LR4 2016 engine sound odd or normal?
That sounds like the sc coupler to me. You can slip that supercharger belt off and see if the pulley has any free play. If it’s worn out, you can actually reproduce the sound you are hearing by just rotating that pulley back and forth a bit. There are a bunch of youtube videos demonstrating -... -
Roof Rack Wind Noise Help !
Those tabs sticking out front (attachment for the former light rail) might be causing some problems. I can imagine those things catching the wind and vibrating like a tuning fork. You might try shielding them somehow - maybe somehow moving the existing air dam or using a new one that‘s a bit... -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
The oil cooler tube should have the seals replaced on both ends, so if you only replaced one, that’s a potential problem. They can also get into a crooked position when the pump is pushed on, and one forum member reported that one of the seals got twisted somehow, so it wasn’t sealing properly. -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
As for the leak, sounds like you’re leaking at the little elbow (Part #7) - if you’re saying you have another leak behind the pump, then its likely the tube that connects the back of the pump to the oil cooler, or the front crossover where it goes into the block. As long as you have a leak, I... -
P0087 Fuel Pressure
That’s amazing. Do you know on what basis the dealer diagnosed the hp fuel pump failure? (BTW, $3200 for the HP fuel pumps seems crazy high to me. A few years ago, that’s what I thought the timing chain would cost. Seems like everything has doubled). -
Thermostat Replacement and then some.
If it were me I’d just do the whole thing. I find half the battle is just getting the project started - I’d rather not do that part twice if I can get it all done at once. -
Extended Warranty
Sorry to hear it really was a seized engine. I was really hoping for a better outcome. -
LR4 New Engine - Why Is The Restricted Performance Light On?
I was wondering if you knew the exact code. There is really no single code that says definitely that “your timing is off”. If the engine seems to be running fine, I would ask LR to clear the code so you can see if it comes back. You can explain that you think its a residual code since you... -
2011 LR4 normal engine sound?
Could it be the VVT solenoids? I’ve heard they can rattle pretty good when they fail. They’re mounted outside the TC covers, so should be easy to change. One thing you could do is reach through the oil filler with a right angle pick and just see if you have much slack in the chain. Should be... -
How do you sit?
I’m shrinking ... down to 5’10 now, about 180. I find this car to be the most comfortable I’ve ever driven, especially for long trips. I‘ve always had knee pain in other cars after a couple hours of driving, but I don’t get it with this one. I believe all body-on-frame cars (LR4 and the... -
LR4 New Engine - Why Is The Restricted Performance Light On?
I think the dealer is probably wrong. At the very least, they should clear the code and see if it comes back. If your timing is off enough to trigger restricted performance, you’d notice an issue of some sort with the way the engine is running, right? If you say the engine is running fine... -
Lost power, died, now won't crank. Any ideas?
That’s really strange. You don’t seem to have overheated, and didn’t notice any strange knocking noises before failure, right? Oil level is okay? Could the car be stuck in gear, or the starter motor be stuck against the flywheel? -
2011 LR4 5.0 130k miles starting problem
Glad you fixed the problem, but I can’t really see how corrosion at the battery terminal could cause a slow-to-start situation (assuming it was cranking normally). Did you clean the maf as well (wondering if that had something to do with it). -
Lost power, died, now won't crank. Any ideas?
Yes - I think that’s correct. -
Lost power, died, now won't crank. Any ideas?
Strange that it won’t jump start. Did you have the jumpers grounded to the negative battery terminal or to the chassis? Just thinking that it could be a bad earth strap, which would prevent a jump start if you were grounding to the battery terminal. -
Truck Burning Rich
My first thought would be a leaking injector - fuel leaks into the cylinder as it sets giving you a rich start. The other thing that comes to mind is the cracked fuel flange issue - are you sure you’re not smelling raw fuel from the tank (somewhat close to the tailpipes is the reason I ask). -
crash data - cranks but won't start
So, you now hear the fuel pump when you turn on ignition (pre-starter motor)? The high/low fuel pressure you are reporting from SDD seems suspicious to me. Are you sure those are not just the trigger points for the codes? I don’t think fuel rail pressure at startup would be 20MPa. On my GAP... -
LR4 2010 Suspension height issue
@Chrisarobin That pick you posted appears to be a screenshot of a Technical Service Bulletin, not the codes from your vehicle. It also does not appear to be related to your problem, as far as I can tell. Those are communication codes relating to the ABS module. Best place to start is really... -
Wet cabin air filter
When you replace the cowl, take a look to see if you can locate a structure that is supposed to deflect water away from the HVAC air intake. I remember someone posting once about a splash shield or something like that which is supposed to deflect rain that escapes through the cowl away from the... -
Thermostat Replacement and then some.
Definitely do the front/rear crossovers together as you need to have the intake manifold/sc off to access the rear cross (at least its much easier). I did the water pump and t-stat at the same time, and one or two of the hoses off the t-stat. I don’t think its necessary to replace all the... -
Thermostat Replacement and then some.
Yes, clearly coolant. I didn’t mean to imply that it was oil. That little black tube delivers coolant from the water pump to the oil cooler. I just call the oil cooler tube for lack of a better term. It has two rubber seals, one on each end. They tend to leak, or so I’ve been told by a... -
Thermostat Replacement and then some.
Probably that oil cooler tube in your picture, but I think it’s difficult to distinguish between the pump/oil cooler tube leak and the front crossover leaking. As I recall, the front crossover goes into the block just behind that area and coolant can run out from the same place. -
2015 autobiography lwb
When you say the rear windows won’t roll down, do you mean using the drivers switch or using any switch? In other words, do they work if you are using the rear door window switches? If not, first thing to check would be the fuses. -
Thermostat Replacement and then some.
You need the stuff that is dexcool/OAT compatible, assuming you’re still using that kind of coolant. I think AC delco makes some, but there are others too. If you do this, let us know how it works. I made a half-ass attempt to use a UV dye once and didn’t find it easy to do - lots of... -
Possible CPU problem, dashboard warnings
We’ve seen these symptoms reported on this forum before, but seems like it has had a variety of reported causes. Sometimes battery or alternator, sometimes brake pedal switch, sometimes wheel speed sensor, sometimes real ****** problem - but then you’d really expect a code to be lodged. With...
