    Camshaft regulator failure - advise needed

    This sucks so badly - sorry you have to deal with this... For both camshafts to snap like this implies one side of the load path got stuck; so the crank seizes and somehow the camshaft keeps spinning; or somehow the camshaft seized and the crank kept rotating? I'm curious on the state of the...

    has anyone upgraded to this metal tranny pan?

    I did it, it's probably documented somewhere here in this forum, I went with the ZF metal pan, I think British Atlantic has both a ZF one and another non-branded one. It's not a terrible job but super fiddley when taking out some of the bolts. Here you go...

    This is one of the very first things I did when I got my new to me LR4; welcome to the club and the journey :-).

    Oil Filter O Ring Pinched

    Can't say I've seen that before, I also apply a small amount of oil before installation; perhaps apply some to the hole on the engine side as well to help ease the installation as you screw the filter in?

    LR4 Trailer Hitch Service / Rebuild

    That second video is really superb, thanks for finding those. Here's the tool they mentioned: https://landrader.com/the-shop/ols/products I'd really like to replace the main shaft that engages the chassis but can't find that part, if anyone knows where to find one I'd be very grateful...

    LR4 Trailer Hitch Service / Rebuild

    My hitch was absolutely stuck in place when I purchased my LR4 back in 2022 (also no key); if you remove the pin as mentioned above you will see something like this (you can see the small hole on the silver shaft where the spring pin goes through): I was then able to remove the plate which is...

    LR4 Air Suspension Fault - Inflating too fast?

    With the gap tool you can see what the RLM module is flashed with (Hitachi or AMK), I suggest trying the alternative from it's current setting. I had a different issue but applying the correct firmware fixed all my issues; here's the thread where I document my journey...

    Best online source form a oem timing chain kit?

    I shopped around as I found some of the kits had parts I didn't need and other parts missing. I also did my cooling system at the same time (makes sense while you're in there). If you pm me with an email address I'll send you my two separate parts lists (one list for the timing chains and...

    Where is this supposed to be bolted? (Part #EH22-13N850-FC)

    I knew I'd seen this, hope this helps:

    P0526-17 (28) Fan speed sensor circuit - General electrical failure - circuit voltage above threshold

    Hi @Jimmy Brooks - Please keep me posted as you tinker over the summer and I'll do the same. Having replaced the viscous fan and the battery but not the alternator I'm in a slightly different position from you. FWIW's I purchased the Mahle viscous fan from Rock Auto, it was $323 but now...

    Multiple Errors - Parking Brake, Suspension, Fun!

    Have you used the gap tool to tell the car you installed a new battery? It’s a service option if I recall…

    Multiple Errors - Parking Brake, Suspension, Fun!

    Perhaps have the battery checked? Mine was 6 years so you're in the zone. By "hold down clamp" do you mean the bracket and two threaded shafts that keep the battery in place? Not critical but I wouldn't be happy without this, I wouldn't want it bouncing around in my engine bay... Just my...

    P0526-17 (28) Fan speed sensor circuit - General electrical failure - circuit voltage above threshold

    Great to know Jimmy - my battery is new a few months ago so keep that in mind. I checked my scanner again today and I'm still code free (not counting my chickens though!). I was getting this code (like you a fuel pump issue): Which went away with the aforementioned battery change... Keep...

    2012 LR4 Reluctant to lower from off-road suspension mode

    As I mentioned in the other post, mine runs shortly after cold start and then as needed. The car will level itself every two hours when not running (which is why there are threads when diagnosing overnight dropping issues that talk about removing the fuse in the engine bay). Other than this...

    2010 LR4 Air suspension need advice

    My compressor always runs shortly after starting the car when cold. Look at this thread for details on pressure behavior (I believe you have a question in there as well - so I'll look shortly)...

    Multiple Errors - Parking Brake, Suspension, Fun!

    Take a look at this thread for the venting issue, I went down the rabbit hole with that one! https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/2012-lr4-reluctant-to-lower-from-off-road-suspension-mode.44636/ These things are really sensitive to batteries; most batteries have a manufactured date on them...

    Prepping for SCV6 120k mi service

    Not sure to be honest, I didn't do mine and have not heard of others doing this while on my "virtual travels"!

    Prepping for SCV6 120k mi service

    Looks like you're headed in the right direction, I like the idea of the metal parts but bear in mind that metal also fatigues. OE components are designed and engineered very carefully and undergo extensive validation testing before ever being released; can the same be said for these aftermarket...

    P0526-17 (28) Fan speed sensor circuit - General electrical failure - circuit voltage above threshold

    I love Elves! The fact that the Autel cleared the fault and the GAP scanner couldn't find the fault was pretty cool (@Rover Range - do you consider the GAP tool as a generic tool? I realize you get the real tools but us DIYers have to make do with what we can find)! I do have questions about...

    Should I Rebuild?

    The key aspect here is: "I was ready to put one into my rig when I bought it in 2023, but it didn't need it." How did you determine this and could OP use a similar approach to come to the same conclusion?

    Ohh - And I have the V8 so perhaps you need to just use the part names but not the part numbers - sorry about that!

    Prepping for SCV6 120k mi service

    I did my cooling system when I did my chains, here's my parts list for this (for your consideration and perusal): Timing chain parts, obviously you don't need many of these but again here are more parts for you to consider: My serpentine belt failed which led to this: Hope this helps a...
