2003 can't maintain idle, bad random misfires
I've spent hours searching through number of forum posts but can't seem to find the answer. It's actually been few month since my 2003 started developing random misfire issue. But it only happens at idling. Once car moves, it pulls smoothly and strongly. Never an issue so I delayed looking into... -

Reversing Camera Tram Line Overlay
It must be the technical limitation of switching on the video processing system. However, once rear view is switched on, the image is not delayed at all. It's real time of course. if you saw your little ones jumping into the rear of car, the image better be real time not from 2 seconds earlier! -
DIY Oil Changes Impossible & 2nd Battery
Yes, it's extended interval type fully synthetic hence 15K miles change interval. You can check your oil level via info screen anytime you want. But I don't bother checking the color. It will last between interval. By the way, for those of you thinking about doing it your self, please get one... -
Reversing Camera Tram Line Overlay
Yes you must have vision assist package (aka surround camera system) to have the moving/active lines. what most people don't realize is that it's more then just moving lines. The whole view is digitally processed and corrected when you have the surround camera system instead of giving you... -
LR4 Tow Assist - does it exist?
It cost me about $130 to order a kit online and 30 minutes of install time. 2010, 2011, 2012 all same in this area. This has nothing to do with keyless entry.... it's all typical dealership BS. Then I took it to the dealer on next service and paid $75 to enable the features. and yes I have a 5... -
2012 lr4 update
2012 Navigation system is still Hard drive based. It now has virtual CD change which rips music from your CD and stores on the hard drive in uncompressed format up to 6 disk worth of music. Because hard drive is faster and can store more data than DVD will ever, no manufacturer will go back to... -
DIY Oil Changes Impossible & 2nd Battery
I am going to do my first oil change on my LR4. What is the size of oil filter cap? Is there a good place to buy the removal tool? Also, I can't seem to find a retailer selling SLX professional 5w 20 oil. Where are you guys getting them? From dealer? LR part number? -

HID installed
Manufacture will never design something for a non intended use. LR4's projector designed for helogen bulb is intended and DOT approved for H11 bulb type only and the projector designed for HID is intended for D3S bulb type. Aftermarket HID kit has D3S hid bulbs (could even be older D2 type)... -

Hi every one !question about the 2011 LR4
2003 model years? It's not just Freelander then. Try 2003 Discovery II... or 2003 BMW all new Range Rover. Heck even the first year 2005 Ford LR3 had it's share of issues. Difference in quality is noticeable. I got 2010 LR2 as a loaner car while my LR4 was in the shop for camera issue and I... -
Hi every one !question about the 2011 LR4
Camera issue can be addressed. I had to wait 3 trips total and 6+ month of waiting for parts but now, it's working 100% every time I use the system. Sometimes I just turn it on while I drive so I can see if it's working. -
