Intermittent Suspension Fault
Once you get your gap iid tool, recalibrate your suspension on the flatest ground you can find. That typically resovles a lot of issues. Before anyone replaces the hitachi compressor, I highly recommend replacing the decascent silicates in the dryer first that causes 90% of the issue. For that... -
Water pump nipple
Yup, I've been using a bmw brass bleed screw for a few years now. That reminds me, I should preemptively replace the o-ring on it. -
Water pump nipple
Has anyone tried to remove the water pump and accidentally broken the plastic n i p p l e? Instead of buying the upper cooling pipe(s), 2 pipes if you need the updated version, you can get this brass n i p p l e... -
suspension
It self-adjusts every once in a while. If you're trying to lock it into position for an alignment, the Gap IID Tool has a feature on it that puts it in "tight tolerance mode" just for that specific occasion. For all else, you can simply pull fuse F26 for the compressor and F3 for power to the... -
OVERHEATING
You have air pockets in your cooling system. You'll need to use the bleed screw next to the battery to get the air out and burp the system. I find a coolant vacuum tool is the best and easiest way to do this. I have this kit and it's great. -
ENGINE SHOT
If they replace your engine under warranty, you're in luck!! -
Hidden Winch Install Question
Just cut the top flap for clearance. It's unnecessary to remove it, but if you're inclined to it looks like a phillips bit. You'll need to relocate the external temp sensor that's clipped on the air dam shroud. -
Best way to attach winch to stock battery?
I did exactly what @CRYA did on the positive side. The negative is grounded at the other end of the BMS cable on the chassis. -
Auto high-beam assist - disappeared
Typically a hard reset just means that they took the battery leads off the battery for 10 minutes and bridged both loose battery leads together for a few seconds to reset everything. If you have a Gap IID Tool, you can check the CCF for it. -
Water leak from dome light?
Pretty sure you need to check your sunroof drains. Run some **** wacker line through your sunroof drains. They are located in the front corners and run down to the side air vent grills. I highly recommend turning off the dome light while doing this, hold the front center dome light button down... -
Hitch storage
The foam insert is included when you buy the tow package from factory, but you can buy it separately. http://www.bputah.com/LR3/Land_Range_Rover_Sport_LR3_LR4_Tow_Hitch_Receiver_Holder_Bracket_Stowage.html -
Used Vehicle Inspection Items and Would you Do This?
Just adding to inspection items to check. - Unplug BMS and check for 13.8V - Tests alternator's default value - EPB, engage and disengage it - Make sure it actually works - All terrain modes - Sport mode - AC/Heat in front/rear - Check all door functionality including rear upper/lower hatch... -
2012 LR4 H/K subwoofer > No longer working
The easiest way to get more bass is to dynomat inside the tailgate. It's a night/day difference. The oem sub actually sounds decent with just 1 layer of dynomat in the tailgate and 1 layer over the upper tailgate actuator to cover all the open holes. BTW, this is a great time to do this... -

Underbody splash shields...
Just keep in mind, the skid plates for the 10-13 are slightly different from the 14-16. If it was me, I'd get the asfir 4x4 plates. I have them and love them. https://www.asfir.com/skid-plates.html?car_manufacturer=7904&car_model=12193&car_year=12419 -
Quick Compressor Replacement Question
@BeemerNut I feel ya. Stealerships are just that, a business that is under the name, "Land Rover". Service techs are selling goods and services at premium prices. Just look at their hourly service is almost $200/hr, that's outrageous. -
Quick Compressor Replacement Question
All '14 and up has the newer AMK compressors, with some late '12 and '13s have the AMK fitted. Most likely you're getting the genuine compressor from a Land Rover dealership. I would suggest getting it from FCPEuro and have a lifetime warranty for it and from the looks of it comes with all the... -
NGK vs Bosch Ignition coils
They're in stock here at $37 ea... Bosch LR LR10687 Also here at $40 ea... FCPEuro -
Spark plugs?
Spark plugs, you can touch them, it's consensual. You should change them out at least once every 5 years. I've seen them go longer for sure, but I've noticed electrodes burning out earlier than 3 years too. I highly recommend Denso Iridium Long Life, it's a personal preference. I like Denso over... -
Are these two options available with the Gap tool?
Read the #4 post of this thread. I posted a device called, "Video in Motion" that does just that. It unlocks ALL DVD and Navigation functions while in motion. There's a secret screen that does it too. -
At Long Last... Modern head unit!
Would be kinda cool to get the single-din and have a pop out touchscreen unit. I'd get rid of the clock by tucking it under one of the center vents and put a dual row 12 gang rocker switch panel there. -
Mudflaps to catch rocks
Can't really beat $15 for a set of decent mud flaps. I'll pick some up next time I'm at a Love's. -
Are these two options available with the Gap tool?
My '11 LR4 cameras are active regardless of speed too. I just can't stare at them cause it's distracting. The second part is yes/no. Unfortunately, it's highly illegal to do so. I argue that it's stupid for the remote to be pointed at one of the headrest to navigate the on-screen functions... -
Pre-wired Trailer Hitch Question.
Yes, ALL LR4s are pre-wired for electronic brake controllers, even the ones without the tow package. The plug is a Ford plug, if you need a model F150 plug will do. The tekonsha p3 with the ford plug is plug n play...
