Project Dark Knight Rising
Now that's a serious project !! Yes, the ZF 6HP 26 and 28 are identically mechanically. They produce different torque outputs and that is via the mechatronic and the software. If you pull the attached document it lists every mechanical part, and they are all identical. -

Disable Eco start/stop action permanently
Does that turn the idiot light permanently on? It's very bright for me at night... -
ECO (Auxiliary) Battery Recharge?
It's a very simple task to change the battery. Exide EK 151 as per above. Get it from vendors in the UK, I source mine from Groves Batteries - even after the shipping it will still be much, much less expensive than obtaining the battery at a dealership. It's been a while since I looked for one...- txfromwi

Control Arms
I went with OEM. It's not too hard a job, you can do it yourself. But of course there are tricks - it IS a Rover after all. Then an alignment at your favorite shop. I have a video out there on YouTube for this project. -
Transmission - Mechatronic Valve Body Sleeve (TZV500010) replacement - help!
I just finished my video for the 2013 and now I have computer problems so I cannot post it... Probably until I can get a new computer and transition over.... Anyway... Until I can get my 2013 Rover specific video up there, the reference videos to be watching are in Aston Martin Land and are... -
Best windshield replacement option?
So where EXACTLY does one obtain the Pilkington glass? i.e. name, address, phone number. The last time I tried, every "glass shop" in Houston claimed that it was not available in the states. (Classic Houston - would rather lose business than make even one phone call...) On that project I ended... -

Transmission taking too long to shift
For a similar issue, a Rover dealership (that I trust) advised me to disconnect the battery for half an hour to allow things to reset. -
Touching Base
About the keyless entry. I have found that if the key and the cell phone are in the same pocket that the key does not work. -
Touching Base
All the best for your daughter - that is going to be a very challenging road. Just a heads up... (Because I did not know this I purchased an unnecessary battery that is now sitting in the garage...) From the mechanics manual for the 2016, pg 36. "Do not rely on the generator to restore a... -
Crossover pipe work
Get a UV flashlight and poke around after dark. Look everywhere... The 2013 had a coolant leak that I could not locate until I found coolant on the front surface of the engine. Front crossover failure. The 2016 was perfect, but I discovered a front crossover failure, that could have gone... -
Transmission “Free Wheeling”
On a different matter, I have been in touch with Land Rover Rochester NY. They also suggested disconnecting the battery and watching behaviour. I did have a chance to disconnect the battery, but I did not have an opportunity to drive it after that. Fuji White is now with my D at University and... -
Transmission “Free Wheeling”
Except for a couple hours off roading 3 years ago, and some misc. hills here and there, Montreal is far hillier than anywhere previous. The issue did start on its first day in Montreal. -
Transmission “Free Wheeling”
Yes, of course! And that was 10K miles ago. -
Transmission “Free Wheeling”
Probably discussed somewhere, but traveling and dropping my daughter off at a new university in a new city… I have 2 days to resolve, if possible before leaving it with her. 2016, 70K. I drained and filled the transmission fluid at about 60K. It’s been totally dependable. Got hung up in... -
Bouncy Ride Normal? +engine cover part no. request
Recently changed tires on my daughters 2016. Changed from Michelin Latitude to Michelin Cross Climate 2. I cannot over recommend the Cross Climate 2 tires - it’s a totally new vehicle, like driving on a silky smooth magic carpet. -
Resolved- Height when in Access Height
Traveling… Arrived Montreal for D only to find out that even in access height the LR4, standard wheels is about 2” too tall for the parking structure. What is exact height to top of the Sat Radio antenna? -
DIY Oil Change for LR4
It's a Rover, it's finicky, why would anyone use anything other than the recommended oil to save a couple of $. Rover oil is easily available FCPEuro and AB. -
Lug nut quality?
But that's just the cap, right? The working part should remain in place, right? -
OEM Waterpump vs British Atlanta/ProFlow
OEM all the way. I have now completed the F/R rossover project on 2 of my 3 LR4's. 3rd one, 2015, now at 42K miles. Failure on the 2016 was the front crossover on the left hand side, inside the block. Was not leaking, just good timing. Failure on the 2013 was the o-ring on the oil cooler tube... -
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye

LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option
For the 2013 - V6. I did not jack up the transmission. I did not use spray tack. Think about it, you are spraying an adhesive on/inside the pan. Do you actually know that is remains set and does not dissolve in the transmission fluid? Do you actually know how it might behave in the...
