    Suspension noise (possibly lower control arm)

    I wonder if there would be a difference in ride from just replacing the shocks vs the whole assembly. On my bags if its left in 4X4 height it will creep down to normal ride height after a few days. The shop that quoted me air struts wanted $525 in labor for remove/replace each assembly.

    Suspension noise (possibly lower control arm)

    A shop quoted $7,100 to replace all 4 with Land Rover brand struts. Silly asf. The rears cost more I think because they are higher capacity, $1,125 each vs $1,082 each for the front, both Land Rover brand.

    What brand air struts have you gone through in the front?

    Dash Cams?

    I had thoughts of replacing the camera at the top-middle of the windshield. That is a great spot, its hidden already with a black border in the glass. I don't need it for anything unless its tied to cruise control.

    Land Rover recall - fuel smell

    I called the dealer and work was done in 2022 for the gas tank leak recall and I bought it in 2023. I might complaint to the gov site because if Land Rover fixed it then I wouldn't have a problem. Its been 28,000 miles since the repair, seems early for a tank seal failure. I know the gas can be...

    Land Rover recall - fuel smell

    0 Unrepaired recalls on my rig according to nhtsa. That could mean the Land Rover fix doesn't hold-up or there is some other problem. And the gas pump turning off far too early today sounds related according to other threads, not sure how though.

    Land Rover recall - fuel smell

    I'm starting to smell fuel after filling up and going off-roading, especially today because I smelt fuel inside the truck. Then I pop the tailgate and smelled fuel back there near the bumper. I didn't see it dripping so I lit the stove to cook steaks anyway and no problems lol. That recall is...

    Cable routing for roof antenna

    On mine the coax runs through door jamb no problems. I've got a 7db antenna magnetic mount that works pretty good with an amp inside.

    Front diff right seal

    That looks major. The t-cases are pretty robust except the shift-on-the-fly wore out on mine. It started to bind while shifting out of 4H and into 4L. If I stop and shift it doesn't have a problem. But that axle shaft looks like it was not all the way installed, that must be why your boot...

    2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?

    That control arm looked dangerous. If that came apart on the freeway it would be a rough experience even with a good landing.

    LR4 Summer 50/50 Tire Recs

    You'd be surprised what the LR4 can do. Since I'm going to stop overlanding it makes sense but I've ran street tires all over the mountains and deserts of NV and UT. I had the idea that it can launch on the street harder with soft tires like the PZeros. They won't last more than 10k mi but those...

    LR4 Summer 50/50 Tire Recs

    I was thinking about Pirelli P Zeros or Michelin Pilot Sports. But another side is thinking about buying 5 18" rims and KO2's. I'm also thinking about BFG's Trail Terrain for the 19's but I want white lettering on the outside.

    Brake Problem

    The left caliper could be sticky. You could inspect the pads and see if there is heat checking or more wear on the LHS vs RHS. Realistically rain wouldn't impact that, but temperature might.

    Suspension noise (possibly lower control arm)

    I'm curious about your swaybar maintenance. I think I hear a slight squeak noise in the front right when off-roading but its so faint its hard to tell where its coming from. Were there any noises or symptoms that the swaybar end-links or bushings were going out?

    2014 Land Rover LR4, suspension faults after compressor and valve block work

    Yeah, I've been bit by ****** "Land Rover" independents which includes a "Land Rover certified mechanic". Its all bs, they have some high school kids in there doing the work. Out front they park land rovers, land rover this, land rover that inside. Lots of shams out there.

    2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?

    If it were me I'd replace the LCA's and if the bump problem doesn't go away then look at the UCA's. There are LCA's sold to be compatible with Land Rover that have been known to fail completely and nobody wants that. I don't remember the brand I went with but it was said to be the same...

    2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?

    I did the water pump too on mine at 97k mi as well as changing ALL fluids new lower LCA's and more. It doesn't ride harsh at all. Its so buttah smooth that I gotta keep the speed down over speed bumps because I think that even though its smooth and cushy now over the bumps, if I keep doing it I...

    HD package retrofit

    That trooper sounds fun. A fully locked LR4 would one-up it I'd think unless the Trooper has more ground clearance. For the front steering resistance, I had the idea that I'll need to install an aftermarket power steering cooler. Previous experience on road coarses is when I work the steering...

    HD package retrofit

    Nice work. The lockers are a great feature. The front brake modulation was cool at first and it still is but it has limitations, been thinking about getting a front locker. ARB is pretty much the only one and it requires its own air compressor to be installed too. Ideally an e-locker with a...

    Expert Level - Charging System Fault 2016 LR4

    I'm curious about that part. There is a bare wire hanging off it and its connector with BMS written on it somewhere and I'm constantly handling it to disconnect the battery so I thought if I ever break it while handling it then I'll know what I need to buy lol. What is the specific Land Rover...

    Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM

    Yeah, generative AI is terrible. For the 4k RPM limiter, I've never had that on any of my cars/trucks, but I suspect Land Rover deemed it abusive to sit there and rev the engine. I like doing it, but with the side window down I can hear a lot more engine noise above 4K RPM while in gear.

    Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM

    Are you in park during this time? Is there reduced power too? I've noticed that on mine it wont rev past 4K for some reason, but in gear no problems past 4K.

    2012 LR4 - locating coolant leak

    That sounds like a good diagnosis. The T-stat and some other coolant parts can fail too that are in the front of the engine. At 97k mi I did quite a few coolant part replacements that included a radiator, t-stat, wpump and other coolant tubes were replaced besides the xovers. I'd have your...

    LR4 5.0 V8 - recent timing chain service with 4 new camshaft adjusters - still seems somewhat noisy??

    On my engine I had the chains and camshaft actuators replaced a few months after posting (2023) and the noise is mostly gone. It is very quiet compared to the link I had. On startup the engine will have a metallic knock that sucks and can be difficult on the drivers side, but it goes away a...

    What is this blanking cover in the dashboard

    I haven't been in there yet. One guy drilled a hole in the firewall right below the brake line on the drivers side to route wiring. If you remove the brake component dust cover in the engine bay, the brake lines are exposed horizontally and the hole was drilled under those lines and there are no...
