06 LR3 Turn signal no noise
appreciate the speaker link The speaker link is appreciated as getting one that works is a bit of a luck thing. Also mounting the speaker remotely via extended leads off the printed circuit board is I think very wise. The quality control of this far east stuff may be even less than Land... -

Do you use CCFL headlights?
Chips on Board Thanks for the link - Chips on Board, that is new to me. I was looking again at the pictures above of your 3. It certainly appears very well equipped and looks very neat and clean at the same time - the mods are well thought out. It sounds like you did some major changes... -
Do you use CCFL headlights?
Circle On Board lights? Do you have a link for these COB lights? I have not heard of the term previously, but they sure look bright in the day time. You said that they are LED but they do not look to be any sort of LED I have previously seen. I guess I have not seen much up here but snow... -

update appreciated I appreciate the update. One sometime wonders with regards often to silence. I note that you have a model year 2008 LR3. For what it is worth, I regard those of the best of the bunch. By 2008 Land Rover had finally incorporated a few necessary fixes but had not yet... -

copied it all down I copied the instructions down so they will not be lost. This will turn out to be an all week task. I guess that is why the results are better than average; the effort required is more than average also. We have something up here call Ming Shine - not one of those... -

no hoizontal parking lines For parking lines, if you mean the kind the swivel with the steering wheel, no. There are lines that suggest where to stop however. The swivel kind of line would require that the visual system tie to the Canbus so that the image would know where the front wheels... -
06 LR3 Turn signal no noise
You have a bit of a problem but there is a solution. The odds are not only do you not have the clicker, you do not have any warning bells, buzzes, headlights on noises either. This is because all these noises come from a speaker that is mounted on the printed circuit board of your... -

a few links of interest Re the backup light power source, probe the trailer hitch wiring connectors that are located in the left rear C pillar area behind that little access door. One of the plug pins will show as hot when reverse is selected. Tapping in there is better than tapping in... -
Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved
What products/procedures do you use? I just looked at the website and it would appear that this is the sort of stuff one best know what one is doing, otherwise results will not be so good. What products do you use? It would appear that as I have never used the system before, I have to use... -
Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved
Yes, a Tahoe would be cheaper. I would say that my 3 is not as good looking as Houm's but it is certainly more reliable now than when it came from the factory. Over the years, I have routinely replaced bits and pieces as the forums found the problem areas. The styling is such that ten years... -
Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved
It is a high end vehicle. Yes, I agree with Houm; the numbers do not sound pretty but they are realistic, as is the solution to the problem. The real problem is regardless of some blue book used price, when it comes to repairing the 3, it is a high end machine and repairs cost accordingly... -

yellow park brake light Your mention of the yellow park brake light brings to memory a recent problem and solution. I started with the park brake light going on, then the antilock/antiskid lights came on to say I did not have those systems and then the air suspension wanted to drop in... -
Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved
Do you have the Nav screen? The fact you know how to trick the system and stay up gives me confidence that you can find the problem with your air system. You have done the simple stuff so that suggests the problem is with the air system wiring. If so, that is not so easy to find... -

Malfunction Indicator Light aka Engine Check Light I guess once upon a time, the emission law guys called for a Malfunction Indicator Light to illuminate on the dash of all applicable vehicles. The symbol got the shape of an Engine, hence the more common name now of Engine Check Light... -

yes, almost fun to replace My cost here in Canada was about seventy five Canadian however in the States per above, it runs about fifty to sixty US dollars. And yes, taking the black plastic engine cover off is harder than replacing the PCV valve - for once. -

LR part number LR003380 Thanks, I found it now; pictures below and yes, this is for the petrol 4.4 litre V8 engine and what was installed. The MIL engine check light has not gone on for the last couple of days so maybe the Positive Crankcase Ventilation valve was the problem. -
Transmission fault, HDC, lowered suspension height -- resolved
Assume you have the 4.4L V8? I just replaced what I call the PCV valve but I guess is called a Positive Crankcase Ventilation valve as I had my MIL light going on. ... or maybe it is call the EGR valve, Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve. Whatever it is called, , mine was a round black disc... -
The ability to service wear parts
Kind of like a flat screen TV Once upon a time, televisions had tubes and they were serviceable; they were also made in the USA. Then someone in USA invented transistors and other people is far away lands put them in radios and then into TV's - but they were still serviceable. Then... -

GVIF for camera? The GVIF that I installed looked like per the link below except that the one I purchased said it was for the LR3 / D3; the unit per the link below is for the D4. The unit you provided the eBay link for, I am not clear what it does but I do not think it has anything to do... -

DIP switch settings I used what I would call the old style GVIF unit which I located under the left side seat beside the Land Rover Nav computer/dvd device. That one in the eBay link is what I would call new style but probably does the same thing as the older larger silver coloured metal box... -

Updated Nav computer? Please keep us informed as to your progress re an updated Nav computer. That will not be an easy task but given that LR will not pay Navteq, (now Navigation.com), to create updated DVD's for our unit and Navteq will not do it themselves as they see no profit... -

yes and yes Yes, I have the factory Nav DVD unit located under the front seat that came with my 3 along with the NAV display and 6CD-465 radio head. Yes, I had to also purchase an aftermarket GVIF unit that connected to the rear of the factory Nav DVD unit. Regarding the term, "interface...
