When is it time to say goodbye?
I will say that in my experience and seemingly others reading countless threads here is that the LR4 will plague the owner with minor issues constantly. Not sure why hubs fail so early on these, as they use quality parts. Same for drivetrain. It’s odd to me. Potentially neglect? I... -
When is it time to say goodbye?
I purchased it because the dealership represented it as a 1-owner that had over heated. They claimed to have pulled the engine, stripped it down to the block & had a VERY reputable local machine shop clean up the block & heads. They also claimed to install new internals - pistons + crank, etc... -
When is it time to say goodbye?
But, on the bright side I’ve got a couple more PM’s to do & it should either fetch a premium or I’ll drive it for another 150k. -
When is it time to say goodbye?
With the cost of the reman engine I had installed a month after purchasing my LR4 I could’ve paid cash for a decent 100 series. (LR4 cost me $15k & engine + cooling system + compressor, air springs & hubs cost me $15k) -
When is it time to say goodbye?
IDK man I wish I never bought this POS to be honest. It was my dream car but after owning one it’s been a nightmare. Chunk the junk and get a LandCruiser IMO. -
Low Coolant Light
Took it to the shop that remanufactures and installs engines (Ronda Used Auto Parts - Houston, TX). Ali checked it out and pressure tested it. Heater core and rear heater core have slight leaks. So slight they’re almost unnoticeable and potentially draining through AC drain lines... -

OP: Did you ever diagnose your issue? -
Unexpected LR4 project
Wow, no rattle or lights in the dash? That’s concerning! -
Another Coolant Leak - Occasional White Vapor at Idle? 2015 SCV6
When you hear the water flowing through the dash, that’s an air pocket moving? Interesting… -

Are they Bosch or Delphi? -
Driveline Vibration
The bushing on the center carrier hearing isn’t separated but it is sagging considerably and there is play. I’m guessing this is the culprit? Ordering the JXB, hopefully it resolves the issue. -
Market for a 2010 LR4 Lux plus HD low miles!
Here in TX $10k “ish” due to salvage title -
Driveline Vibration
I started inspecting brakes & wheel bearings. All seem good to go. Front end has some play on passenger side from steering rack, but that was a prior issue and hasn’t worsened. 0 play in either CV up front. Front driveshaft has 0 play. Rear driveshaft has some play, could be due to... -
Driveline Vibration
Today I’m going through the following and hope to narrow down the culprit: 1) Remove rear tires and check EPB adjustment. 2) Rotate tires to see if vibration follows 3) Inspect all drivetrain components for visual wear and tightness. -
Driveline Vibration
Thoughts on this vibration? Starts @ 30”ish” mph under load & continues through 75 mph. At 40 mph I apply light throttle to smooth out the vibration. At speeds above 45, I let off the throttle to reduce the vibration. Feels like it’s coming from the front but I’m not certain. I hear... -
Low Coolant Light
Do I keep the expansion tank lid off while doing this or only remove to add coolant? -
Low Coolant Light
Update: issue only persists then the heater is being used. Drove 100 miles today without heater (brutal BTW) and no issues. I either have a failing heater core or an airlock in the heater lines. Im guessing it’s in the rear since that’s the intermittent heat. -

Low Coolant Light
Not sure if it helps, but my rear heat is intermittent. It’ll blow hot for a while, then cold. Front is hot 24/7 -
Low Coolant Light
Do you mind sharing a pic of this valve? I’ve got a 5.0 as well & haven’t found the valve @txfromwi shared in the pic in page 1 of this thread. -
Low Coolant Light
Update: When cold, coolant is extremely low -almost none in the expansion tank. When I open the cap to fill, it releases an air lock and coolant seeps back into the expansion tank. Almost enough to reach the cold fill line. -

Low Coolant Light
How would I go about removing the air pockets? I’m guessing the bleed procedure which has been posted, but I can’t find the bleeder valve on the front crossover. I don’t have a pressure system so I’ll have to do it the old school way. -
Low Coolant Light
New water pump, coolant crossovers & radiator last May (+/- 12k miles ago) They’re all under warranty so I’m having the shop who did the work take a look at them Monday.
