    Engine Rattling on Cold Start (Timing chain tensioner?)

    Snapped a pic of my sc shaft when I did the sc oil/pulley/coupler/snout at 85k mi. Not because of this, but I went the rebuilt snout route with new coupler. You can see all 5 coils of the spring on the old coupler were wearing into the shaft.

    Long crank, no faults

    my first thought is battery related. Not necessarily that it’s bad, just sluggish because of the cold. I’ve experienced that in other vehicles. Once it gets some heat in it, it’s all good.

    Best Brand MAF and MAP Sensors

    I noticed while I just had the supercharger out that my rear MAP sensor was a Volvo part as well

    Hesitation Only When in Reverse After Long Drive??

    Wasn’t there someone else recently who solved their reverse idle issue with a new pcv valve?

    LR4 5.0L V8 MAP Sensor Replacement DIY

    The MAP sensor on the back for the scv6 engines is the connector that’s a pita to remove. I don’t believe it’s the same as the one by the throttle body. Look at the thread about crossover pipe removal and you’ll see a location and pictures

    Emergency key (blade key) not unlocking LR4

    It is. I had to use mine to lock up while I walked to the parts store with a dead battery. I think it’s most likely a mechanical issue

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    @hickersb i haven’t noticed anything like that so far and we had a really hot summer here this year. Maybe @Fuji4 could chime in, but I could see that being a symptom of supercharger water pump not being efficient or failing.

    Has anyone reflashed their 3.0SC V6 aka Tune?

    So I just completed an upper pulley swap and have a couple of notes for others who my attempt it: - my stock pulley had to have been seized on (85k mi), I tried a supercharger pulley remover, 3 jaw puller, heat, cutting and I could not get it off. I ended up replacing the snout with one from...

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    Yea, I let it sit overnight as I was waiting for a new snout, and tipped it over one more time and got a couple more mls out for a total of 80; I put 85ml back in

    Well, that sucks. The show must go on...(long story)

    You said they gave you the head at their cost, I’m guessing that’s $5-600? If so, that seems marginally more expensive than all the work involved in transporting it to somewhere to weld it

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    @txfromwi what amount did you end up going with? I got 70ml out of mine (tipped upside down out of the vehicle). Mine looks just like yours at 85k and the smell filled the garage with just the plug out…

    Is there anyway to see if crossover pipes have been done?

    My front is single piece. You may have replaced yours pre update, or the dealer didn’t give you the updated p/n (maybe to clear old stock?)

    Side View Mirror replacement not auto dipping

    I may not be 100% correct in my recollection, but when I was looking into this a couple years ago, there are specific mirrors that dip and ones that don’t. I tried activating reverse dip on mine with the gap tool and it didn’t work, which led me to look up mirrors; mine don’t have that feature...

    Supercharger Oil Service interval (2016 SCV6)

    Reviving an old thread as I prepare for winter projects, did we come to a consensus on how many oz. to refill? Also for the coupler - superchargers online seems to only have 5.0 couplers, and eBay seems to have a lot of knockoff looking ones. I did see this one that seems like an update to the...

    LR4 market question

    For reference - Carmax has 5 LR4s currently nationwide, all 2016s, all btw 48k-54k miles; listed for $42k-$46k with the only Lux being 48k mi for $46k. I always keep an eye out just in case something happens to mine and I need a replacement. That said, I would try and get at least $30k for it

    Does your date move to european format in its own?

    My date doesn’t change like that, but my time will randomly change to 24hr format; happened again the other day, happens maybe twice a year

    205,000 miles and about to service transmission question.

    Oh dang, I didn’t realize that. I had read something about swapping them in BMWs and it only being electronic differences. On second thought, I believe that was for swapping an 8hp40/45 to an 8hp70

    New (to me) 2012 LR4 5.0

    I use a giant syringe I got from Amazon that holds almost a qt of fluid, attached to some tubing; works great

    205,000 miles and about to service transmission question.

    I believe it can, but with the electronic controls, you’d prob have to reflash something to get the ECUs to jive

    Here is a good article from FCP Euro on the ZF 8’s https://blog.fcpeuro.com/zf-8-speed-transmission-guide-8hp45-specs-common-problems-diagnostics-maintenance

    205,000 miles and about to service transmission question.

    I agree, fluid tech has progressed just as much as transmission tech; that’s why I wanted to preface what time frame that came from. I’ve always been from the camp of following recommended service schedules from either the car manufacturer or component maker; that’s why I did mine at the ZF...

    205,000 miles and about to service transmission question.

    Just my .02 from my own experiences: When I worked in a shop, the owner’s dad did transmission work for a lot of the early nascar guys (Allison’s, Petty’s, Earnhardt in the wrangler days). His shop always recommended either change it on schedule or never. Granted, at this point it was early 00’s...

    2011 LR4 shimmy/vibration -- control arms? warped or glazed rotors?

    Wheel shimmy while braking was one of the symptoms of my LCAs; brakes were good and once the LCAs were replaced, no more issues

    Meet the New Addition to the Family !

    @ktm525 that was my thought too. When mine kicks on it’s so much louder and I would describe it as roar-y
