    I am eyeballing this trail for a drive soon. http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=234 There is a water crossing but not that deep. I think we should get some of the local people together and try for it soon. Weather is supposed to be pretty nice through the coming weekend, its an...

    The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread

    I started the trail by Garden of the Gods and drove up a few miles past the shooting range, basically where the road leveled off. If I didnt turn around it would continue on for a long while and end in woodland park. There wasnt any deep snow. I think we should get a few locals together and hit...

    Radio Issue

    The truck will also pull juice from non essential components in order to turn the engine over. It might turn over strong, but its pulling power from less important things to do so. Thats why people report a number of various faults and gremlins popping up when its time for a new battery. If you...

    Radio Issue

    First thought is how old is your truck and have you ever changed the battery? Battery can be the source of many electrical gremlins when its cold.

    Multiple Systems Faults! Help!

    Battery is a pretty common suspect. Take it to AutoZone and have them test the battery and alternator. Since it is happening after the vehicle has been running either the battery isnt holding much charge or is is not getting enough.

    Cruise Control not Permitted

    Why do you vex me so... In the middle of a long drive from Ohio to Colorado. I filled up at an out of the way gas station and the premium fuel actually ran out while filling up. Which means I probably pumped all the dregs and crud into my truck. After using that fuel up and refilling at...

    Would you buy another one?

    Acura MDX? Very safe, reliable, etc... Like some others have said the real reason to buy a LR3 is its offroad capability. Those attributes are the same ones that would not make it a top choice for a daily driver that stays on the road. It is a truck, not a tall car. It is heavy, a little...

    Would you buy another one?

    Lexus is made by Toyota and although they have been one of the more reliable brands in the past years, the more recent ones are actually trying to kill people.

    The Pirelli Scorpions seem to be a popular choice for people who want off road capability without sacrificing on road performance. My stock Badyears still have plenty of tread left on them, but I might go ahead and replace a little early. When does Rampart Range Rd. Open?

    Will I need a new suspension air compressor eventually?

    Ok I was wrong. Maybe I had seen one for sale that was just called the wrong name.

    Will I need a new suspension air compressor eventually?

    Could be mistaken in my original reply, but I think I read somewhere they are seperate.

    Will I need a new suspension air compressor eventually?

    You will need a new everything over a long enough period of time. j/k Is it a leveling compressor or a ride height one? They are different. I would pick it up honestly. They are like 600-700 from most suppliers that I have seen. If anything sell it for half that and make some money.

    Snow and ice = lo or hi range???

    Find open lot. Special programs off. Dsc off. High range. Turn wheel. Floor it. Enjoy calorie-free doughnuts.

    Buyers Checklist!

    Well the price you pay for some of the nicer European brands is the electronic gremlins. I have had about 3 VWs, a Mercedes and the Rover. Same story with all of them, hit the heated seat button and a window starts going up and down, etc... An ongoing joke on the VW forum was to carry around...

    Buyers Checklist!

    Would be pretty confident in buying from a LR dealership vs. another dealership which is just going to change the oil, look at the tires and clean it up. From what I have read on these forums common problems are the air suspension sensors and compressors. Leaking sunroofs due to clogged...

    How to wire LR3 Roof Rack lights?

    Ummm he missed a few spots. The rest of Europe, Russia, the Americas, the whole eastern part of Asia, Southern part of Africa, etc... Guess thats off topic but If he only knew then what we knew now he would have wept at the impossibility of conquering it all. Anyways I would like to wire...

    Brush guard/aux light setups.

    Ummm well I had to take a deep breath and grab my balls before I went drilling into the bumper of my newly purchased rover, but once all was said and done it was easy. You will need a 33mm hole saw which is kind of hard to come by I used a 1 and 1/4 inch which worked. Putting the holes...

    Brush guard/aux light setups.

    Lets see some people's front ends. Here is mine. OEM wraparound style brush guard on clearance from land rover. $160 Hella 500s from amazon.com. $70 Mounting brackets from teakatrucks.com. $40 Add in a few hours of my time and drilling into the bumper of my truck. This is the result...

    I think the Brush bar will help too. Figured I'd find a nice access road and take a snow pic.

    New Brakes?

    My $0.02. I have EBC Red on my Mercedes C32 AMG which I race at autocross races. The EBC Red are the track/heavy duty compound, a step up from the green. I purchased them because autocross racing is very demanding on the brakes of a car. They are excellent and there is no fade at all when it is...

    Top Gear Disco 3 scottish mountain climb

    He didnt look like he tried to un-stick it very hard either. I think they had a certain time slot to fill so they made it interesting/funny whatever you want to call it. Also he does admit to being a poor off-roader.
