    Replaced passenger mirror glass, now getting blind spot and cross traffic errors

    The blind spot monitor tests the mirror LED's I think by sensing the current or resistance. If it senses an incorrect measure, the blind spot monitor module will not work correctly. Many things are also measured by modules (ECU's) such as the cameras but you can still use after market cameras...

    Replaced passenger mirror glass, now getting blind spot and cross traffic errors

    Did you use the OEM mirror? I tried aftermarket mirror and had problems.

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    I completed the replacement of the rear heater manifold pipe (rear cross over) with an aluminum aftermarket pipe. I did not remove the supercharger or the top of the supercharger. This was working blind most to the time because I couldn't see the screws holding the pipe. What I did have was...

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    I looked on ebay and saw some that had labels that replicated the Land Rover color and layout, but you couldn't read the text. Example below. I sent an email to one seller asking if they were genuine and received a response that these were "better" than OEM...

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    I've looked but have never found a genuine OEM rear pipe. Some vendors state, "genuine OEM part numbers".

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    I got the WMPHE on Amazon. I looked at the seam, and it didn't appear to be uniformly sealed. I tried the screws that hold the two castings together and they were not torqued the same. Also, the hose connections are polished, and I'm concerned they may not seal as well as the plastic pipe...

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    I removed the old pipe, without breaking anything! The only "damage" was to my arms which got scraped up reaching into the rear. It took about 8 hours to remove the pipe. Some of that time was spent configuring my various ratchets and extensions to get to the torx screws. And trying different...

    LR4 Engine Noise Opinions WANTED!

    My 2015 LR4 HSE Lux with 128,000 miles sounds the same. No codes and accelerates fine. I got all the maintenance records with mine and the oil was changed every 5,000 miles so I think it was well taken care of. I replaced my radiator (it had a small leak), all the coolant hoses, belts and...

    Rear Heater Manifold Pipe Replacement Without removing Supercharger - The Beginning

    My front coolant pipes and water pump were replaced by the previous owner 3 years and 30,000 miles ago. There are no leaks. I recently replaced the main radiator, which had a small leak and replaced all the coolant hoses, thermostat as well as both belts and tensioners and the fan. What I...

    Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures

    I agree. Even the dealer that sold me the LR4 told me after we spoke a few times and concurred that these vehicles were addictive, that I was showing the signs of a true Land Rover owner. If it isn’t broken, there’s something wrong and you need a “fix”.

    Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures

    I’ve read about the aluminum pipes, some good some not so good. Land River did modify the pipes and removed the seams. My front pipes are the seamless ones. I think I’ll replace them with the new design. Given the tight space to work I want it to fit perfectly without fighting with it. My 1987...

    Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures

    Ah ha! I thought it was strange the coolant was green. I replaced the main radiator and most of the engine cooling hoses as well as the power steering cooling hoses. I flushed the coolant out and put in new coolant from Land Rover, that is orange. This pipe I assume is to cool the supercharger...

    Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures

    Thanks. I was hoping the radiator leak was the only one. I will have to remove the supercharger for this repair. My plan is to change the spark plugs and injectors while I have it all opened up.

    Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures

    I recently replaced the main radiator that had a slight leak when I pressure tested the cooling system. I also replaced all the hoses, and the overflow container. However, I still had a slight smell of coolant after driving but no visible leaks. I used my borescope camera to examine around...

    Coolant Issue driving me crazy

    Has anyone done the rear replacement without removing the supercharger as this mechanic did?

    Homelink Can't Program

    Great thanks! After reading your post I remembered having this problem with my wife's 2010 Mercedes. The garage door manufacturer sent me a signal repeater device that takes the old signal from the vehicle and converts it to the new HomeLink rolling code. I still had the repeater, so I plugged...

    Homelink Can't Program

    I followed the exact instructions for Homelink including the step for the rolling code and it will not program. I tried to program all three buttons as well. I tried with the engine off but ignition on and with the engine running. I did the erasing of previous codes and the indicator flashes...

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    After I did a pressure test, I found a leak in the radiator. It was the plastic side of the radiator that was leaking. I bought a Nissen replacement radiator and decided to replace the belts and tensioners and fan as well as most of the coolant hoses. Some had been replaced when the previous...

    Where does this line connect?

    I just replaced my radiator and all the hoses and noticed this as well. Mine has a cap over it, so it wasn't connected the anything.

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    Thanks. I agree. I thought about changing them. I removed them, cleaned them and they appear to be in good shape. They spin freely and show no signs of vibration or play. My goal is to restore this vehicle to a point a can rely on it.

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    I finally got my radiator out yesterday without disconnecting the A/C condenser. I noted all the mounting screws and other fasteners as I found them and will post a picture with their location to help others. I took pictures as well to remined me what goes where. After doing this I realized...

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    I bought the wrenches you specified in your video. They were available on Amazon. It turned out mine was a right hand thread. After a few whacks with a hammer on the nut, success. What I also noticed is the plastic fan blades were brittle so I decided to replace it. I am changing the belts now...

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    My head is spinning :) like in The Exorcist! In fact, I think Land Rovers were designed and built by people who were possessed. As I mentioned previously, the maintenance manual states it is a left-hand thread and later on in the manual claims it's a right-hand thread. It appears some models...

    Thanks. At least now I have some confidence I am attempting to turn it in the correct direction.

    Coolant Smell After Driving and Temperature Gauge Reading

    Thanks! I watched most of your video and some of your other videos. Great help! I found your reference to the fan in your video at 1:39:52. Mine is supercharged and from other indications including the orientation of the fan blades it appears mine should be a right thread. I put some Blaster...
