    Battery charging issues and a fix??

    When I plug the GAP tool in, the voltage shows up on the dash, but it never changes. So, I don’t think it’s reading correctly and I simply ignore it. I haven’t tried going into the menu to live views for the voltage.

    Battery charging issues and a fix??

    New, fully charged battery at complete rest (nothing connected) should be about 12.8v. When you hook it up to the LR4, certain systems will immediately start up (even if the key is off). Let it set, hood up and key away from the car, for about 15 minutes, and all those systems should shut back...

    Lr4 5.0 serpentine belt issue

    I believe there was a TSB on a bad idler pulley, and I remember someone on here had a problem with the idler that shredded his belt. Might have been Fuji4. Just googled quickly and found the TSB: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/SB-10106005-9340.pdf. The TSB is for a humming noise...

    LR4 Binding Brakes

    I was thinking you were get shudder when applying the brakes, which almost always points to warped rotors (i.e., from heat/brake drag). Is the shudder happening when you are off the brakes? Feeling it through the steering wheel, or more generally throughout the car? Wheel bearings usually...

    Just received my notice to put my deposit down on a Grenadier

    For those attending in San Francisco, I didn’t see any exact address of where to go so I emailed them. The SF event will be happening at: 3073 17th Street San Francisco, CA 94110.

    "Smart key not found" help!!!

    I often store my second fob in the car with no battery (hide manual/emergency key on outside of car - my system in case I lose fob in the woods or lock myself out). I’ve had it that way for months at a time without losing programming.

    LR4 Binding Brakes

    Most of the time, a sticking caliper is just the pins. Pretty easy/cheap to pull them out, clean up or maybe replace the pins, clean out the bore, re-grease, and maybe replace the little rubber boots that seal them. I’d probably try that before buying new ones. They are pretty expensive to...

    LR4 Binding Brakes

    I’m no brake expert, but I think a master cylinder going bad would give you a different pedal sensation. I also don’t know why it would affect one front wheel, unless maybe one brake line was clogged. Doesn’t seem likely. And if this were a “known issue,” I‘m sure there would be some talk of...

    "Smart key not found" help!!!

    If it is a problem that comes and goes (as it sounds like from your description), the problem is not a fuse. Once a fuse is blown, it doesn’t come back on. Sounds like a problem with the RF signal (which could be anything from a dying fob battery to loose antenna to bad RF module), but I...

    2015 LR4 Throwing Misfire Codes. Need some help...

    Yes, according to my manual, 1, 2, and 3 are passenger side. The 5.0 V8 used the more conventional even-odd numbering for the two banks, but they apparently switched it up to consecutive numbering on the scv6. Good luck with it and please report back to let us know what you find out.

    2015 LR4 Throwing Misfire Codes. Need some help...

    How long ago was the valve cover leak repaired? If it was just done, I probably wouldn’t fiddle with much before taking it back to them or they might blame the problem on your fiddling. Removing the valve cover requires removing the fuel rail and injectors. I believe the injector seals...

    Lr4 coolant bleed valve screw

    Wow…that’s concerning. Never heard of that happening, and no idea what would cause it, but I’m thinking about wrapping a piece of that silicone self-fusing tape (rescue tape or the like) around the front crossover to hold that cap in tight.

    Considering an LR4. Would you buy one at 100k mileage?

    Hey…I had the 302 in my ‘85 mustang when I was in high school….I ain’t no grandpa yet sonnyboy. But I am still amazed at how much horsepower they get now. That 302 only had like 175 hp.

    Depreciation Value for LR4 after accident

    My advice: avoid LA. Had to go down for a soccer tourney and decided last minute to drive instead of fly. Bad choice. Stuck in LA traffic, and some A-hole texting on phone plowed into me. (Kidding about LA - just as bad up here in SF and so many other places).

    Depreciation Value for LR4 after accident

    I think it depends on how much money you’re talking about, and what kind of problems you’re running up against. For the money I’m looking for on a DV claim, I don’t think it’s worth hiring an attorney. If they’re totaling out the car and cheating you by $10K on the valuation, that might be a...

    Depreciation Value for LR4 after accident

    Just FYI, I didn’t really shop around on the DV appraisal, so I can’t yet vouch for TigerDV. I would be interested in knowing what you think of their estimate in your case (compared to what you calculated yourself). As for salvage parts, personally I see no problem with salvage body parts...

    Depreciation Value for LR4 after accident

    I’m in the middle of this myself right now. I was rear ended with repairs to the tune of $6K - no frame damage, no airbag, just the bumper, tailgate, and rear window. I did an estimate through an appraisal service called TigerDV, and they say my DV is around $5K. You can do a free DV...

    2016 LR4 engine cover removal

    Yeah, but I assumed he meant the “cover” on the supercharger, which is what blocks the PCV.

    When is it time to say goodbye?

    Wow…yearly? For how many years? What the hell happened that averaged out to that kind of cost?

    2016 LR4 engine cover removal

    The PCV is on the passenger side of the engine, partially covered by the cooler on the supercharger. You can see a little bit of the orange diaphram peaking through a round cap. If you are going to have the sc off for other reasons, access is really easy. But removing the supercharger is a...

    Considering an LR4. Would you buy one at 100k mileage?

    You can try to confirm regular oil changes and look at the carfax/autocheck for anything alarming(evidence of overheating, coolant burst, sunroof drain problems - which tend to wet out the electronics) - better than nothing, but I don’t think carfax/autocheck are good for much other than...

    Tuffant Wheels ET27 Pictures

    When I was shopping for wheels, the Tuffant USA distributer sent me some pictures showing the difference between the ET27s and the ET44s (very helpful guy named Jake). Sharing them here as it seems to be exactly what you’re looking for. The white car is on ET27s and running a 265/65 tire. The...

    Adding Adaptive Cruise to LR4

    Pretty certain it was an add on. Took me many months to find an LR4 with ACC and HD package when I bought mine a few years back.
