Lr4 3.0 battery
Try disconnecting the bms connector on the (-) negative post. Your alternator should put out steadily at 13.8v. Typically replacing the battery requires a battery reset for Land Rovers to relearn the pwm charging profile to properly charge your new battery. Here's a very detailed (27 minutes... -
Low Coolant Light
You definitely have a big air pocket. Next time check to see if your upper coolant hose is squished before opening the expansion tank. @txfromwi basically said the best way to fill coolant to your engine block is through the port in the picture. I have the 5.0, and I've used a syringe to fill... -
Low Coolant Light
Did you do the work yourself? What year is your LR4? There might be air pockets in the engine. You need to monitor the engine temps, if you have the gap iid tool, you can watch the live values. There are 2 sets of Engine Coolant Temperature values, 1 before and 1 after the thermostat. If the... -
More Tailgate Drama...Upper gate pops with FOB but does not release
I've had this mod in for years and it's flawless. The best part is, if I sleep in the truck I can still open the hatch from inside. I would agree with @ryanjl that it could be a bad wire. You can probably ohm test your wires for continuity and if the wires are good it's the switch. You can... -
Changed Auxiliary Battery, Now What?
Would be pretty cool if you stuffed a 100Ah Lithium battery under there for all your accessories, if the start/stop eco doesn't work. -
The XLifter EAS Controller
I have it running off of the acc wire. Tapped into the fuse block behind the glove box. -
Long crank, no faults
I just came out of 22*F weather out of Big Bear, CA yesterday and with as much snow as your profile pic @Jimmy Brooks. Just spit balling here. Your truck probably isn't acclimated to the cold weather. Vacuum and fuel pressure is probably a lot lower than "normal". It probably took a bit longer... -
Camshaft Sensor and Low Oil Level..
1. You have 4 cam position sensors, bank 1 and bank 2 for each intake and exhaust sensors. They are the same sensors and could be moved around. There's 2 T30 screws and plug holding it. Super easy to replace, but you'll need to remove the fan and serpentine belt to get to bank 1, bank 2 you'll... -
2016 LR4 - Rough idle but only when warm; worse when vehicle in reverse
If you're diy, it's easier to remove the bolts to the cats to move the cats aside to gain access to the upstream O2 sensors. It's even easier if you remove the cats, but getting bank 2 off/on is tricky. I highly recommend replacing the cat to exhaust manifold bolts. If it snaps, like mine, it'll... -
2013 LR4 5.0 Serpentine Belt issue
Are you replacing the ac compressor yourself? If so, make sure it comes with pag oil and replace the condenser too. It's not a bad job. I used to document stuff, but i tend to take 3x as long, so, I stopped just to "get er done". -
Alternator Fuse
I would put in the correct fuse and give it a go. Put a multimeter on it to check voltage on the battery terminals. Check grounding wires at both ends, especially under the wheel well, it's known to get corroded. -
Best Brand MAF and MAP Sensors
Bosch or Denso... these vehicles are super sensitive on sensors. -
lr4 fan clutch thread direction
For reference, according to the workshop manual for the 5.0 V8. -
lr4 fan clutch thread direction
I have a '11 LR4 HSE V8 and it's a left hand thread. So, spin it clockwise to get it off. I've taken the fan off countless number of times. -
Rear coolant line leak
I need to reroute those lines on the front passenger wheel well. Any tips or pictures? -
LR4 5.0 V8 - recent timing chain service with 4 new camshaft adjusters - still seems somewhat noisy??
Yes, that's what I'm referring to. Going against all fundamentals, I found it easier to get the correct tension and marker alignment by removing the cam lock when setting timing. The first time around I strictly went by the workshop manual. After tens of thousands of miles before I had to rip... -
2011 LR4 gearbox/transmission
My first transmission, poured transmission fluid out of it. Not sure what happened, dealer said that it had a crack on the case. 2nd transmission, brand new from dealership, had a transmission cooling line rub up on my front diff until fluid spilled out of it. Field patched it. Drove it for a... -
2011 LR4 gearbox/transmission
I was quoted around $8k for a brand new transmission fitted by Land Rover San Diego (dealership). Insurance covered 80% of the cost and I paid 20% out of pocket. Around $2k with taxes and all that, so, $2k out of pocket isn't too bad for a new tranny. I'd suggest calling around other... -
Rear coolant line leak
Wow... That's a hard pass on letting them do it for that price. Take off the spare tire underneath and see where the leak is coming from. If you need the rear cooling line, I have one that you can have. I was about to junk mine. -
Terrafirma hidden winch install
If you go down that route @CRYA, I'll take that bumper off your hands. I need to counterbalance my rear. -
Terrafirma hidden winch install
I honestly don't recall how I mounted the windshield washer, BUT what if you milled out the washer bottle hole to snuggly fit the spacer into it? That would simply hold up the washer bottle, while the screws are securing the washer bottle. -
Refueling out on the trail
Not too bad, 5 years is a pretty good run. If only things were made to last forever... -
Upper control arm prices
You're right, I've always used a pitman arm puller. Sometimes there's enough tension (not by choice) that you can just tap the top of the knuckle with a medium purse (5 lbs sledge hammer), and it'll pop right off. -
Upper control arm prices
Nice find on the video. That's exactly where I was at... It's impossible for a regular joe like myself without the proper tools to torque it down. Is there a proper tool to torque it down in the weirdest position? -
Upper control arm prices
I've done my own upper ball joints and used this one from Amazon. You can rent them from Autozone or any parts stores nowadays, but I wanted my own set.
