J.D. Power dependability survey, ouch
I can confirm JEEP is where it should be, although maybe that ranking is even a bit generous. Jeep Overland lemonlawed after 5k miles. ZERO issues with LR4 after @7k.... I always thought the LR reviews were a bit harsh....It would be interesting to see if there was some data per... -
Loadspace accessories
Rover Connection (BP Utah) has been pretty good for me. I found the rigid loadspace protector (EBF500080) off craigslist, slightly used, but I couldn't beat the price. I have the mat on my older rover and it works well, but you only have to have a major liquid leak in the back once to... -
Installing hitch mount bike rack
obviously, you can get them anywhere, but here are the links to Atlantic British http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/LR040248G.cfm Here is a cheaper alternative: http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/LR019990ABP.cfm If you get the OEM version, make sure you get the newer variant as it does not... -
Oh no!
Just looking at my lr4's nuts, it appears that they are a more standard size than the larger nuts on the D1's. I cant remember the size (27mm?), but Discount Tires didn't have the exact sized socket and ended up damaging all of the lug nuts. I noticed it a few months later when playing around... -
Che belle!
umberto: will those wheels and tire combo fit under the car? I think they are about 1 inch greater in diameter. Looking forward to seeing the pictures -
FINALLY! Pictures of my LR4
I opted for thule bars and a yakima box. If my garage would allow me to park with david's set up, i would have been very tempted. That being said, the interior cargo area of the rover is very sizable, but there are some things you would prefer to always have outside the vehicle (jerry cans)... -

2015
David, Other than briefly looking at it online, I haven't checked out the new RR. Beyond my budget, but have you checked out some of the specs? Like the old RR, the clearance is pretty impressive. Ground clearance (raised): 9.5 inches vs 11.6 (LR4/RR) Wading depth: 27.6 vs 35.4 the... -

nice looking truck. I loved the older Isuzu Troopers :biggrin: -

2015
Give me the diesel, the d5 badge and perhaps a expedition option or something (HD lockers, increased height, ability to override certain suspension options, 18 inch wheels with 65 profile tires, swing tire carrier or increased spaced underneath vehicle to handle spare). But please wait until... -
Would love your opinion.
So, I had a 2012 Jeep Overland for about 6 months before my new LR4. I had various problems with it right out the gate (within the first 500 miles) and then after about 4-5 months the air suspension failed. They tried to fix it and were unsuccessful. After they had it for about a total of 2... -
2013 Land Rover LR4: SEMA Build
PALR4, Action shots of your new rover playing in the snow would be well received. Especially for those of us in California! -
Fuel tank capacity- Sucks
David, I remember...too bad your rack would prevent me putting my car in the garage...you have a nice setup. -
2013 Land Rover LR4: SEMA Build
David, Do you ever encounter rocks on your off road excursions? I don't think there is much at Hollister IIRC. I like the LTZ's, and for traction, I think they would be great. My main fear is sidewall protection. The 19's are pretty darn thin. On my D1, I have fairly un aggressive 245/75/16... -
2013 Land Rover LR4: SEMA Build
David, I agree, that was sort of where i was going. Unless I was willing to pay up for the rear bumper with swing tire carrier, I was unsure if it was really worth making the investment of 18 in wheels vs your approach with the LTZ's. It looks like Umbertob has thought this out in a bit more... -
2013 Land Rover LR4: SEMA Build
awesome link. thanks for posting. Also looked through the entire posting on overland. fascinating...especially the thoughts on how much that beast now weighs! i am in analysis paralysis mode on getting new tires. I am not ready to make my LR4 even remotely a dedicated trail rig, nor do i... -
Fuel tank capacity- Sucks
I had similar questions when I got my truck. http://www.landroverworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=23425 Bottom line, for a car with such lousy MPG, they should have a bigger tank. If I fill up when the reserve light comes on, I am usually putting a little over 18 gallons back in...if I am... -
IIDTool / EAS Control module for LR4
Cant wait for you to buy it and provide a review :smile: -
Replacement Tires 19 inch - Suggestions & Question
I certainly have been in snow conditions that have warranted chains. The day I saw the RRS with chains was not one of them...it was sad. That being said, not sure I have ever been on hwy 80 to Tahoe when the road was open and an lr4 would need chains, but your mileage may vary... -
Replacement Tires 19 inch - Suggestions & Question
About two weeks ago i took my lr4 up the back route towards Snow Summit (Southern California ski resort). I have a LR4 HSE with HDP and the stock 19inch conti's. It was dumping all day, with enforced chain control for most vehicles. 4x4's, not awd, got a pass and while required to carry... -
