    Control Arms

    At 160k miles, you'll definitely want to change both bushings and the ball joint. That said, I'd be shocked if that was the original control arm. Regardless, it would have to be a pretty quick job of pushing out old bushings and putting in new for me to not just have a whole new control arm...

    How many miles on your LR4?

    Front Air Struts - time to replace...what else "while I'm in there"?

    There is no real work savings by doing other things while you are in there, beyond maybe jacking up the vehicle and removing the wheel. Almost every other job can be done with the strut connected, especially if you've already got the control arm bushings done. For the price difference, I don't...

    New Recall Alert : Fuel System

    I had mine done in mid-June and have had zero problems since.

    UPDATE - Gasoline Odor - Is This Dealership BS??

    To save the face of several of the posters here, I think OP edited the title after advice was given. If I recall correctly, the original post and title did not state the recall work had already been done.

    Transmission oil leak........

    The transmission valve body sleeve is known to leak after a while. Not sure where that is in relation to your leak, but it could be the culprit.

    Air Suspension Compatibility...

    Sounds like the B6s could be an interesting option to those whose LR4s have a lot of heavy stuff attached. Bull bar, winch, skid plates, sliders, rear bumper, etc.

    Dang. You a right. No 6mm schraeder valves in the U.S. Here are some for $30 a piece. I'm assuming that's Australian dollars. https://www.aaasuspension.com.au/product/schrader-air-valve-to-6mm-air-line-one-piece/ Their shipping is high, too. Around $115 AUD just to get 4 valves to the U.S...

    Yeah, the "Ponzi scheme" title was a little rough. Reading the article, looks like he was taking full payment for parts before he even had them, then got burnt when the currency exchange rate fluctuated between Australia and Brittain and found himself underwater.

    sagging confirmed, now what?

    As far as a level surface goes, it may help to diagnose if it's a front/back issue or a left/right issue. Right now, it looks like the front right has an issue, but that could be because of unlevel ground and the real issue is the entire front. Your front left looks like it dropped a bit, too...

    Be Professional, Be Polite, But...

    When the suspension borked, did all four corners drop or just the rear? I've been meaning to create my own emergency air line kit. This may motivate me to do it once the weather gets a little cooler out. Here is another forum post about creating one...

    Upper door panel wear - Elbow

    You can take it to an automotive interior repair shop, which will probably recover the top portion of the door panel. They may not have an exact match for the material, but maybe they'll have something pretty close.

    The Great Engine Oil Debate

    This is incorrect. See my post #3 in this same thread. https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/the-great-engine-oil-debate.43545/#post-232285 Ravenol and Motul also meet the original spec. Moreso, they say they meet the spec right now whereas Mobil no longer does. And if you agree the...

    AMK Compressor rebuild/replace

    Well, Lucky8 used to be cheap. Maybe some supply chain craziness driving the prices up.

    AMK Compressor rebuild/replace

    They are lesser quality, but a lot of people use them. I personally would not for something as integral to the car as the suspension, but if you are willing to gamble you can give it a shot. You can get the OEM one for cheaper than Atlantic British sells them. I think Lucky8 has them cheaper...

    LR4 air suspension stays up!

    One will come back first, then cause the others. You'd need to have the tool with you while the vehicle runs so you can see what one comes back first.

    LR4 air suspension stays up!

    Sounds like it could be a height sensor. Doubtful they all went bad at once, though. You have a way to clear all the codes? If it were mine, I'd clear all the codes and see what one comes back first.

    New Recall Alert : Fuel System

    Wouldn't think so. The voyagers look like they mount similar to the Terrafirma ones, which are what I have and they didn't balk when I took mine in.

    LR4 air suspension stays up!

    Did you look at the 4x4 screen on your stereo? What happens if you drive over 25 mph? Maybe just try disconnecting the battery for 20 seconds for a reboot.

    18" vs 19" for All Terrain Tires

    I would never run a spare of a different diameter on a full time four wheel drive vehicle.

    LR4 air suspension stays up!

    Describe the "fancy scanning tool." A lot of scanning tools don't read the suspension faults on Land Rovers. Is it going into what's referred to as "super off road" height, or just regular off road height? If it's the former, something is convincing your Rover that it's high centered. If...

    18" vs 19" for All Terrain Tires

    It's the design of the barrel. PowerfulUK describes it a bit in this video here:

    I never weighed them, but they are pretty heavy.

    Rattling/Vibrating/Grinding/Ringing noise when turning at low RPM

    I think I've read on here where people have had their brackets welded to stop the noise. It's probably something a muffler shop would do for $20 if you remove the part and hand it to them over the counter.
