Battery Age knowledge
900 CCA is nice, mine is only 850 CCA, 140 RC. and 80AH and its a factory replacement. So if you do get a new battery then you could probably upsize to whatever would physically fit in there. I didn't think about that when I bought mine.- powershift

LR4 Electric Parking Brake (EPB) Services and Replacement
The SDD probably has a program to run after installing a new EBP. The R&R sounds painful and expensive. I try not to use my EPB but when I think there would be too much load on the holding pin then I use it. I don't want that pin to get stuck then I'd be in a heap of trouble trying to leave and...- powershift

Parasitic drain on Main AGM Battery after Mechanic installed a High Output Alternator & 3-wire kit
I've also read about aftermarket alternator problems. But aside from that, if I left my rig from Thursday to Sunday while camping I'd expect the battery to be too low (11.x V) to start the engine. The systems use juice. Parking it and leaving it alone from Thursday to Sunday would be different...- powershift

LR4 Stainless Steel Brake Lines
I tried the fcperero pads that are said to be the same compound as Land Rover brand, but the mold for the material different so the surface area contact is different. The compound looked the same. But what I found was they squeaked even with a **** load of permatex stop squeak. When it got hot...- powershift

Misfires on one side 3L SCV6 2015
Its plausible that chain slack is causing a problem because the miss-fires could be timing related at the mechanical side with the camshaft(s) instead of fuel delivery and spark delivery. Did you check the chain tension? On my V8 I stuck my finger in the oil fill and could push the chain down...- powershift

Thought the front end structure was an aluminum casting
No I wouldn't expect magnesium, but it is light and strong and used in the industry. Some C5 corvettes had magnesium rims and there are engine cradles out there made of it. As an aside, I've watched a bumper install vid where they cut that whole cross-member out on each far side and removed it...- powershift

LR4 Floor Sound Deadening and Heat Insulation
Its pretty quiet in my rig, I don't hear much road noise. Slight engine noise and that's it but with those additions I'd expect a lower sound floor on the highway and probably better sounding audio.- powershift

2012 lr4 5.0 misfires and p0003 fuel volume regulator
Maybe its the fuel pump going out. Has it ever been replaced? Mine went at about 80k miles before I bought it. It will likely get progressively worse so its better to fix it when its possible.- powershift

Passenger rear door rattle
I've put a JBL Partybox back there with a 12" subwoofer, 2 7" mids, tweaters, 1000W and that was not a problem area for rattles. For mine rattles are where the rear plate is and the tailgate area.- powershift

Persistent misfire under load only
How do you know its rich? Back when I drag raced we data logged only at WOT (99% as shown on 0 based index) to determine if it was lean, rich, timing advance, knock, ******, etc.- powershift

LR4 Floor Sound Deadening and Heat Insulation
In that last vid that engine sounded like it had chain slap. I haven't worked on the floor, but had thoughts of tearing out the seat cushions on the 3rd row and mount Lifepo4 cells in its place.- powershift

2016 LR4 Landmark SCV6 Engine Failure at 65k. WWYD?
The 1 quart in 500 miles story is thirsty, but the real issue is having to check the oil. Waiting for the computer to initialize and god forbid if a door is open then its even more time before the oil gauge is accessible, if its ready. Meanwhile all that juice is draining from the battery. So...- powershift

Persistent misfire under load only
Have you tried the SDD that is on the Jag forums? If you have paid to use AI then you've paid for stolen copyrighted material so pretty much anything is fair game now. I wouldn't give GAP another $400. The way I did it was to put that money that would have been sent to GAP into a new laptop...- powershift

LR4 Trailer Hitch Service / Rebuild
UHaul has quality towing hitches and receivers, I've bought from them and would go back. For my hitch I had the idea to upgrade so I can get the 700 lbs tongue weight instead of the lower 550# that the manual refers to. But the reality is I don't have a trailer now so I haven't researched brands...- powershift

Best online source form a oem timing chain kit?
Welcome to the LR4 owners club! If you plan to have a mechanic do the chain work its normally best if they buy the parts that way they are held responsible for them. When I bought my '12 it needed chains too.- powershift
