Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
I believe that that is used during shipping and is blanked off upon arrival at the dealership. -
2015 Range Rover HSE V6 supercharged, minor usage of antifreeze, small leak found on passenger side rear of engine
I agree that the dealer has properly diagnosed. Do front cross over, rear manifold (i.e. rear crossover), water pump, thermostat, that assembly that contains the small plastic tube that goes into the water pump, intake manifold gaskets, at a minimum, if possible also supercharger oil...- txfromwi

Help identifying 14-16 part (PCV hose) I broke while doing rear crossover.
Sorry, I looked and could not find anything. I am starting this project on Monday - your pain is my learning experience... I suggest calling PalmBeachRover and speaking to Phillip. He is a marvel at finding part numbers... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Well, it's been 3 days and my daughter picked up two "Only Normal Height" messages this morning... I will try re-calibrating... -
New Recall Alert : Fuel System
I just called my local dealership and they confirm that the parts are available. I scheduled both my LR4's for next week. -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
As nearly as I can determine from various Rover and parts websites, the relay is correct. SO, I reflashed the system and set the compressor to AMK. So now the firmware matches the hardware. It's been 2 days (so it has had some time to think about it) and a few trips and no error messages so... -
Just exceeded warranty, where is everyone buying oil and Filters from to perform fluid change
Purchase the socket - eventually with sockets from all my past vehicles I will have a full set - maybe... I only use OEM specified fluids and OEM filters, the oil has been more difficult to purchase lately, but I typically purchase enough so that I have supplies for 1 complete change in my... -
OVERHEATING
Agreed, probably air in the system. I vacuum fill - the last time I did the 2013 it took a second go-round to get all the air out, but I have never needed to use the bleeders. The manual for the 2013 (5.0L, V8) says this when performing a vacuum fill: After you have completed the fill. Set... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
MOST INTERESTING !! Requesting your expertise... The 2016 is now at home for summer maintenance.... IIDTool tells me that the air compressor is a Hitachi - hmmm.. (I was expecting it to say AMK...) I do believe that I can read, and the compressor most clearly says AMK - hmmm.. So let's take... -
Water pump nipple
I spent a few minutes refreshing my memory... I find commonly available, 4 grades of copper and 8 grades of brass, each of which is an alloy of two or more metals. and brass is mainly a copper/zinc alloy. The LR4 block is Aluminum, as is the water pump. So in the base case we are concerned... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Unclear what year vehicle is addressed in the original post. Early years were Hitachi, later years are AMK. I can tell you that my 2013 identifies as AMK - per the IIDTool. And on another post in this group, someone stated that 2014 onwards are AMK. Rover cannot tell me which one is in my... -
Water pump nipple
Let me take a look at it for a more informed answer. Unfortunately for a comprehensive answer we would need a list of every metal (and alloy) in the entire system - and that's pretty unlikely....and there is no such thing as just "Brass" ( and even to a lesser extent the copper and solder in... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Once you have an IIDTool you can see which compressor is installed. It's also easy enough to take off the cover and take a look. I am not sure about Arnott, but I do know that when changing from Hitachi to AMK and vice versa, a new relay is required and the system needs to be reprogrammed. But I... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
Long story... Suspension height changes had been very slow (as compared to the 2013) We were off-roading at Land Between the Lakes TN/KY. Lots of hill descent mode - which I believe actively changes the suspension as part of its function. (And works great!) Afterwards, I noticed the pump... -
Intermittent Suspension Fault
I am just about to replace the pump because of this error. If there are any other causes would really appreciate the input before I purchase the parts! -
GAP TOOL (LA or SF)?! 2015 LR4
Yes, you can put two VIN numbers on one IIDTool. I paid, I think $75 or $80 for the second VIN number. First thing I did was turn the daytime running lights ON ! -
2014 LR4 Water pump/ plumbing status?
For a 2016, part number and vendor for that coupling? Thanks! -
2014 LR4 Water pump/ plumbing status?
I did a video on this project on the the 2013 not too long ago, it's a beast at 90-minutes, but see the index. I will do a video on the same project on the 2016 next month - and will post it as soon as I can. -
IID Tool and control module firmware updates
I find the IIDTool to be quite terrifying - lots of potential for messing things up! Personally, I do not upgrade software on ANY of my devices, vehicles, phones, and only on the computer when it's a critical security update. -
New (to me) 2012 LR4 5.0
I changed the transmission pan/filter and fluid on my 2016 very early last spring, but your 2012 would be a more involved project. Plenty of good discussion posts here for that project. I will be doing the transmission pan/filter fluid on my 2013, and will post a video, but that won't be until... -
2013 heater manifold (back crossover) replacement questions
I did a video on this project on my 2013 last December (2021) - it's a beast at 90 minutes long - but see the index. I specifically show how much compression occurs on all the o-rings and on the manifold gaskets. Yes, I would absolutely install new intake manifold gaskets - all 8 of them... -
Water pump nipple
I am electrochemist and I would urge caution with adding additional types of metal to the system. When I see dissimilar metals connected via an electrically conductive fluid (coolant), I think corrosion. If there is already brass in the system, then no problems, but adding brass and the new... -
How to: Supercharger Removal, Rear Crossover, and Passenger Valve Cover
Alignment pins. HOW LONG did you make yours? I am ready to go get some bolts and break out the Dremel tool... And for the library: Because I need all this ready in advance... The manual says the bolts at the alignment pin locations are 8mm, but does not specify the thread pitch, so I... -
Used Vehicle Inspection Items and Would you Do This?
Keeping in mind I already own a 2013 and a 2016 (daughter's)... I am considering purchasing a 2016 HSE Silver Edition, 80K miles, one owner but no maintenance info. It has been a Chicago vehicle it's entire life - concerns about salt and corrosion - your thoughts? (I am a WI native so... -
ECO Auto Start/Stop Not Available
Exide EK151 batteries are available in the UK for about 60 UK plus shipping. Shipping is not cheap but even so it will be less expensive than getting a battery from the dealership. There are several UK vendors, I had a great experience with Groves Batteries. You can get equivalent batteries...
