Purchasing 2007 LR3 HSE Warranty Advice Please
Always smart to have it inspected by a mechanic! As for oil change: Sure, they're relatively inexpensive and it's good peace of mind. Without knowing how long ago since the last oil change in your rig, I tend to think oil changes are overrated. A high quality, full synthetic oil and filter... -

Long term effects of bad rear diff?
Hi forum, The rear diff on my 08 LR3 is fading, which is now confirmed by two different indie shops. :argh: Actually called LR North America to hear if they wanted to help me out with a repair, but they said the failing diff had to be confirmed also by a certified LR dealer. Which I guess... -

LR3 Navigation Issues. Help!!
Too bad. I haven't doing as extensive research as you, with connecting new grounds and 12v constant, but after having had the problem for a few days now, it is really hard to figure out an exact repro of the issue. Sometimes the nav works fine after a short shutdown of the engine, and sometimes... -

LR3 Navigation Issues. Help!!
I like your reasoning! Keep us posted. Maybe this is a corrosion related issue after all. I don't have the wiring diagram, but am pretty sure the wires run under the left front door. I'll pull the plastic and have a peek in a couple of days to look for anything suspicious. -

LR3 Navigation Issues. Help!!
Hey, Although my problem is not identical as yours, I'm also experiencing issues with the navigation on my '08 LR3. Maybe there are some similarities. My problem is that the navigation screen freezes, but only after a short stop - not after the vehicle has been shut down for a few hours...
