    Attempted Theft of Discovery 4...??

    Well it should be covered by insurance....Thief damages a vehicle as they attempt to steal it that would be a covered loss. Get your company involved. Of course I am the US so your mileage may cary with UK insurers.

    New LR4 owner. General thoughts on servicing, engine oil etc. please

    The other coolant smell is the crossover pipe. It cracks and leaks. Not a hard fix.

    Sweet smell, coolant leak, ugh...

    Exactly. Not hard to do. See if shop will walnut blast your valves while in there....kill two birds with one stone while you have the intake manifold off.

    General thoughts on buying a 2011 LR4 with 100k miles?

    Can anyone confirm or deny that LR has no network between dealers so you cannot pull a service history from another dealer? Or is my dealer full of it? My 110,000 11 LR4 HSE Lux + with NO records but a clean PPI (it did need a coolant crossover pipe and door actuators) was mid teens. In very...

    Any suggested textured black paint for Prospeed UK Ladder?

    I'd use a rocker panel chip guard type paint in satin. Texture but not obnoxious. Easy to fix...

    General thoughts on buying a 2011 LR4 with 100k miles?

    Just bought a 2011 HSE lux + in Ipanema Sand at 110000 miles for mid teens. Really clean. Had lots of front end wandering that everyone I think interpreted as control arms. Simply looking at control arms shows that all the parts were new. Had LR do an inspection and they confirmed CA and...

    Radiator leak

    I wouldn't use that in ANY vehicle I owned ever ..... Just sludge up passages and heater cores and not likely "fix" the leak.

    I have had a loaner D5 for a week Ask Me Anything (LR4 owner)

    Does it sound like a helicopter crashing when you start it? Not sure I have ever heard a noisier cold start than an LR4

    My Big Fat Costco fail

    I threw mine up on my dad's lift. Just used some common sense as to where to pick it up....and yes even my dad had the high lift pegs to get the pads up where they needed to be.

    Heavy coolant leak / failure

    I would think so if there was coolant in the valley under the intake. You might be able to see into that space....truck not here right now or I would check. ^ ^ ^ 1 2...

    New to Landrover...picked up a 10 LR4!

    I just picked up a 2010 LR4 HSE LUX Ipanema Sand at 113000 miles. I have a couple other "British" cars. 2002 Mini Coopers S with 202000 miles on it. A 1995 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas with 102000 on it. And now the LR4! My other cars are either Fords or BMW's. The LR4 was replacing an X5 that a...

    Heavy coolant leak / failure

    I just did my crossover pipe this afternoon. Both tubes were basically split where the o-rings fit in the pipe and once unscrewed came loose and left the orings and plastic lip in the mounting. It was pretty straight forward. Lots of wiring, vacuum lines and cooling hoses to disconnect. I...
