Bunch of error codes. Alternator?
I wasted half my morning trying to figure this out. Best I can tell you are correct - you need to get DAN1103, and forget all the stupid LR part numbers. It appears the box you received has wrong labels attached. Here's what I had learned over the past couple of hours: I double-checked a... -
Bunch of error codes. Alternator?
LR023421G is a separate label, stuck on top of the DAN986 label. I think LR023421G is wrong, i.e. doesn't belong on that box. Note the LR091107G label at the left. The 3 interchange numbers below it (replaces xxx) also don't align with anything for the LR4. The ONLY label on the box which... -
Bunch of error codes. Alternator?
Can you post a photo of the Denso box / label that shows both LR023421G and DAN986? Seems LR023421G should be correct, and DAN986 is wrong... has to be a disconnect somewhere. -
Bunch of error codes. Alternator?
Assuming we are talking about 2010-2013 LR4 with V8 engine, Microcat is showing LR023421, which supercedes to LR065246, according to the dealer websites. I'm seeing a bunch of different numbers all supposedly interchanging. For example, RM Euro is showing LR091107 when you search for LR065246... -
Battery Issue? AGM Lifetime?
For the people who routinely have batteries fail at 2-3 years... anyone try a full-time desulfator like the PulseTech PowerPulse? I use these on all my vehicles and batteries generally last 6-10 years, but I'm not in Arizona with 120°F ambients either. If the vehicle will be parked more than a... -
Battery Issue? AGM Lifetime?
Two INCHES taller? Pretty sure that won't fit. I'm not sure why most people would need any more than the H8/49 unless spending a lot of time running high-consumption accessories when parked for hours or days out of the sun. ;) -
Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues
Unless there is significant oil in the cooling system, and/or corrosion, I'd avoid using cooling system "cleaners" entirely. Fill/drain a couple of times to flush with water before the final fill with 50/50 mix of OE/dealer antifreeze, which is not expensive, and it's not an item I'd opt to save... -
Newbie to the LR4 - GAP tool a must?
This. ^^^ If you are either DIY'er, or plan to go offroad, it would be HIGHLY recommended. If the truck never leaves the city and you hand the dealership blank checks, meh, you can probably live without it. I can't afford to pay the dealer, I don't trust most indy shops, and I'm full DIY... -
Austin, TX Mechanic Needed
Did you ever confirm if it actually needs the timing chain job? Some dealers/shops are looking for work and may hear things that aren't there... o_O -
Switching to LEDs for headlights 2010 lr4
I don't think this is accurate. Assuming you are talking about aftermarket LED lights, they may not be entirely plug+play, the color may be different but not necessarily improve visibility. What color temperature LED's are you considering? Anything more than ~5000K won't help you see at night... -
Looking to purchase - 2012 - LR4 - Advice
Hey, the LR4 has a hardwire iPod input in the center console! That's all we needed. Our entire music catalog is on an iPod that remains in the truck at all times. The standard stereo sounds pretty decent, although I'd like to hear the fancy version with subwoofer offered in LUX (?) models. We... -
LR4 V8 skipped time finally at 245k
There's no reason any given mileage is "the end of the road". With proper maintenance these trucks should run a very long time. The number of people with over 200kmi (in less than 10 years) says a lot, IMO. It's not like this is the 1970's where 200k meant the vehicle was worn out. :albertein -
Engine takes forever to warm up
That is bizarre. Temperature should be controlled by the thermostat, so even if the fan is on all the time, it should reach operating temp rapidly. :eek: -
Another LR4 Saved from Coolant Death
Has anyone correlated the plastic failures with coolant change interval? This almost looks like the pH of the coolant could be causing issues with the plastic, due to time, not miles. -
2016 cost for replacement engine SCV6
Price will vary dramatically depending on who is doing the work (dealer, indy shop, DIY) and the engine source (used, rebuilt, or new). A used engine installed as DIY could be under $10k ($6k-$8k for the engine, plus misc parts/fluids, and dozens of hours of your labor). Anything else, ±$15k... -
Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues
Thanks for the photo - very helpful! I can see the difference on all 3. Is the LR tool OE or aftermarket? Also - does this mean JLR used a unique, non-industry-standard driver for the head bolts on this AJ133 engine?!!! o_O -
There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)
Coolant manifolds sounds like the plastic pipes we are discussing above. Same part, different name. Although I do wonder what "crossovers" she thought you were referring to. o_O -
There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)
Crap. Yet another part to buy. At least I haven't installed the front & rear coolant pipes I bought last year. I want to do 1 large job, not 10 small ones. Thanks for the info! :( -
There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)
Wait. The thermostat housing is plastic too? :eek: -
Need a Second Key
I have no idea. The Foxwell being able to do this for <$200 was news to me. It would have to be a tool with JLR-specific software (similar to Foxwell/Schwaben). No generic OBD-2 reader will have capability to clone keys. Makes me wonder what else Foxwell can (or can't) do vs the ±$500 GAP IID... -
Need a Second Key
Glad you got the eBay fob working. Remember that if the fob battery dies, the "emergency" starting function described in the owner's manual will not work. You MUST have a good fob battery for the reprogrammed eBay key. For the metal door key, you can buy them from the dealer pre-cut for your... -
2011 LR4 front air strut replacement
Have you checked / replaced the front valve block? Are you certain it's a failed airbag/shock assembly? -
Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues
It's the factory Land Rover manual, ~265MB PDF file. Should be a link somewhere on the forum to download it. The manual states that a torque multiplier capable of 600Nm is required to achieve the 270° rotation. Or a 3/4" breaker bar with cheater pipe. -
Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues
Dumb question: Isn't the same lock required to tighten the crank bolt? Nevermind, I see there are complicated tools (303-1437, 303-1438) in the FSM which appears to use the pulley bolts and external bracing, so there is no torque applied through the crankshaft. I'd try a high-torque impact... -
Shaking brakes
Slots or dimples rarely cause issues of any sort, and no cracking either. Drilled rotors can sometimes crack at the rotors, although this does not automatically mean the rotor must be replaced. However for non-racing use, there is not much point to drilled rotors, particularly on a 3-ton truck...
