldn't spend money on new sensors. Instead, spend the money on a GAP tool and disable the TPMS by setting that feature to Not Equipped. The receiver for the TPMS is above the headline near the... -
numerous codes after lower control arms installed
I replaced the front LCA on my vehicle. It was a purely mechanical job; just purge air from the system and remove/cut a few bolts to get the old ones out. You 100% need an alignment after. There's also a bit of a 'procedure' before you tighten the bolts on the new LCAs. The center of the wheel... -
Erratic Suspension Leak
If you know someone in your area that has a GAP tool, you can license a 2nd vehicle for $80 (and probably a six pack). -
How to add Bluetooth, etc., to 2006 LR3 HSE
I installed the bluetooth thingy from American British Concepts. It was easy to install and works pretty well. It cuts out after about 90 mins for reasons I haven't isolated yet. -
Buying LR3
The HDC system connects the brakes and the transmission so it makes sense that you're getting faults across those 3 systems at once. I don't have any specific technical advice for you, sorry. The scariest part of that listing is "6th owner." Too many opportunities for "deferred maintenance"... -
Favorite IIDTool tricks and tips
I've had a TPMS fault for years; likely caused by dead batteries in the wheel sensors. Here are the step I used to disable TPMS on my '06. From the home screen: - Select "Car config" and click "Continue" - Select "Confirmed List..." - Select "Tyre Pressure" - Select "Tire Pressure Monitoring... -
Favorite IIDTool tricks and tips
I bought a Gap Diagnostics IIDTool not too long ago. I've mostly used it to read/clear faults and do some basic troubleshooting. Last night I took a stab at disabling the TPMS, but I had to guess at the procedure. Searching this forum, there doesn't seem to be a thread to capture the tribal... -
Lower control arm replacements
I replaced my front LCAs last fall. Britpart has a great video in their youtube channel. The aft bolts were seized on both sides but it was easy to cut through them with a sawzall. Make sure to use carbide blades. You'll need to get an alignment done immediately after but still tighten up the... -

Transmission confusion
I had a indie LR shop do the transmission fluid change (and filter, but I'd have to check my records) at just over 100K. LR thinks the transmission is good for the "life of the vehicle." Legend has it this means 150K miles. You could also find a ZF specialist since ZF are also found on BMWs... -
P0056 Heated Oxygen Sensor
Just posting here for the next guy since there wasn't much LR-specific info for this engine code on the interwebs or in the shop manual. The entire error as read by the IIDTool was "P0056-00 (AA) Heater oxygen sensor heater control circuit (bank 2, sensor 2). Bank 2 is the left hand side when... -
Updated sources for skid plating?
I have an LR3 so not sure if it's the same for your rigs but...my main reason for wanting a sump guard is easier access to the front recovery point. With the factory setup, there's stuff you have to remove. So you either remove/replace for each trip or drive around looking like you've had a... -
SoCal LR3 Rear Diff Service
Thanks for the update. What was your price out the door (excluding the ARB unit)? -
SoCal LR3 Rear Diff Service
I'm dropping my rig at O'side Driveline on Monday. They quoted me a day of labor to R&R the carrier and about 3 hours of bench time on the rebuild. Seems a little high but I'd rather start high and revise down. The estimate is about what it'd cost me to swap for a reman'd unit doing the work...
