    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    So........tested the Amazon replacement brake switch I installed a few months back. No continuity in either the brake light or cruise control circuits (there are 4 plug contacts). Replaced it with a 'superior' Amazon replacement ($CAD 43 instead of $95 OEM) and after a 400km road trip the faults...

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    No, alternator is OEM, original. Should check its output directly, but working on the car is difficult at present

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Yes, checked codes again today and all the same. I had the same thought re. The brake switch. Obvs I kept the original OEM starter button, but it seems not the brake switch (thought I had). Battery re-charge test got interrupted. Will replace the brake switch and then probs time for a new...

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Spoke too soon Same codes back with a vengeance. Will try recharging the battery out of the vehicle as suggested. ABS connections at the module seem okay. Is there a way to definitively check if its an ABSmodule issue?

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Huh, looks like the LR Gods took pity on me. Had a look at the ABS module and pressed on all the plugs to make sure none were loose (all seemed okay). Voila! All dash warning lights gone (they were resetting after engine off and then coming on again after 10 mins driving). Fingers crossed........

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Ah okay, I stand corrected. On my third battery in 8yrs of ownership, so strange that this issue has not occurred previously, but hey ** i.e. time before last it kept draining flat and had to boost before I replaced it. But worth confirming as you say

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Okay, so that could explain why when I press the starter button, sometimes I need to do it 2-3 times before anything happens? That was the case tonight or crappy Amazon starter switch and brake switch are acting up.....probs not though as this issue has continued more or less, a bit...

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    12.4v engine off, 14.2v engine idling, 14.2v engine idling with headlights on, AC on, radio on. So battery looks okay. Faults are still intermittent, so will see if they resolve themselves after clearing codes

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Huh....... that's interesting. There were two brake switch codes which is odd. I had occasional hesitation where I had to press the start button a couple of times to start the car several months back. Replaced the start button and brake switch with Amazon versions........... still have...

    Disappointed in Wix

    China seems to be viewed like 'made in Japan' was in the '70's. Nothing necessarily wrong with made in China in my opinion. Their EV's are world beating it seems, shame no one gets to drive them in North America, although Canadian gvt is allowing 50,000 in

    Disappointed in Wix

    These days the cost of an oil filter from LR is comparable to e.g. Fram, so I tend to go with LR. Never had problems with Fram. Used to get Mann or Mahle that were fine too. The Wix filter coming apart???? I figure cheap and oil filter is not a good combo

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Hey thanks, The alternator is original, so is on borrowed time. I have the inevitable oil leak down the front of the engine on the LHS (valve covers / timing chain covers?) - have been monitoring it re. killing the alternator. Will have another peak.

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    Hey, thanks. Time to track down my trusty voltmeter. Replaced the battery twice during ownershop and never had this particular issue, but will rule it out first, as you suggest

    Replacing the accessory drive belt?

    I got a similar tool to the one above off amazon. It worked fine. Just take your time. You may need the help of a stout screwdriver to provide some additional leverage but its not that hard a job. Just take care to not damage the new belt. If your are doing that I would consider also replacing...

    Multiple dash warnings: Stability control not available / emergency brake assist not available / gearbox fault

    2010 V8, 221k km The dash warnings came on last week. I turned the car off and restarted it and all fine. Same thing happened tonight. Getting codes (GAP IID): U0415-64 invalid data received from ABS control module U0121-00 Lost communication with ABS control module P0572-17 & P0573-16 Brake...

    2010 V8 radiator replacement

    Forgot to mention. While burping the air out of the cooling system I got a 'low coolant level' warning light on the dash, when the expansion tank was full? Kinda unnerving. Self-diagnosed a faulty level sensor (located on the underside of the tank). Got a new one from the dealer and was still...

    2010 V8 radiator replacement

    Hi all, I replaced my radiator at 220k km a couple of months back. Couldn't find much in the way of a write up online, so thought I would provide some tips learned here. I had put UV dye into the coolant tank to try and trace the source of a significant leak, and in the process realised that the...

    Using coolant dye to diagnose leak

    Ha! I put on new coolant hoses as PM last summer. Went mostly with aftermarket. The $CAD 30 one that attaches on top of the tstat housing was leaking at the plastic part in-between it's two hoses. No reason for this, but it was. Replaced with OEM. Also, coolant seeping from sides of radiator...

    Lower steering shaft U joint replacement

    Thanks for your thoughts. I bit the bullet and spent $CAD 500 on OEM. Replaced it last week. One of the few jobs on the vehicle that was easier than it first looked. No more slop in steering

    LR4 Electric Parking Brake (EPB) Services and Replacement

    Alas, just using it does not ensure longevity. Mine failed 4yrs ago and is still failed. Had I been better informed at the time, I would have made sure rear brake shoes were correctly serviced. Incorrect cable tension seems to be main reason unit overwinds, shrieks like a banshee and then fails...

    Lower steering shaft U joint replacement

    2010 V8 at 220k km. So with engine off there is noticeable play in the steering wheel. Can wiggle it from side to side with one finger. Pretty sure its wear in the lower steering shaft U joint. Looking online for a replacement part. Seems to be a choice of $CAD 500 for OEM or $CAD 50 for generic...
