    Slow Nav

    The entire system seems slow to me, including the NAV. I'd speculate that a contributing factor to the slow NAV is that the system is trying to match your input against it's records for every single letter/number you enter. So instead of waiting for you to input a full address, it's searching...

    LR4 Roof Rack Question(s)

    I think the flat back of the LR4 creates this giant swirling vacuum behind the vehicle when you're traveling at speed, so any weather you're going through gets applied nicely all over the rear hatch and anything sitting on a hitch rack. I've seriously overthought my bike carrying...

    LR4 Roof Rack Question(s)

    Thanks. That is a Yakima ForkLift. I've only used it once so far, but it worked well. One thing I've noticed is that in order to clamp it on just the aluminum part of the crossbars, it ends up sitting fairly in-board. Add the height of the vehicle, and it becomes less than super easy to get a...

    LR4 Roof Rack Question(s)

    I just finished my roof rack project, and it was quite a journey. I initially orderd roof rails and cross bars from LR Centre Ltd over in the UK. About $620 to get them to my door, including shipping. I thought they were OEM when I ordered them. They were not. The quality was pretty good, but I...

    hitch hauler thule box/roof box

    I'm going to ask the million dollar question: how far does it stick out on the sides?

    Showoff Your LR4

    After installing the roof rails and cross bars, I've since slapped on some ski carriers and a bike carrier. They are a tight fight. The distance between the fork of the bike and front ski carrier is a little less than the width of a finger. Here's the LR at work: Also, sorry for the crappy...

    Snowflake symbol in center display

    I'm in Denver, and I'll drive home after work with the windows down, sunroof open. It might only be 50 degrees out, but with the heated steering wheel/seats, it's a great commute.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Haven't been on the highway yet, but I think they'll be pretty quiet. But once I add the ski and bike carriers, it might be a different story.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Today's project was installing some satin silver roof rails and cross bars.

    What do you think, it looks better stock grill or black one

    Full black grill takes away some of the character of the front fascia, so I'll vote silver.

    Confirm 2013 TPMS & Advice Needed

    I'd take Barry's money and run. Who knows when he could send you a replacement rim. Selling the Coopers sounds like a good call, and that price point is very tempting!

    Confirm 2013 TPMS & Advice Needed

    On top of umberto's point, two spares seems like overkill, especially if the four tires you're running are as tough as the A/T KOs or the silent armors. Is there a way to leave the under-frame space empty without freaking the system out (assuming your spare goes on the roof)? That option...

    Trailer hitch needed

    Interesting! . . . did they give you any grief about installing the harness yourself?

    Trailer hitch needed

    The slapping it on and the click is really quite satisfying. I have the factory hitch and it's awesome. After you installed the harness, is there anything you have to do with software to get the towing functionality working in the truck?

    FS: Crossbars and short roof rails

    FS: Crossbars and short roof rails UPDATE Hey guys, Would anyone be interested in a set of brand new non-OEM short roof rails and crossbars? I picked these up from LR Centre out of the UK, but didn't realize when I ordered that the items were non-OEM. They appear to be near exact replicas of...

    PD1880 with BGF A/T 265/65R18 vs Cooper zeon LTZ 255/55/R19

    This was going to be my suggestion.

    Is buying an LR4 w/ 66k miles madness?

    I think this is biggest factor you have to consider. Unless you have a dealer or a mechanic that's good with rovers nearby, I wouldn't do it.

    Low Access Mode Question

    Or this.

    Low Access Mode Question

    Negative . . .plus, if you take a close look at the vehicle in access mode, the wheels point inwards from the top, and that would give you all sorts of wacky tread wear and handling at high speed.

    2014 LR4 from Frankfurt

    The black on the tail lights looks too much like a veneer; aftermarket covers like umbertob points out. The black needs to fill in the light housings quite a bit more. The rest looks fine.
