    Transmission Fault

    It is hard to give advice on your next steps without some more info. Do you have a GAP IIDtool? Have you read the error codes? They may help narrow down your issues. If you attempt any DIY with these, it is highly recommended that you get one. - Could be as simple as needing new fluid, and a...

    Your compressor runs - but is it pumping enough air? Maybe not. Is your desiccant old/saturated/chunky/powdery? Replace? Is one of your valve blocks stuck open? Rebuild/replace?

    Battery went dead, anything to watch for settings wise?

    I think just clock and maybe radio presets. I am pretty sure my radio presets stick around after a battery disconnect - maybe it depends how long it was dead? Are all your saved GPS settings there? Like home address, etc?

    Tpms

    Original sensors = 1 or more being too dead to communicate. (Just maybe showed some "life" on test) My money is on needing new sensors (or remove/disable). Good luck!

    Tpms

    Are the TPMS sensors in each wheel original to the LR3? If they are not original, when were they replaced? Did they test the sensor in the spare? If original, 11 years means they are NOT good anymore. Not sure how the tire shop tested them, but sensors rarely last much past 10 years. Replace or...

    2005 LR3 Key Fob Replacement or Battery

    Yes, GAP IIDTOOL BT. Already owned the tool. Took mere minutes. Tool has paid for itself with repairs/mods I've done, even before factoring key programming. Every LR3 owner should own one. It will continue to return on my investment. US sellers are around $500. I bought mine from UK for...

    Replacements for LRN0753 (Transfer Case Fluid)?

    Hi, chipping away at my research and services needed for our "new" 07 LR3. Having trouble finding LRN0753 for the transfer case, learned it may be superseded by IYK500010. Places seem to be out, backordered, or NLA. Couldn't find info here, or other forums. The search for IYK500010 led me...
