Well, I finally did it...
I traded it in due to convenience and the fact that my driveway only holds one vehicle. It stung REALLY BADLY how little I got for her despite being in excellent condition and low mileage. The upside was that the dealer worked with me on the price of the defender and I got a really great finance... -
Well, I finally did it...
I went with Pasadena as they are close by for me and had the truck that ticked all the boxes. Absolutely no settling for anything or anything lacking. I was on the fence for a LONG time too about saying goodbye. They gave me the lower of the kbb numbers for trade in and worked with me on the... -
Well, I finally did it...
Sadly said goodbye to my 2011 LR4 the other day. Actually cried when cleaning her out. I ended up landing on a brand new 2025 Defender X Dynamic SE, beating out the Lexus GX and the Grenadier. This forum has been priceless for me while i had the LR4-- thank you all so much. That said, if anyone... -
Bluetooth Control Module fried...
Recently had my 2011 LR4's Bluetooth control module diagnosed as dead. It manifested itself by affecting the whole infotainment system with speaker static and disabled touch screen buttons. Dealer said the part was on back order so I poked around interwebs and found it on ebay. Is this a pretty... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
I'm not Phil, but I also went through this a couple years ago with my 2011 LR4. After about a year's worth of trial and error-- replaced all the injectors, coils, plugs, numerous sensors, etc... the culprits were the hpfp's. Absolutely no problems since. -
Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order
I cancelled my Grenadier reservation/order. The nail in the coffin was the final cost. I was also never able to make it to any of the test drive events they had around Los Angeles... And honestly? I'm just not ready to part with my LR4. -
Common fuel pressure issue?
I've had this very same issue on my 2011 LR4. Very long story short-- We tried the Seafoam first to no avail. Finally had the hpfp's and the lpfp replaced and voila. No more misfires. -
Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
Oh my. I just dealt with this last year and that same cat **** smell! From what I understand it is a common issue. I attempted to clear the lines myself to no avail. I think i may have pushed the debris into another spot. My driveway is also squarely under a giant sycamore tree that spews debris... -
Nickname for LR4?
A friend would always call my original 2004 disco, "dances with wolves". When i got my 2011, i obviously had to call her "dances with wolves II: the armageddon" :) -
When is it time to say goodbye?
I've been reading along this entire thread as I am also wondering if i should just hang onto mine until she becomes too much of a maintenance/ cost burden. My 2011 LR4 (104k miles) is my daily driver and all around utility vehicle for me. Like what everyone else is saying, nothing else out there... -
LR4 Facelift (2014-2016) Halogen Headlamps Pair
I initially bought these to update my 2011 LR4 to the facelift front end (but decided to get the xenon headlights with DRL's instead). These are original Land Rover headlights in very good clean working condition. They do not have the daytime running lights. I am selling these as a pair only and... -
Driver door not locking
Yep! Actuator. I had my 2011's drivers and passenger door actuators replaced over the past few years. Very annoying as you have to pull apart the entire door to get it done. I paid my indie LR guys to do this both times. Around 650 both times. -
Newbie to the LR4 - GAP tool a must?
Yes! Mine paid for itself programming one new extra key fob. (Dealer wanted 750 for a new key!) I've also used it to add the facelift HID headlamps w/ DRL's. -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
UPDATE: Truck is all good since the LR Dealership swapped out my LPFP and HPFP's. Whew. That cost a fortune but they were able to work out a discount with me on the parts. I am simply glad she's running great on cold start up! Of course though, as soon as I got her home, the driver side door... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
It does help, yes, thank you. I should have also stated that my indie rover garage ran a compression test/ smoke test done a few months back and turned up ok. I will run this by the tech at LR when I take her in. I truly despise driving my "side car" electric fiat and hope to get this sorted... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
Hey thread followers! Since the temps here in Los Angeles have been dropping a bit, the shite misfires problem on my 2011 LR4 has sadly returned. It rears its ugly head on startup/ drive before engine warms up. Goes into "restricted performance" yadda yadda. No gas out the tail pipes. Gap Tool... -
2010-2013 LR4 with "Facelift" grille - photos?
Just did the powerfuluk facelift grill / newer headlamp upgrade on my 2011! Super easy! -
2011 LR4 Headlight Upgrade to Facelift Xenons...
And when I make the xenon changes to the ECU with the Gap tool, I should have the battery on a charger? Any tips? -
2011 LR4 Headlight Upgrade to Facelift Xenons...
Hello! Doing some research but unable to get a clear answer on this. With the Gap tool, I should be able to fit the facelift style xenons on my 2011 LR4 with halogens, correct? Does it matter if the headlamps are adaptive or not? (I have the facelift grille from powerfuluk with spacer on hand) I... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
LarryK : It's been a while since I've had that coolant sensor replaced and it's been extremely hot here in Los Angeles so I rarely get an actual cold start to truly test if my issue is gone. HOWEVER, there have been some mornings in the low 60's when I drive to the barn and I get a very faint... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
OK, we have a fix! My indie LR guys finally threw their hands up and told me to take it into the dealership. The tech there tested EVERYTHING, fuel pumps etc and found that the coolant temp sensor was the issue. Boom, solved. By far, the cheapest fix too. Hope my issue and solution helps someone... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
Hey guys! So I've since had the Low Fuel Pressure sensor replaced last week. I no longer get the code P0003 (Fuel Volume Regulator Control Circuit Low) but the engine STILL chugs, struggles and misfires on the odd number bank when cold. Literally as soon as the engine warms up (needle on temp... -
2011 LR4 Misfire/rough idle
OK, i'm back to a really rough idle when starting up cold. Codes galore. Yet it still runs great when warmed up! Oy vey. 1. P0003 Fuel Volume Regulator Control Circuit Low 2. P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected 3. C0700 Check report for description. 4. P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected My LR guy...
