Lower Control Arms Poly Bushing Upgrade only one bushing?
Just had the wheel alignment done and the ride is So Much better! The harsh ride over road imperfections and holes is gone. It now rides like a new truck. Well worth the effort to replace the lower control arms with OEM parts. -

Lower Control Arms Poly Bushing Upgrade only one bushing?
After I replaced this weird setup and put in OEM LCA's the ride is a lot less harsh. -

Lower Control Arms Poly Bushing Upgrade only one bushing?
This is the old control arm. It appears someone replaced only one bushing. I had to cut the other bolt to get the other side out. Both sides were done this way. I'm curious to understand why they would have done only one bushing. Anyone have an idea of why someone would do this? I installed... -

Buying Used LR4 versus Mercedes G550
I watched a video of a guy fixing the lockers. I learned that they require vacuum and hydraulics to operate. In his case the pump didn't work, the hydraulic lines were clogged because they were never used and the actuators were sticking. Cheap on parts buts lots of time trouble shooting and... -

Buying Used LR4 versus Mercedes G550
I bought a 2015 LR4 July 2025. I think the boxy style of these vehicles looks great. I had a 1987 Defender 90 that I had previously owned and restored. I was aware of the LR4's numerous faults and mine had the plastic coolant pipes, coolant leaks, blind spot detector faults, front cameras not... -

Coolant temperature can indicate a coolant leak
Following the replacement of my main radiator, most of the coolant hoses and the rear crossover pipe, I had some self-inflicted leaks as a result of forgetting to install a hose clamp and not seating a coolant hose press fitting completely. There were no visible leaks, but I could smell coolant... -

Driver's Door Weather Seal Aftermarket
My driver's door weather seal has a tear in it from the seat belt not recoiling completely. I want to change the weather seal but it appears they are only available as OEM which cost around $130.00. Anyone find an aftermarket alternative? -

Upgraded LED turn signal bulbs
I am curious how long the bulbs last. I bought some fog light and cornering bulbs (4) for another vehicle. 2 lasted about 8 months. It appears that cold and humidity are the culprit. -

I just received the OEM Lower Control Arms. I also learned the rear busing has fluid in it where the aftermarket does not. I will replace them and see if the ride harshness changes. -

Installed CarPlay
The one I installed is: https://a.co/d/06rceM9e The videos I used were: In the first video he removes the center console cover which makes the removal of the side panels around the vertical console much easier. When you remove the side panels, it's possible one of the clips will fall off so... -

Installed CarPlay
I installed an Amazon purchased CarPlay adapter. Wireless CarPlay Receiver SmartBox for Land Rover Took about 2 hours since I was careful when opening the dash and console. It works fine but sometimes takes some time to connect automatically. If I go onto my iPhone settings and connect the... -

2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?
Thanks. I only replaced the rear crossover pipe, without touching the Super Charger. The front pipes had been replaced by the previous owner by the dealer at 95,000 miles in 2022. I tried to access the canister for the air suspension, but my vehicle has some pipes that prevent getting to it... -

2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?
Thanks. I used the site and the recommended tires were still "truck" tires. That said, my vehicle originally came with 19" wheels. The previous owner had them changed for 20" wheels. The sidewalls are smaller on the 20 inch wheel tires. The other factor I need to look at, is what should the... -

2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?
The water pump was replaced when the previous owner had the from crossover pipes replaced. I was wondering how far to go once I get started. Upper and lower control arms? The balls joints come with the lower control arms. -

2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?
The tires are Continental Crosscontact LX20 these are LT tires. They appear to be a bit softer than the Pirellis. I tried both correctly inflated and under inflated to see the difference. I didn't notice much difference. The ride on smooth roads is fine. There is a jarring harshness going... -

Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM
I agree with your advice regarding LLM’s. I work in IT and began using neural networks in the early 90’s. I experienced their limitations early. I am also a helicopter and fixed wing pilot and although I use autopilot, every 2nd or 3rd flight I hand fly the plane because there were occasions... -

Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM
Thanks for mentioning this! I drove the vehicle today and sure enough it will drive above 4,000 RPM but it is rev limited at 4,000 in park or neutral. I could have wasted a lot of time chasing down a problem that didn't exist. I was testing the vehicle for coolant leaks and rev'd the engine... -

Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM
I don't know how long the car has been in Limp mode since I've been driving locally at less that 60 MPH. I tried to rev it above 4,000 RPM yesterday and it stops at exactly 4,000. 1. No error codes. 2. No warning lights. 3. I did a lot of work on the engine cooling system, new radiator, cooling... -
