How do you completely delete TPMS on 2007 LR3?, + other minor issue.
I disabled my TPMS using my GAP IIDtool Other tools may also be able to do this, but I don't own other tools I did not remove any hardware (except the wheel sensors of course, they are now rubber stems) My light has not come on since, as expected They didn't do it right - I don't know what...- douglastic

What would you do?
I value keeping my LR3 much more than any book would. What would I replace it with? and for how much $? Seems like you have already made your decision. Are you really seeking opinions? Or just validation.- douglastic

What would you do?
Why are your 2 options "coil overs or scrap yard?" so, $1500 for coils . . . or throw it in the trash? How much $ to have a trusted shop inspect - replace/repair your compressor, air tank, lines, or whatever else is needed to get that system 100%? Seems you have already done 75% that effort...- douglastic

Not a mechanic what do you guys think the diagnostic read means
If you paid for coolant system bleeding, then return to have them confirm they got it right. These are difficult to purge correctly, but you should get what you paid for.- douglastic

Diff Fluid
Our diffs are the same (non-locking) I use Castrol Syntrax Longlife 75w-90, 2 bottles @ $16/ea on amazon. Front: .69L, Rear: 1.16L Easy DIY job using gravity and a long tube/funnel, or a cheap hand pump- douglastic

How to add Bluetooth, etc., to 2006 LR3 HSE
I just did this - for a grand total of $17 I now have "factory" BT streaming audio! $11 for BT, and $6 for a new AUX plug. This item fits the 3/8" hole perfectly: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LXOIVKI Could not be happier! Completely hidden, auto-on/off, easy connection, OEM sound quality...- douglastic

Lost key
when you buy a new key at a dealer, you provide your VIN and then LR makes/sends a key for that vehicle. There may be independent shops that can do this for you also - I think there is one here in California who has done it for customers for less $ than dealers charge. I suggest maybe trying...- douglastic

Lost key
Where are you located? I have never heard of the "2 key minimum". Also, any key ordered thru a dealer should be closer to $300/ea, and is VIN locked so would work 100% - no "ifs".- douglastic

Suspension Problem, I haven't one! LR3
most likely - depending HOW cheap your eBay special was - you got a dud. what is the seller's return policy? What is damaged on your original? More than just o-rings I assume? I would trust a used/junkyard valve block over unknown brands, then refresh with a new o-ring kit. might save you some...- douglastic

2006 LR3 Heater Issues
Some thoughts: - do you smell coolant? - is your level good, do you need top-ups? - is the engine overheating? - when was the thermostat last changed? - how is your water pump? (btw: you could still have trapped air, LR3s are difficult to purge)- douglastic

Tow bar welded in? Need help!
My spare tire is in right now, so can't easily get a look for you - maybe someone w/o a spare in can confirm? But the little pin you just circled is definitely not your "rusted plug of concern". That little release pin on the front (that pops the D-shape pin out) is inaccessible to welding once...- douglastic

Tow bar welded in? Need help!
That's not the pin. Directly below your red arrow is a D shaped pin in a rectangular hole. Between the safety chain loops, very low on the hitch receptacle. That D shaped pin is the part that retracts. Seeing how crusty your seems to be, a few taps on the pin should maybe loosen it. Maybe try...- douglastic

Pulled the trigger on an LR3 / Disco 3 HSE
Just following the manual would be a good start? Castrol 5w30, every 7,500 miles. Or follow your friend's schedule/spec. Or use whatever GF3 5w30 you like. Mann, Mahle, Wix filters are good. Mine is getting higher mileage so I do Castrol GTX every 5k. And Wix for price/local availability.- douglastic
