Tpms module location
What is the problem? I looked at some tyre pressure module sensor info and about all I could determine is it appeared the whole roof liner was to come down. I do not quite believe that but I do not think it is accessible thru the front ceiling liner lights opening. If you have the roof... -
2005 LR3 Transmission Fault
freezes up while you drive Yeah, cold is a bit different up here - we put a - minus in front of your number. Here, in the winter on a cold day, once a vehicle warms up, it is usually OK as long as we do not drive it at speed. Here on cold days, say -35F and lower, driving on the highways is... -
2005 LR3 Transmission Fault
Raptor pan is deeper and no drain plug. I do not know the Ford part number but I did a Goggle re the Raptor and came up with a bunch of upgrade pans for the 6R80 so I presume that equates to the 6HP28 that is on the 4's. Regardless, the ZF polyamide oilpan part number, 0501 215 789 is the... -
2005 LR3 Transmission Fault
Ford license built ZF The link below is to a number of files related to our ZF 6HP26 tranny. Of particular interest is the file related to the Ford 6R60, a license built version of our ZF. What I am saying is that I am always cautious when someone identifies the tranny as being the source... -
2005 LR3 Transmission Fault
The fix can be simple and cheap. I would take PaulLR3's suggestion and first change the brake light switch. The odds are the problem is bigger than that, but the fact that a restart clears matters for a bit suggests a software glitch, not a tear down. The link below has additional detail... -
fuel sending unit questions
appreciate the update We always appreciate an update to a problem; particularly if the concern is resolved. Any fuel tank issue is not a fun fix as just getting inside is a real pain. Those sending units are some sort of no moving parts, field sensing device, again there is nothing... -
Water leaking onto passenger floor
Air conditioner drains, (2) This post provides a bit more data re the two air conditioner drains, (one on each side of the transmission hump), off of the front heater that is referenced in the second post above. A couple of the files within the link show where the two tubes are located and... -
No Sound From Radio/Nav/Bluetooth
Maybe it is the amp? You seem to have checked everything that I would have looked at, hence I am puzzled. I assume you have looked thru the various files I have in my gallery re the link below for wiring diagrams and the like. There is a shop in California that does repair the HK amps but... -
Fuel Pump Removal
Special tools to remove fuel pump. The jpg below shows about the only special tool that the Brits use when removing the fuel pump. In North America, we tend to do it the hard way - by removing the fuel tank rather than the body. Other than being no fun and metric, I do not think any... -
fuel sending unit questions
a couple of pdf's Towards the middle to bottom of the link below, there is a 6 page and 10 page pdf related to the fuel system. Before you take anything apart, I suggest you print them off. Why do you think the problem is solved by replacing the fuel pump? I ask as there is a fuse /... -
65K miles, what services do you recommend?
The technology within the 3 is not yet old. I appreciate your comment regarding the guides. When I got my 3 a few years back, I found it difficult to obtain material so that whenever I did find something, I decided to try to make the info available to others. I note that a surprising number... -
Drain Pipe tips....where can i get these
clear plastic tygon tubing That clear plastic tubing you see in labs will work and comes in differing sizes. I would start at Home Depot or where they sell gardening fountains. The NAPA type places have bulk hose as well in diameters bigger than windshield washer. In this case, bigger is... -
New all terrain tires for LR3...funny story
Door sticker say H rated OK. As posted above, H rated is OK per the door tyre sticker pdf below. Rather than trying to upsell you or being annoyed, I just think the guy in the tyre store does not know tyres. That is even worse. It seems to me that one would first look at the door sticker... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
Is a 2008 up to date 4 years later? I think when you are buying a 2008 disc in 2012, it is probably genuine, but hopefully a bit stale relative to the latest production. I say hopefully, but as you referenced, I kind of doubt it. Hence maybe next year, a 2011 will hit the surplus pile and... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
keeping the original DVD I tend to agree that keeping the original DVD has much merit. I did however update to the 2008 DVD a couple of years back when I was able to purchase a genuine thru one of the forum members for about fifty dollars. I did lose the hack but what surprised me was not... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
same CD - new software - no hack Best you keep your original CD as with the newer CD's, that 1792 hack got bypassed and now there is no hack once a newer CD is loaded. What we are talking about is replacing the old software inside the NAV with newer software so that the input frozen... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
bit of a back art yet Below is about all there is I would say with reference to Nav on the Move and it is more a series of questions rather than solutions. The mod is still a bit of a black art at this time as best I can tell - at least for the unwashed such as myself. Any other... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
interesting thought A couple of weeks back I got the Nav on the Move feature working. If I understood what I did, I overwrote the existing software in the NAV with the HW_NAV1 software and then overwrote that Nav on the Move software will what I will call the NAV/Touch Screen software... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
Denso GPS Voice Recognition software I do not have a precise answer to the question of voice recognition software being either included or effective with regards to the Denso system we have. The LR books are silent with regards to any hint of a learning ability, however everyone except the... -
voice recognition issues with 06 LR3 w/o Nav
be patient with the lady Mine does understand me, but not always. I find I best use the exact LR recommended voice commands. I often have to repeat. I think it learns however as commands I often use, it seems to understand OK, but new commands, what a struggle. Also exasperation, yelling... -
Replacing DMTL pump on LR3
be happy Your situation is better than my usual attempts - you have the new part still in the box and the problem resolved. For me, usually with great difficulty, time, and effort, the parts eventually get installed and I still have the problem - actually maybe more problems. I really am a... -
Replacing DMTL pump on LR3
Super extended height perhaps? Is the DMTL located sort of in front of the spare tyre and kind of above the rear differential? I think it is so no wonder it is impossible to remove. Towards the bottom of the link below, there is one file in particular that has good diagrams of the DMTL... -
Rear Tailgate Latch
link to manual latch release mod Thanks for posting and please keep us informed of your progress. I recently had to replace the cable puller as I will call it. This time the cable was OK, but instead the puller had just got tired. The part number is FUG500010 and LR calls it an actuator. The... -
Thinking LR3...am I crazy
regardless of year, it is a hundred thousand dollar vehicle when fixing I noted the comment above referencing the cost of a head light bulb. Here in Western Canada, a new LR4 Lux runs near a hundred thousand dollars - yes, sounds crazy but that is what they go for. Used, my 2005 is... -
AC went out!
may be just low on refrigerant The easy suggestion is just that your system is low on refrigerant and needs a top up charge. Pretty much every spring, I top up my system - not too much leaks out over the previous year but it always takes a pound or so. The link below is to a number of...
