Third row seats!
JWESST: Never mind. Not getting into any debates. Choice on seating isn't always an option unless you're building a car from scratch and buying new. My personal preferences and yours are different and thus my own, so not up for debate. To the original poster, I added my experience and... -

Third row seats!
On my 2008 LR3 HSE I can count on one hand the number of times I've used the rear 3rd row seats. Generally my passengers and I find them cramped, uncomfortable, and very awkward to get into and out of in the LR3. You have to collapse the main rear passenger seats and then the 3rd row passenger... -

First Rover
Looks like dried mud and that hole doesn't look too bad. It looks like it's more of a dirt hole - a lower angle entry and exit than a pothole in pavement with sharp-cut edges. Just like what we always get here in Boston in the Winter. If it was like that you're tire would have blown out and... -

LR3 LR4 Rear Sliding Loadspace Floor
I'm curious if you have the rear seat config on your LR3. I do and while I see the value of the sliding deck that would impede using those rear seats. However, I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've used the rear seats! -

Front valve block leak
CMB6S: Did you ever complete the project you mentioned in July? A complete write-up on replacing the air valve block? Curious because I was reading this today and thought it would be good info to have stored to refer to. Thanks! -

Good cleaner for leather on seats and doors?
I have two dogs that share a lot of sober, hair, and dirt from runs through the woods. So far I've only cleaned the leather seats and front area a couple times but I used Meguiers (sp?) leather cleaner wipes. They dry out fast so I used a spray bottle to get them well soaked and then scrubbed... -

OK. Much what I figured. I see now the tool you're talking about. Thanks! -

What tools and parts to carry on long road trips?
TLT, et al: Got a Harbor Freight sale notice emailed to me today and they had this OBDII scanner on sale for $80. OBD II & CAN Deluxe Scan Tool. Made by CAN-TECH. I don't know much about these scanner tools but is this one a total no-go for our LRs? I'm wondering what the major differences... -

What tools and parts to carry on long road trips?
Everyone seems to mention an electronic code reader, like the IID. What is the best one to get and where from? Looking at the British Atlantic site there's a bunch of code reader tools, books, manuals, etc. etc. What's realistically the right tool for the average user/off-roader/some home... -

06 LR3 auxiliary?
I used to mock heated seats! Then my wife got a Saturn L300 with them and I became what I mocked. When I was in Iraq I built out a F-150 SuperCrew 4-door Lariat. They offered A/C seats! Now that I can enjoy! Wish I had them but wouldn't give my 2008 LR3 for A/C seats... On my LR3 the AUX... -

What tools and parts to carry on long road trips?
I have to second TLT's write-up. Extensive! Very well organized and done with an eye to situational dependent. Basic is what you can handle, emergency food and water rations, first aid, and communications and a communications plan. Most places - unless you're going off road - are mobile... -

Off roading upgrades
TLT: Let me know how you did the front and rear hitch changes. I have a Ramsey 8000# winch that while not the recommended WARN 9000 or 9500 is certainly a lot cheaper and an option for assisting the few times I might some winch help. And then I can move it from front to back or leave it at... -

Off roading upgrades
So sounds like a winch is the very last thing one would need. Dual battery set-ups: understanding that it's going to be use dependent and thinking of it for assisting a winch, powering a radio, and running a fridge - what's the best set-up or vendor to consider? -

Off roading upgrades
Question as I'm thinking of doing some upgrades for my 2008 LR3 HSE: Where do you recommend getting these gadgets/tools from? I got Wyeth-Scott for hand winches and already have one I picked up elsewhere. But I'm interested in diagnostic and service tools to cut down on mechanic expenses and... -

2014/2015 LR4 Brake pad wear
Morning all! I've got to replace my front and rear brake pads and rotors according to the dealership. I've become a bit frustrated with them and want to do the work myself. I think that DiscoMike said he could walk us through the job, for those that haven't done it before, so I'm looking for... -

Simple 3 amigo fix. Always try this first
I did question them and they've been honest and truthful - as far as I can tell - on other items. They're a small LR dealership in NH, not a glitzy one. But it did seem very odd to me. Regardless, I've got an issue now that has to be resolved and since I don't have the space, tools, or time... -

Simple 3 amigo fix. Always try this first
Update. Had Akebono brake pads on my OEM rotors and the dealership claims they ended up warping the rotors. Had to get the brake pads replaced a lot sooner than expected but have held off (though will in a month or two) getting the rotors done - all back over to OEM. Dealer would have covered... -

Intermittent Tyre Pressure Warning
I keep getting this issue too, especially when there are big temperature changes like a cool morning and then it sits in the sun or a cold day or warm day after the opposite. Some times it comes on when I've been driving a while. Very annoying. I had my tires replaced last Spring and have had... -

How big a tire will fit spare wheel well
I've got a full size 19" tucked up there. It might hang a tad lower than the donut spare but it's rock solid in the slot and I've already had to use it once. -

Rear bumper height hitch receiver
JAAMRODE: Any further developments with your bumper (Front and Rear) hitches? I think there could well be a market, though not sure how wide or what your overhead and price-point is. I've used the OEM hitch to tow a car trailer loaded with a 1986 Jaguar Vandem Plas. I think that weighs in...
