    Suspension fault on 3rd compressor

    I was having the suspension faults constantly and after many return trips to the dealer, they finally fixed it (so far so good). It ended up being a wire that had the coating rubbed off and it was causing a short which in turn gave me the suspension faults. They replaced compressor, sensors...

    Recession LR3 Accesory Guide/ Price list

    Seems like everyone is going up. I checked atlantic british just a couple of months ago for brakes and rotors, but my local mechanic said I was ok for a while longer. Just check pricing-- ouch!

    Mud Flaps - Anybody Happy With Them??? Cool or Uncool..

    I have them and agree with Roverine. When I upgrade to a newer LR3 that will be one of the first things I add, plus they are easy to install.

    LR3 Extended Warranties? 2005 LR3 HSE

    My dealer wanted almost 7k for an extended warranty. I told them no thanks, because at the time gas prices were high and sales were down so I'd be better off upgrading to a newer one. unfortunately, at the time that wasn't possible nor was i able to find another option for the extended...

    Sunroof Arms

    I had the same issue as well and had them replaced under warranty. I even noticed the same issue on a loaner that was new (less than 3000 mi) while dealer was repairing mine!

    ticking noise

    gmoney- I've asked my dealer to check for a similar noise (especially when cold) and they tell me it's normal. Although I don't think it sounds normal, I have had a loaner or 2 make the same sound.

    Suspension Conversion

    Hi phurley The faults have been different things based on the work orders. It first started as random faults, but after experiencing this for a while, the system began to air down and then within a few minutes it would air back up. Going down the hwy, the front would lower, then the back...

    Suspension Conversion

    I have 05 SE7 that's been having suspension issues/faults for quite a long time and the dealer can't seem to fix it. I'll have it back a day or so and the faults will start again. Can anyone recommend a place where I can get a conversion kit like what is available for the RR? My warranty...

    Kuhmo and Avon tires- How are they holding up?

    Hi I'm running kuhmo tires and have been very pleased. I have an 05 SE 7 that had the factory alignment issues so I was forced to replace my tires before the recall/fix was issued- no help from dealer. At the time the only 2 options were the goodyears or Kuhmos due to vehicle weight and I...

    too little too late for me. When i purchased my used 05 in November of 05, the dealer represented on website all used have the certified 75k mile warranty and that is the reason I bought that one. Well dealer was quick to try and sell me a 6+k warranty when my 4/50k warranty was close to...

    rear hatch hydraulic cylinders

    after hearing about the bulletin, i checked mine and sure enough they were loose. I was able to get a wrench on mine and tighten them up. It's been quite a while so I do not remember the size wrench, but I had no problems and it was a quick fix. Good luck

    LR3 hitch height

    I keep it at 500 lbs. or so, but I've towed jet skis, boats and golf cars on trailers and everything works fine. I got my hitch haul from uws and it's made from aluminum alloy so it's strong but yet light weight enough to handle easy. http://www.uwsta.com/

    LR3 hitch height

    I had the same concerns with my hitch haul. I bought a 6" rise to make sure the cargo carrier doesn't drag but still allows my rear hatch door to open. I got mine from Blue Ox and they have many different heights available and they are heavy duty. I've been very pleased with mine. Good luck...

    headlight washers fading

    I had mine replaced within the last 6 months due to fade. It was done under warranty and they were replaced not with black (as was original), but with the matching color of the bumper ends and fender flares. So far so good.

    Extended Warranties

    I checked with my dealer today and the warranties are 6k minimum--ouch!!! At the rate they keep rising and the falling prices of SUV's, it's a better value to trade for a newer LR3 that's certified than to buy the warranty!

    Black Plastic Body Molding Replacement

    That is one of few things I have not been happy with. Mine has faded terribly from the start and the dealer acts as is that is just something that you have with LR3s and discos. I also noticed that the prices to replace the fender flares skyrocketed shortly after the 05s came out. Think I may...

    Hitch Question

    I was able to remedy the problem by ordering a "blue ox" hitch extension that has a 6 in. rise. I took my Hitch haul to a local accessories store and we did some measuring and found one that cleared the bumper and got the cargo carrier up in the air some but still allowed me lower the rear...

    Trailer hitch receiver stowage and attachment...

    I have the SE7 and the compartment is on the left (driver side) and has a place molded for the receiver to fit. There is also a strap that has a buckle that you thread it through to help hold the receiver. I keep the plastic plug in the glove box. Unless you are doing some serious off-roading...

    Another Sunroof Question

    I had the same problem and it was soooo annoying! the dealer finally replaced everything with the sunroof (tracks and all)! I noticed that my sunroof tracks had many many cracks and every loaner I have had had was the same way (even brought it to the attention of the dealer. check your...
