Help! My LR4 Needs a New Engine & I Need Your Input
Ditch it while you’re ahead. LR4’s are piles of ****. That’s my knee **** reaction, and like you I’m about a year & $30,000 into a vehicle that’s worth about $10,000 and still needs some work. Mine was well maintained but seems to have another part break every time I drive it. In the end... -
Oil in Intake Manifold - Smoke on Startup
Follow up: Replaced PCV’s & no more smoke Also took care of CEL & code for misfires on startup. Took roughly 500 miles to burn through all the residual oil in the intake manifold. -
Has anyone run the Rubicon Trail in an LR3 or LR4?

Please identify these sounds! LR4 Vibration on Gas pedal and Front End Clicking
Thank you for sharing! I believe mine has the same issue as yours, in the second video. I’m guessing the axle fixed that? -
Coolant Temp Questions
Thorough explanation, thank you! This is the information I was looking for when I created the post. -
Coolant Temp Questions
This makes sense, thank you for helping me fully understand the system and how it operates! I believe sensor 1 is the “hot” side as it consistently reads much hotter than sensor 2 aka the “cold” side. -
Coolant Temp Questions
All I see are sensor 1 posts & temps. Not much on here focused on sensor two hence my post. Unless you care to correct me and link a thread I haven’t read, but I searched for 30 mins B4 posting. -
Coolant Temp Questions
Does anyone know what a good range of temperatures looks like in a US Spec 5.0, and if fluctuations are normal? I’m running live values using my GAP tool and the readings are fairly consistent: Sensor 1 reads 89-91 degrees Celsius and I’m guessing 91 opens the thermostat as that’s when the... -
LR4 5.0L overheating at idle
is this a US spec 5.0 or a Euro spec diesel? -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
That’s why it’s important to close out the threads when we resolve an issue. I’ll say this, the LR community is one of the most helpful on the inner webs and for that I’m grateful I can help others! -

2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
mega fuse came in this morning and I replaced it a moment ago. Fired right up. I’ll clean up all the ground spots and put everything back together. -
LR4 - Is there an equivalent in ride/driving experience?
GLS is essentially the same concept with more power, a better ride, more comfort & better reliability. Downside? Mercedes maintenance makes JLR look economical and the fuel consumption is horrid. Source: we’re on our 3rd GLS -

2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
It seems to me that the starter isn’t trying to turn the flywheel. It’s like the starter gets power but doesn’t actually try to move. Hard to explain, I have a video but no method to post. -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
I’m doing that and the starter solenoid clicks but it’s not turning the flywheel, however I can turn the crank by hand so the engine isn’t seized. -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Jumping the starter relay gets it to click but it’s not moving the flywheel. Almost like it doesn’t have enough juice to move it. I can turn the crank by hand though so I know it’s not locked up. -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Good news is, it’s most likely electrical. Put a socket on the crank pulley and it turns easily. Starter works independently, jumped it with straight 12v B4 install -

2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Update: Replaced the starter and NO DICE! I’d really like to figure this out but I may either sell it or send it to Land Rover indy. -
