    Lost ALL Key/Sensor(s) - Please help me understand my options?! Thx.

    I think it's around $400 to have a new keyfob programmed, I never had the physical key within my keyfob (the blade is it?): a new one of those was $110 - ouch! So sorry that Lucy isn't feeling well :-(.

    I think shocks should be replaced in pairs so in my opinion that's a good call! Keep us posted!

    Air Suspension head scratcher

    I'll have to dig around in terms of way's to do it; I suspect it's more than just damping although that is an option for the transients. Adjustable sway bars have been around for a while but need more energy/power, they get used for roll control...

    Oh boy, you're a lucky guy then :-). I hear you on all fronts! Aren't the rear airsprings new already?

    I have to think you don't have kids!... I can't imagine this much freedom and I'm lucky in that I've managed to get as far as I have! Anyway; thank you for explaining the adaptive suspension system, it's a very cool idea! I certainly like the idea of a softer ride on the dirt roads and then...

    Air Suspension head scratcher

    Perhaps it's worth checking the pipe going in to the air spring (again)? Is there any reduction in how much it falls overnight, in other words has the valve block slowed it down at all? I concur on the routing of the pipe, I tried following it just visually and had a rough time! What is ADDS...

    Air Suspension head scratcher

    Great work and photos - Thank you for sharing. Looking at the old valves I think there's enough desiccant for the valves to be leaky. Mine looked similar! By cleaning, lubricating (with silicon grease) and adding new o'rings I was also able to stop my suspension from dropping. I don't think...

    Land Rover LR4 2015 keeps entering valet mode on its own

    Sounds good, it's not a terrible job! I have photos of my unit but I have a DVD should you need help identifying the basics of the unit.

    Land Rover LR4 2015 keeps entering valet mode on its own

    This post has a link to the videos I used to pull out the radio unit: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/2012-radio-not-storing-preset-stations-or-returning-to-last-station-listened-to.44507/page-2 One big tip that really helps with the two side panels (right one shown): Is to move the...

    Land Rover LR4 2015 keeps entering valet mode on its own

    Curious what computer takes care of this, is it the head unit that also contains the CD/DVD player? I swapped out one of these for one that I found for $105 on ebay; if you're a DIYer this may be worth a try; it fixed my radio issues! Overall process is not too bad and there are plenty of...

    Yeah - I used the type that you put on water based o'rings (for plumbing). It certainly helps seal and keep the rubber moist and therefore helps to prevent perishing.

    Been waiting for this update... Good luck with that rear valve bad boy! Remember that silicon is your friend and also pay attention to the o'rings on the couplings.

    I hope you're having fun with all this cleaning, it's really having a great impact :). I used this stuff in the past for restoring plastic, it works well and lasts a reasonable time: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B071FRWWRF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Can you comment...

    Default air temp at startup w/auto climate

    I suspected that the case with heaters! And was also wondering about the iiD tool now that I have one! Anyway, don't want to hijack the OP's thread! Good to know we're on the same page wrt to the heat.

    Default air temp at startup w/auto climate

    Mine definitely doesn't do this... I have a somewhat similar complaint in that my front windscreen heater and rear heater always come on... I prefer to be in charge of this!... I did purchase a replacement for this control panel (as I had issues with sticky buttons) but can't really comment...

    Just a bit off topic - Austin Marina

    Same great memories here, I remember my Dad having a few of them; driving to the beach (Burton Bradstock - Dorset) in them, must have been the early seventies as mentioned... Oh sharing that rear bench seat with my sister and fighting all the way; no seatbelts, headrests, car seats... How...

    Air Suspension head scratcher

    On my 2012 LR4 taking the spare out didn't really help me as the exhaust portion of the suspension system was in the way (I didn't know at the time that the white and black plastic cylinder was the exhaust for the suspension)... Anyway, what I did was remove the valve block from it's mounting...

    Land rover LR3 Reservoir valve code air suspension disaster.. PLEASE HELP

    Are you confident that the RLM (ride leveling module) ECU firmware is correct for the compressor that you have installed (AMK vs Hitachi)? I've just been down that path and my issues went away once I had the right firmware.

    Air Suspension head scratcher

    I've just been through 4months of the same, I realize this isn't as long as your experience but I'm sort of OCD when it comes to these things! I don't like not knowing!... Anyway, keep us posted, I know for sure that that RR to valve is a pain in the a** to follow. Good luck.
