    Disappointed in Wix

    Interesting to me that on the FCP web site, the only filter they list as NOT being made in China is the Hengst. Mann, UFI, and even "Genuine Land Rover" all list China as the origin.

    Disappointed in Wix

    Glad, in a sad way, that I’m not alone. What is considered a good filter then? Go strict JLR, or Hengst, Purolator, Mahle, or…? And how do you know you’re not getting counterfeit? Amazon lists Hengst filters from Atlantic British for $18, but at the actual AB web site, they don’t even list that...

    Disappointed in Wix

    Changed the oil yesterday at around 4k miles but over a year, and when I pulled the filter, it left the bottom plastic in the filter housing, and left me staring at the state of the adhesive on the filter. Makes me wonder if the adhesive had given out some time ago.

    I’ve got Cooper 275/70R18s on mine, with some trimming.

    Pics/advice on your rear license plate/camera relocations

    Amazon camera, mounted to the spare rack with a piece of heater hose so it pokes out of the center of the spare. You can see the vinyl tube encasing the cable where it joins the bumper at the hinge point at lower right.

    No issues??

    Well, amazingly, Clarkson's alignment wasn't really off by much. He had a little too much toe-in, but TBH it seemed like .35 degrees was within reason. Given how hard that hit was, I'm impressed by the tires as well as the suspension.

    No issues??

    Yeah, alignment already scheduled. Bushings seemed OK, or at least there was no fluid leaking or anything like that.

    "Hello everyone! Greetings from China to the Land Rover world!"

    There is some good advice on this forum about how to keep the vehicle reliable. One of the things you will want to look for is advice on how to replace the coolant crossover pipes if that was not already done and is needed for whatever engine you have.

    Hello! Wow, it looks like you have taken your land rover to some amazing places.

    No issues??

    I have had my 2016 LR4 for a few years now. Clarkson (that's his name) has been pretty cantankerous on all 5 of the longer trips we have taken. Something has come up every time, often in the form of a DTC related to lean bank 1, or misfiring on a cylinder, or more recently to a post-cat bank 1...

    Brake fluid flush

    Decided to flush my brake fluid, since it was looking a little brown. I used a power bleeder, and pumped it up to about 12psi. Got all the brown fluid out, but… Man, I swear air was somehow getting into the hose around the bleeder valve. I sat and watched several of them for what seemed like...

    O2 sensor part #s or positions

    Answering my own Q above for posterity’s sake. Passenger side is right side of vehicle if part numbers instead refer to L/R designations.

    O2 sensor part #s or positions

    Couple of dumb questions. 2016 LR4 HSE, 3L SCV6. Which is Bank 1? Driver or passenger side? Next, I’m trying to map the following part numbers I got from Atlantic British against their proper positions on the vehicle, if anyone can help. Bosch 12018 = Bosch 16032 = Bosch 17128 = Denso...

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    Very kind of you, as always. I think you covered it in this post back in September, and it did look like it should be covered. SALAG2V65GA788750 But even if you tell me it should be covered, I still would have to talk to a Service Manager (which they won’t let me do) and persuade him/her. No...

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    Geez… Land Rover Portland won’t even talk on the phone with me about the trouble codes, TSBs or the extended coverage on the O2 sensors unless I bring it in. Which is fine, but… I live 30 miles from there, and I have to drop off the vehicle, can’t wait around for it, and it could be anywhere...

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    Strange. They had me update the firmware (although it already seemed to be up to date), and I still cannot find those sensors in the complete list.

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    So does ANYONE see the position 3 O2 sensors in their GAP tool?

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    It’s better, but not night and day. IIRC, you can request different focuses for the tune, and I focused a bit more on the mileage side than the giddy up side. I can’t say it helped my mileage drastically, either.

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    That would be helpful! I found this: https://www.tsbsearch.com/Land-Rover/SSM72556 The TSB specifically says to not replace the like sensor on bank 2 if bank 1 is the only one showing an issue, so I guess that answers one of my questions. Guess I’ll be calling LR tomorrow. Thanks for pointing...

    O2 sensor life, replacement strategy, fuel trim

    Got the following codes on a short trip today. Previously, I’ve had issues with short- and long- term fuel trims on Bank 1 as well, but too intermittently to really pin down. 1. It strikes me as a little odd that the heater circuit and the lambda both would register as off, especially since...

    Backup camera format and resolution?

    Hi, all, When I installed the rear spare tire mount, I had to re-do the rear camera. It was even more important because the tire substantially blocks the rear view mirror. So I got one of these. The camera works fine, but the contrast has gotten pretty crappy and greens appear pink. So I’d...

    Cable routing for roof antenna

    Yeah, the A pillar is a great suggestion. Thanks! I had googled, but didn’t think to look for other wiring routing. IIRC there’s a firewall pass-through on the driver’s side. I’ll just have to figure that out, and how to cut and recriminp the antenna connector which will be too big for any...

    Cable routing for roof antenna

    Hey, all. I’m wanting to be able to put a mag mount ham antenna on my roof rack for remote trips. I’d be interested in knowing how anyone else routed the cable for something like this? I’d love to be able to leave the cable in place and think that wherever it exits the cab is waterproof.

    Tricks for getting the facia off of the front seats?

    Hey, all. I’d like to mount some electronics under one of the front seats. But the plastic panel that sits behind your ankles when driving that presumably gives you access to that area…is there a trick to getting that off without breaking whatever tabs are holding it?
