Engine revs high upon start up
Good stuff. My PCV valve change was over 6 months ago - still starting and running perfectly ever since. No high revs, no smoke. Hopefully the same for you. -

Engine revs high upon start up
I had the same high revs at start-up - it was definitely not normal…. I have owned that LR4 for ten years, so know what is normal. It started to rev up well over 2500 rpm immediately on startup, just for a couple seconds, then quickly back to normal idle. I tried to ignore it for a while, and... -

Best model years?
My 2011 LR4 has served me well but is in need of replacing. So what is the best model year to target? My understanding is that the 2013 has ‘less” of a timing chain problem - but still needs it done eventually. Do 2014 onwards have ANY timing chain issues? My shop says every MY has similar... -

Auto high-beam assist - disappeared
My 2011 HSE Lux was in the shop for some electrical issues that were draining the battery. That work required a “hard reset” of the truck (whatever that means). Since then, my auto high beams do not work. They are enabled on the dashboard screen (vehicle settings), but the green “Auto” high... -

How many miles on your LR4?
2011 LR4 coming up on 150k miles, still looks and runs great. Question for those who are also up there in miles: do you still do the regular / scheduled maintenance as per Land Rover? There is a big service around 150k miles - but at over $1500 I want to know if I’m the only guy who still... -

MY11 LR4 rear EBC rotor and TRW ceramic pads work
Excellent - I love posts like this. My rear brakes are finished and I have been toying with the idea of changing them myself. -

Nav highway default screen?
2011 This has annoyed me for years too. I have a 2011 (with the older style nav) and cannot find this toggle anywhere on my setup screens. Can you describe where to find it? Thanks! -

Parking garage
Moving to a new office downtown, have to start parking underground. I always panic a bit as I enter a parking garage with the tall LR4, even at access height. What is the minimum garage clearance height you would venture into with the LR4? -

What is ltb00380?
They did LTB00380 on my truck as well. It is a service bulletin covering squealing brakes, particularly when reversing (which was my main problem). It seems to have worked for me. TECHNICAL BULLETIN NO: LTB00380 (ISSUE 1) 25 MAY 2011 SECTION: 206 'Squeal' Noise from Rear Brakes when... -

Speakers/stereo issue
My vibration comes from on top of the dash, near the windshield, somewhere near the center. It sounds exactly like the plastic cover on that center speaker is loose and is vibrating against a plastic bottom. But I have tried holding that plastic speaker cover down and it seems very solid... -

Speakers/stereo issue
I also get the same vibration in cold weather only. Interested if someone (or someone's dealer) finds a fix. -

Possible fix for steering wheel vibration
94 - All good points, and certainly some dealers might take advantage of some opportunities here. But at least in my case, I know the dealer had to rebalance all 4 tires and do an alignment as part of the service bulletin, before LR-North-America would authorize them to replace the steering... -

Possible fix for steering wheel vibration
Cypress - (and maybe Vliberman?), I'm very interested in some updates as time goes on. I have been through all the usual tire balancing and tire changing and alignments and several service bulletins, including the steering-rack replacement, same as Cypress. Things improved a lot after the... -

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault
I got a slow leak in one of my tires from a puncture, and the message from the sensor is very clear. There are two warnings that happen together: an amber warning light on the dash which looks like a flat tire. And the TFT screen on the dash shows a top-view of the truck, with the bad tire... -

steering wheel shakes when cold
My LR4 is an early 2011 build, HSE Lux w/ Vision. When they replaced my whole steering system it was done on service bulletin LTB00400, which appeared to cover model years 2010-2011. So maybe 2012s are immune??
