    Motortrend reviews the Octa

    Lots of great offroad features in the Octa and surprisingly the Defender 110 SC V8 is only .2 slower ET in the 1/4 mile https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/first-test-2026-land-rover-defender-octa

    Cargo Cover

    I'm curious about that file encoding even though I don't have a 3D printer. If you were to rename it to .stl it would be compatible with a 3D a printer?

    Pics/advice on your rear license plate/camera relocations

    I don't have an answer for you but would like to also have custom cameras. One for left and right sides plus the rear so that I can black-out the windows in back. Haven't found outdoor hi-res cameras yet that are small enough. But I'd like to hook them up to a linux box with a touch screen and...

    Driving in sand

    I've been stuck in the sand (but not near salt water) and the right way to do it is to avoid sand that is too soft. If you are in soft sand and still have momentum, keep the pedal down because you'll never get started again. You'll feel more resistance and need more throttle when the sand gets...

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    I'd just clean it with alcohol, it won't leak there if you are using a gasket since the gaskets job is to fill imperfections in the metal. As an aside, I have always used Permatex and a gasket for pans, but it sounds like not the right way and I'm not suggesting it unless it leaks with just...

    Smart Key Not found - Solution

    The OBD2 port isn't a hot pluggable bus, I would expect errors and possible damage if there was a surge. You could try unplugging the negative cable on the starter battery for a while if you haven't done that already?

    Multiple repairs on a 70K miles 2013 LR4: what can I expect next

    I love driving mine. I remember the first time I drove it off-road, it felt cushy and isolated from the ground. The engineers spent a lot of time making it luxurious which includes hanging counter-weights off the hydro-formed steel frame rails. They struck a great balance between sport and...

    2016 Replaced front lower control arms and hardware

    I found evidence there is insulation somewhere outside. I haven't seen any crawling under there but then I found a rats nest under my intake cover. Thick batting material came from somewhere and it isn't natural to the Mohave desert so I'm pretty sure there is thick batting somewhere that would...

    Aftermarket Rear Differential Cover: Worth It or Waste?

    I hadn't thought of one for mine. Its a 4lbs rear end, pretty stout for a mid-sized SUV. Proper diff coolers have a radiator and plumbing. Just changing the fluid as part of maintenance is enough and making sure it has the correct fluid. On my diff I'd like toto disenguage the locking at times...

    2016 Replaced front lower control arms and hardware

    The extra noise is coming through the windshield? Look for missing hood insulation.

    2016 Replaced front lower control arms and hardware

    Pretty odd problem. Maybe they stole some parts. Did you look for missing parts? Does your glass branding and print look the same?

    TPMS RESET

    They probably broke the sensor(s). There is an antenna in each wheel area and it doesn't matter which wheel is mounted where. If the spare goes flat, the DIC will indicate that.

    "Hello everyone! Greetings from China to the Land Rover world!"

    過去兩年，我一直開著路虎攬勝4（LR4）進行越野旅行。我會搭起一個可容納八人的帆布帳篷，它可以改造成一個有活動空間的辦公室。然後我會從營地出發，進行各種越野探險。這輛車非常可靠，但我花了15,000美元把它改裝成現在的樣子。其實我自己也能做這些改裝，但是更換正時鏈條和執行器違反了我公寓停車場的規定。

    No issues??

    On a Corvette .35 degrees off is huge. Not sure how that translates to an LR4 but that would have had worn the tire wrong.

    2013 LR4 headlight lenses on eBay

    I've been applying UV protection to mine as well as waxing them. They are scratched and I think it might be from bush? Only the drivers side is scratched at the top corner but not the paint.

    "Hello everyone! Greetings from China to the Land Rover world!"

    我聽說柴油版的油耗非常低。我的2012款是V8的，之前也考慮過柴油版，直到我看到關於曲軸故障的報告。我可負擔不起每10萬英里左右就得修一次。很高興你的問題解決了。它們是很棒的SUV，尤其是在越野方面。

    A/C - Expansion Valve?

    The owners manual states to use the A/C weekly. In your case I would take it to another mechanic. I think the part in the dash is bs. Probably a compressor problem. If you could start driving it daily I'd leave the A/C on for a couple weeks and see if it works itself out. My AC sucks pretty bad...

    DPF Delete Kit: Worth it or risky modification?

    It sounds rich. I've never owned a diesel so maybe that is how it is but would like one. Probably a Cummins in the RAM or the Powerstroke in the F350 4X4. Gobs of power. Back not long ago big rigs didn't even have that much power.

    DPF Delete Kit: Worth it or risky modification?

    If its smoking then they tuned it too rich. It can be de-smogged and run as clean as a whistle if done right and you want that. People still roll coal from time to time but not so much around the SW US. If you look up in the sky and see blue streaks from aircraft that is 100% pollution that...

    2015 Coolant leak, not cross overs

    Sorry to hear that. Did you hear any abnormal or unidentified noise that you now know is from the bearing?
