    Considering an LR4

    I brought home my LR4, only to find it was too tall to fit in the garage without lowering the suspension. Luckily, I found a good garage door guy who was able to raise the track of the door and made the opening higher. It cost me $600, but it's worth it to not worry about forgetting to lower...

    Rattle from the dome light area

    Does the noise happen just over bumps? Does it sound like a plastic clicking? Is it worse when it's colder? If yes, then you have the same noise that I have.

    iPod Functionality on the Dash

    A problem I had using the USB drive, before I got the iPod, was at startup the system reads the entire drive. I found that I had to remove songs from the drive to make it load quicker. I was also wasting a lot of time organizing th drive into folders. The iPod is a much easier, but more...

    iPod Functionality on the Dash

    I went the Nano route - stays in my car and is always charged - see the thread on how I attached it with velcro to the inside lid of the center console

    LR4 - insights?

    You can usually tell by the MSRP whether it's a HSE or Lux.

    Global Close

    What's strange is that the instant digital speed will show if you change the units to km/h. I can't think of a good reason why this feature was disabled for mph. I tried contacting my dealer and LR US to get this enabled, but got nowhere.

    Multitude of problems

    You're basing your decision on a very small subset of owners who post on forums. I'm very happy with my LR4 and would say that the overwhelming majority are as well (although I'm not trying to dismiss the OP's problems).

    Is the 2nd row Weathertech mat two pieces like the official Land Rover mat, or one?

    Attaching iPod to inside top of center compartment (velcro)?

    Thanks NDRENFRO...the pictures are helpful. I found a small leather pouch I had from a old video camera strap. I attached the pouch to the lid of the console with velcro. The iPod slips into the pouch. I'll try to post pics later.

    Attaching iPod to inside top of center compartment (velcro)?

    Is it easy to remove and replace the iPod? Do you have a link, or pictures? Thanks.

    Attaching iPod to inside top of center compartment (velcro)?

    I'm thinking of attaching a small leather pouch to the inside of the cover to the center compartment to keep the iPod in the recess of the lid, next to the iPod and USB inputs. This will allow the opening and closing of the center console without the iPod cable flopping around. Sometimes I have...

    Do I need these options?

    I got mine in July and haven't had any problem with the seats getting hot that two minutes of air conditioning didn't cure. I can't see ebony vs tan making that much difference.

    Do I need these options?

    The portable audio interface is for an iPod. There is also a port to plug in a usb card with music files. I haven't heard the base system, but I really like the Logic7 system - the sound is much flatter with it turned off. I would highly recommend the premium system.

    Do I need these options?

    I have the same color combination on a 2010 and I get a lot of compliments. I also have the black lacquer wood finish, which I think looks best. The vision package is a must, and I also find the cameras extremely helpful for parking in my garage at work. The only thing I don't have is the heavy...

    2011 LR4 Voice Controls

    I use the voice controls frequently on my 2010. It's especially useful for handsfree dialing of phonebook contacts. It's not as good a system as my old Acura, but it's far from useless (more control of the radio would be most helpful for me). Nobody memorizes all of the commands, but I sure...

    Replace cigar lighter with outlet?

    That makes sense to me, but the owner's manual specifically says not to do it. I wasn't brave enough to try it.

    Replace cigar lighter with outlet?

    Has anyone attempted to modify the cigar lighter to turn it into an additional power outlet? I don't know anyone who smokes, but I'd like to have an additional outlet to charge my wifi card.

    No speed display in TFT driver info screen

    I wonder if a software hack could enable the functionality. I wish I had the skill set to do it. I might call Land Rover USA to see if I can get an official explanation. If it truly is a legal issue it would be ironic because a digital speed display is a safety feature. In addition, other...

    No speed display in TFT driver info screen

    My salesman told me the functionality is enabled for the rest of the world version. I don't understand that logic, if it truly exists for non-US LR4s.

    No speed display in TFT driver info screen

    Very surprising if true. I doubt it could be that hard a programming job. I wonder if a software update can add the feature at a later point.

    No speed display in TFT driver info screen

    On page 19 of the 2010 LR4 brochure and throughout the owner's manual it shows the current speed in mph on the lower right corner of the TFT screen above the steering wheel. In addition, information from the entertainment system is displayed. My new LR4 does not show the current speed, nor...

    LR4 NAV map to intersection? and two wishes

    I was using the NAV on my new LR4 for the first time and I tried to set up my work address as a stored location. I wanted to map to an intersection by entering the cross streets. Is this feature not available, or am I missing something obvious? The workaround was entering an close address and...

    Bluetooth Phonebook/Call History

    This morning my phonebook magically appeared with the Pre. Maybe I was too impatient as I have a lot of contacts.

    Bluetooth Phonebook/Call History

    I also have the greyed out phonebook with the Palm Pre. I agree that the LR website shows full compatibility. Have you investigated further? I just took delivery yesterday so I haven't had the chance to research further. I think I'll start a thread with Palm Pre in the title to attract more...

    Ordering 2011 LR4

    You deserve a discount on the car, and more, for your military service. Thanks.
