    ZF6 to ZF8 upgrade!

    Those guys have also put a supercharged 5L into an LR4! Very very cool stuff! (disclaimer: I do take my car there)

    2016 LR4 Landmark with bi-colored hood

    That's a vinyl decal... I'm wondering though -- is the color Zanzibar or was there another orange-ish color offered?

    Replacing my Cooper Zeon LTZs

    That's an under appreciated point. I moved to 265/65/18 LT tires on heavy 18" steel wheels and... yeah, you really do feel the road imperfections with those. If I had realized I was ongoing going to go off-roading once a year, I probably would have made a different decision.

    2012 LR4 - Diagnosing two separate vibrations

    For issue # 2 -- You have the v8, right? I had similar issue on my 2012, and adding the damper in this TSB largely fixed it. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10224484-9999.pdf Easy fix, part is maybe $50 ? and you can can crawl under the car and do it yourself.

    H/K Logic7 system blown?

    That sounds... really weird actually. I find if I turn up the bass a little bit, the system can be pretty booming with the right songs. Are you sure the levels on the iPhone and the audio system itself are turned up ? I want to say that there is a screen where you set the relative volume of...

    Shipping for Vacation

    From the experiences of people I've known, you may have difficulty finding a shipping company that won't balk at having objects in the car -- fear of claims of theft / damage /etc. I would look into renting something near the destination -- if you're only looking at fire roads and not real...

    Just curious, what's tricky about replacing plugs on these cars?

    New Tires to replace Cooper Zeon

    The Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT (replacement for the Discoverer AT3 4S) might be worth a look as well for a similar application as the Cooper Zeon. Much like the Terrain Contact, but a little bit more off-road ish. Also believe they somehow put silica into the tread compound for enhanced...

    Choppy idle

    Damn, I should probably check my plugs then.

    Choppy idle

    Curious what mileage that is at ?

    First post- going to look at a LR4 soon.

    I think there's two things going on with the timing chain problems... First, there were the tensioner / guide problems for 2010-2012 cars, but this was fixed for 2013 on (technically, some late-2022 build ViNs also have the newer guides). So the 2014+ won't suffer that problems. Second, the...

    Oof, this is a thread I don't want to make.

    A/C Help

    I suspect, if the car is warmed up and at regular (low) idle, there might be a tiny blip in rpm when you turn the AC on as well.

    Dash Cam - Best Options?

    There's a couple threads that discuss hardwired installation - using switched power either from the dome light area or from the rain sensor on the windshield I believe. I think umburtob had a solid thread with pictures...
