Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
No, that is good idea though. Thanks. On another note, I was able to perform the BMS test. It told me that my vehicle is not going to sleep properly AND that the wrong battery is in. It is expecting a 950/85 battery and what I have is 850/80. Is there a means of updating or changing the... -

Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
Today's update: Got a multimeter with amp clamp and ability to switch between 20 amps and 2 amps max. (2nd one... first one didn't have enough precision as it was capable of up to 600 amps and no reset/zero/tare button). Here are readings on the negative battery cable. Time is after engine... -

Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
@itsaguything - I realize that the reading while it is running isn't the actual battery voltage and is coming from the alternator. And that the reading immediately after engine shutoff isn't super valuable. I was just checking/writing down everything I could. Thanks though. I appreciate any/all... -

Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
2026-01-12 update Auxiliary battery has been ordered and should arrive tomorrow. Exide EK151. Further research and chat says that could be a contributor to the electrical issues we've been experiencing as the auxiliary battery "covers" the difference in voltage at times? Not sure I totally buy... -

Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
I've got some weird electrical stuff going on, so I figured (1) I may as well document it here as I go and (2) it's likely that I'll get some good input from all of you. We've had our 2015 LR4 HSE for at least 4 years and it has almost always given the low battery, start engine warning. Side... -

LR4 "Gearbox not in Park" - Dial shifter stuck in Drive
Do you have a good test for this? My understanding was it was tied to the brake lights and if the brake switch was bad, your brake lights wouldn't work either. -

LR4 "Gearbox not in Park" - Dial shifter stuck in Drive
Yes, because I'm not going ready to spend $1000 for a new one right now. -

LR4 "Gearbox not in Park" - Dial shifter stuck in Drive
Good news. Thanks! I may look for a used one then. -

LR4 "Gearbox not in Park" - Dial shifter stuck in Drive
Anyone here replaced the TCS? Some of the other online content that I found states that it requires a "re-coding" which has to be done by a dealer. True? I also came across a service xemodex.com where you send it to them and they repair it, send it back, and it is then plug and play, no coding... -

Battery life
OK, so what I gathered from all of that is switch out my battery to an AGM and then if still having the same behavior, look to replace the Altenator. Frustrating that the Auto Parts store wouldn't have the correct battery type in their system. My quick research tells me that PG stand up better... -

Battery life
Rather than starting a new post, I'll resurrect this one. Purchased a new battery January 2, 2025 and it was installed into my (engine failing) LR4. Purchased an AC Delco 94R/PG - 800CCA. It then basically sat around until March 15 when our engine replacement was completed. Charged up the... -

2010 LR4 Air suspension need advice
Ours will occasionally "settle" after locking the doors. Typically this seems to be to level out. -

Beep beep
Here is the behavior with our LR4. If the fob is anywhere inside the vehicle the door buttons will not lock the doors and the "beep beep". If the fob is outside of the vehicle all of our door buttons work as expected to lock the vehicle. Seems to me it is a feature to prevent you from leaving... -

LUX vs Vision package
OK, good deal. So basically you can get either HSE or HSE LUX with about any mix of the options. lol Thanks for the clarification on all of that. Everything I can find based on VIN and documentation says our vehicle is HSE. I don't have premium leather, memory seats, nor center cooler. I think...
