    sunroof rattling

    Mine rattles too. I hate creeks and rattles and I soon found out Land Rovers are genetically predisposed to rattles and creeks. But like Ryan in Oregon said earlier, I just open it up a little and close it again and that usually does the trick. Until a day or two later when it starts rattling...

    Shake in Steering Wheel When Braking Around 50 - 55mph

    Thanks all for the replies. I will eventually get the thing looked at. I have a sneaky suspicion that it probably is the rotors, but I will be checking out the other things too. di LR3, let me know what happens with your situation. Sounds a lot like mine. I like to be prepared for the...

    What did you do to your LR3 today?

    Nice. I did the same. Although I have the spotlight, the medium range lenses on mine. I'm around a lot of twisty mountain roads. Not many straight-aways. I got that same lighting package, cut the junky road lights and put Hellas in too. Here's a link to a picture. AR's Hella Brush Bar Setup

    Shake in Steering Wheel When Braking Around 50 - 55mph

    So, when I hit my brakes anywhere between 55 and 50, my steering wheel begins to shake a bit. If I let up the brakes for a moment the shake eases up and goes away. I did just have the pads replaced and was prepared to replace the rotors too. Dealer said "your rotors look fine, just do the...

    What did you do to your LR3 today?

    I removed the nerdy wheel rock throwers. The plastic rock protectors on my 2005 became brittle. Pretty sure I broke them in the 18" snow drifts last winter. Oh well. Car looks higher now!

    What did you do to your LR3 today?

    Plus we haven't heard what you did today. Let's hear! My guess is cleaning was involved.

    Windshield replacement

    So here's my update. I got back to LR3 today to find out that the install looks great. Defrost lines and rain sensor all installed too. Not only are there no imperfections, but the glass is OEM "Pilkington" too. Overall, very satisfied with my repair.

    Windshield replacement

    I'm currently out of town, so I can't check out the glass, but I'll post when I check it out for any imperfections. As far as the deductible goes, Geico is paying any amount after what the deductible won't cover. In my case, they're paying around $130.

    Windshield replacement

    So, I came back from a week-long trip to find the little star in the glass of my windshield now 14 inches long. Jesus. So, I called the dealer and they told me they would love to replace my windshield for me, but they would charge more than it would cost to do it myself. They informed me it...

    Removing a stuck hitch receiver?

    Yeah same thing that happened to mine. I was scared to tow anything with it, because of the orange being exposed. Let us know what happens.

    What did you do to your LR3 today?

    Loaded and unloaded the trunk with all the seats down four times today. Moving everything to a storage unit... not fun.

    Updating Navigation Maps

    I've never tried to take the cover off, but that's cool. Once you figure out the routine, it takes less than 20 seconds.

    Interesting way to access the Extra, EXTRA level!

    Interesting. I've bottomed out before in a marsh I was driving through one time and I got put into the super mode. I figured that was how it worked. If only there was a practical way to access it other than carry around a wood block I suppose.

    CO guys, how up to date is your Nav?

    I think everyone should have a smart phone. Android is no question the way of the future.

    Removing a stuck hitch receiver?

    Well, I had a similar issue happen. I talked to locksmiths etc, all with no luck. I even asked the dealer if they could get it off. No avail. They told me they could drill it out for me, I declined obviously. So, I just drilled it out myself and it popped right off. Ridiculous.

    Check Out My new Grill

    I think that each person is entitled to their own perspective of beauty, but I really don't like it. I don't mind the special edition honey comb look, but the chrome is just way too much. But like I said, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

    Lights package

    Yeah I've put some Hellas in the A-Frame. The lighting is awesome. They make a few different lenses for one for distance, one for close, one for in between the two, which is what I have. I have to get a machine shop to make some aluminum blocks for the Hella bracket to mount. The whole...

    Ipod connecting cable for LR3 center console

    Touching on what huelsmma said, a basic headphone jack can only output 128mb/sec worth of music. That's basically "radio" quality. For an audiophile like myself, you have to tap into the USB or ipod connector to get CD and studio quality. Many say well... "why would I care about getting...

    Ipod connecting cable for LR3 center console

    Hey there. I did a really good install for mine. Scroll down a but you'll see my post. http://bit.ly/9u3Gap If you want the easy way out, get this, plug it in behind the console where the 12v plug is, and run a male to male headphone cable from the ipod charger to the aux in hole. Ipod...

    Smoked Side Markers

    Yeah touche on the breaking part. Mine broke off when I was installing. I ended up removing the metal clip from the old one and was able to stick it in. What a b1tc# that was. I got my on Amazon, little more than what you paid, but cheaper then what they look like they're going for on...

    Wanted-LR3 trailer lighting installation instructions

    I've done the install. I don't have the instructions, but I do remember a bit from the install. I remember the left rear tail light has to be removed, and basically the wire harness connects there. Then when you look under the car in back there's a rubber grommet that gets pushed out and...

    Smoked Side Markers

    I've got them on mine. I have the Navy blue color, almost looks black (Can't remember the LR name). With a darker color car, I think the orange sticks out too much. That's why I did the smoked out ones. If you would like I can take a picture.
