    terrible squeeking and creaking

    I asked him was he replacing the whole arm or just the bushings and he said he ordered just the bushings. How do I go about getting him to replace the whole arm do you suppose??

    terrible squeeking and creaking

    Just received call from the shop...both front control arm rear bushings were shot (which would explain clanking noise) and apparently the parking brake cable assembly at the left rear came loose and was dangling causing a noise whenever I backed up it was hitting the tire. Bushings were covered...

    Can you get a nav as an add-on option for the 07 LR3 SE?

    I hardwired my aftermarket unit...granted it doesn't show the wheel placement but its navigation is better, controls my ipod touch/xm, plays movies and also has bluetooth (which is better than the stock crap) http://www.landroverworld.org/gallery/files/1/1/8/7/2/IMG00064-20100426-0729.jpg

    Towing - Who has towed what?

    When I was searching this last summer...I found people using a solid shank 2 1/2 inch rise which gave a 4" drop and flipped it over giving me the rise I needed for a 6000lb boat. Just have to be careful with not overloading the tongue down.

    Help convincing wife in taking LR3 offroad

    Thank you everybody for the feedback...unfortunately this will have to be put on hold as it appears my marriage of only 1 year (just this month) is in shambles and she's not happy. I know couples go through this of questioning/doubting things (especially young people) and hoping they didn't...

    Anyone around Tampa, FL?

    Looking to use my LR3 for what it was made to do and do some off-roading, however I haven't found any local groups and it appears my dealer is more interested in selling to the luxury crowd so they can get to/from the mall.

    Help convincing wife in taking LR3 offroad

    The worst week of my life was when I brought my new to me 2008 Yukon Denali home and she hated it. So we went back to the drawing board on shopping for an suv and happened to be on a Porsche/Land Rover lot when I stumbled upon a CPO LR3. I did some research on them and decided thats the luxury...

    Help convincing wife in taking LR3 offroad

    Say what you want, I'm 30 and only been married 1 year so she (being 25 yrs) still gets everything she wants and typically gets her way with things. I am trying to convince her to allow me to find some fellow Land Rover members in Tampa area to go offroading somewhere with them. She keeps...

    80 to 75mph noise

    I know this was an old post but I have started to notice this noise every day on my 06 with the fact I drive 75-80 mph everyday on the highway. You here it when accelerating or keeping foot on gas in that range but once you let off it goes away. Its a faint high pitch noise that can be heard...

    Thinking of Buying a Land Rover

    Just an FYI...a new sunroof assembly costs around 2100 (I just had mine replaced under warranty) but it may just need a recaliberation by just holding down the sunroof button for like 10 seconds. Depending on which cayenne you drove (cayenne, cayenne s, cayenne turbo, or gts) they can be...

    Thinking of Buying a Land Rover

    Thinking of Buying a Land Rover

    Seems high for a v6 and mileage...I was fortunate to buy a 06 se w/ 31k miles certified back in early 09 for 25k. I agree there is no other SUV I would drive...mine too is my daily driver. I put 31k miles on it in my first year owning it. I had a 4runner as a loaner once and it felt very...

    Bluetooth problem

    I had my module replaced as well under warranty after visiting as new dealer and it works well with Blackberry Bold, IPhone and blackberry curve. At times I would get the "it sounds like you're sitting in a garbage can" but it seems fixed.
