    Refueling out on the trail

    We are in Clear Lake, about 2 miles from open water and we are at 21 feet. I forget which hurricane now, but we now know that a surge of 25 feet only comes maybe 1/4 mile inland at most because we saw it first hand - we now understand how misleading surge numbers are and we will never leave...

    Hitch Internal Parts?

    Thanks! Those are the guys, they have everything I need, except for the "rack and pinion rod", I am hoping to find a machine shop to carefully straighten that shaft, but I can pound it straight if necessary.

    2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement

    I refilled supercharger with 85mL per the recommendation from Super Chargers On Line. That plus the fact that I only removed 84mL and the manual is very insistent that the system not be overfilled. It has gone about 2K miles since, about 1.7K of that freeway across country miles. So far so good.

    Emergency key (blade key) not unlocking LR4

    Let's continue this thread please. 2015 LR4, 40K miles, purchased about 2 months ago. My issue: Everything is perfectly fine using the key fob. The emergency key LOCKS the door. Nice satisfying clunk. The emergency key DOES NOT UNLOCK the door. No clunk. BUT - ONCE, and only once - i.e...

    Hitch Internal Parts?

    The LR4 I purchased about 2 months ago, Red Rover, came with a hitch, but the hitch was damaged. I have now taken the hitch off and I need 2 internal parts to repair it, plus a new key/handle assembly. I cannot locate any supplier - anyone know of a vendor? (It's either fix this one or go...

    HI EVERYONE, HOPE EVERYONE IS FINE ! I BOUGHT A 007 LR3 V6 4.0 ! I NEED SOME HELP COZ IM NEW TO LR3.

    I have been told that some error codes are essentially meaningless and can be ignored. In particular some of the lost communication errors. I would just clear all errors and start again. And even if a code returns, if it's performing as it should - don't jump to unnecessary "fixes"

    Upper control arm prices

    From the manual for the 2016. I have had good luck on specialty tools by just Googling the part numbers, not sure about these - I leave that to you - good luck. The instructions are more cryptic than usual, so I assume it's self explanatory once you have the tools in hand. From the one drawing...

    Refueling out on the trail

    You can literally walk from Memorial to the Woodlands in less than 36 hours !! From Clear Lake to Katy was 12 hours (normally 1 hour), it was 17 or so hours to Uvalde (normally about 4.5 hours). Of course, should have just turned around and gone home or hit the back roads - but the wife did not...

    Refueling out on the trail

    Well, after evacuating from Houston about 20 years ago and spending literally 17 hours doing what is normally a 4 hour drive, I built quite a rig and deployed it a total of once. Let's see if I can describe it so anyone can re-create. Sorry, on the lack of details, it's been a long time...

    2016 Auxiliary water pump

    There is the main water pump and another smaller pump that sends flow through the supercharger. But I have never heard of that smaller pump having problems. You probably lost the front crossover pipe. Assuming you have not already toasted the engine... Do it yourself, save $5K in dealership...

    Fuel Tank Shield/Skid Plate

    I remember the 1992 Isuzu Trooper. Sure glad that that one had a true skid plate over the gas tank. My wife still gives me a hard time about that one - but that rock sure didn't look that big!!

    Fuel Tank Shield/Skid Plate

    Google the part number. I see the OEM part in stock at Land Rover Paramus (NJ), but it's local pickup only. I also see it at Land Rover Cary (NC), and they will ship.

    New (to me) 2012 LR4 5.0

    Can you please specify the fluid pump? When I did the transmission pan on the 2016 I used a big syringe from Mighty Vac and a length of Tygon tubing. It worked but was less than ideal. I need something better before I start on the 2013. Thanks!

    New (to me) 2012 LR4 5.0

    I am in SE Houston, near NASA and Ellington Field. On my 2013 I am considering just changing the transmission fluid rather than the pan/filter (yes, yes, I know...), but it was not fun on the 2016 and will be worse on the 2013... Either way, it's scheduled for this "winter". If it helps, here...

    Agreed, used in shipping. Should be capped off and stowed away out of the way.

    Meet the New Addition to the Family !

    The 2016 is loud when outside the truck, inside it sounds fine. There is no particular sound, timing chain or injector noise - just a general "roar". I know it's a virtually impossible question to answer.....
