    Aux Input Hum/ Ipod

    The hum is associated with the lack of a good ground loop isolator. Your options are: Use the battery and don't plug the ipod into the cigarette lighter. Purchase a cheap ground loop isolator (radio shack has a few) Purchase a decent adapter (the Belkin above usually -- but not always works)

    Soon to be Newb

    The SE's drive much better. The SE's have better and more tire options You can option an SE up to HSE specs sans the better seats (negated in 06 anyway) The stereo sucks in both. 06's are reported to have shittier seats. Pick up a 05 at a discount.

    Help me justify HSE over SE

    Stereo sounds the same. The HSE seats are better. The SE rides better and has more tire options out there.

    Here’s my story it’s sad but true. About a LR3 I once knew…

    I can beat that. Imagine seeing 2 young kids (techs) tearing ass down the street at 2X the legal limit in your 911 turbo. Been there, done that. This for a routine inspection.

    window lines?

    Had it on 2 landrovers since 2001 -- never even noticed them. Wish my Porsche had the same option as defrost on it sucks.

    Child Seat in Middle Seat

    Why are you not using the child seat hooks in the middle seat?

    Here’s my story it’s sad but true. About a LR3 I once knew…

    Glad things seem to have worked out for you. Our Tonga SE purcahsed in November threw a suspension fault in 0 degree weather with 700 miles on it. Restarting the car cleared the issue. At 1000 miles the ignition shut off; again a restart solved the issue. 8000 miles later neither of these...

    Considering LR3 SE

    01 SE7. One problem, the MAF failed after 3 years. Picked up our LR3 in November. Zero issues.

    Which wax?

    Zaino. Cheaper than the foo-foo shit, shines better and lasts a lot, lot longer. Some European blacks will cloud with it though.

    Water Leak

    Man I feel terrible for you guys with issues. We had a 01 SE7 Disco with no probems and our LR3 has been the same since November.

    worried about reliability?

    Had a 01 Disco SE7 for 4 years. The one thing that went wrong was the MAF sensor -- and that is going to happen randomly in any car. Our LR3 which we picked up in November has had zero issues 8,000 happy miles later.

    Renting before buying?

    Hertz has replaced or is replacing their discos with LR3's. I rented one in Atlanta this week.

    3rd row seat

    eh. somthing seems fishey. I seriously doubt any new LR has had *that* many issues. On the other hand if someone was looking for an angle to fix the mistake they made when they bought on impulse and did not do their homework, I can see these things happening.

    Fuel Economy

    We see an average of 16MPG (wife drives 99 percent of the time) -- which beats my lifetime 996 turbo average by .2 MPG -- and my track 911TT by about 12MPG :)

    Rear Fog Lights?

    True, as are low powered avoidance lights in some countries for street parking at night.

    LR3 Reliability

    6800 miles since November. 1 software glitch when it was -18 degrees a brake warning code was thrown. Otherwise, dead solid reliable -- as was our 01 SE7 Disco.

    Newbie ? Difference between HSE and SE

    Rain sensing wipers are available on the SE.

    Newbie ? Difference between HSE and SE

    A lot of misinformation in this thread. You can get an SE with the nav, I have one. The differences between the SE and HSE are as follows: HSE has the adaptive font headlights. HSE has the memory seats and pass side mirror tilt (ala my 911 turbo .. in fact the same damn buttons)...

    LR3 driver seat question...

    The HSE seats allow independent raising and lowering of the front and back (like the old Disco). The SE seats do not as you raise the seat it tilts forward. Very annoying.

    MP3 playback

    The ability to play MP3's is in the manual -- my manual at least.

    LR3 Owner's Thoughts so Far...

    It is in the manual. :) The PDC is rear only as far as I am aware. 12 bucks at your local auto store and 10 minutes is all it takes. We owned a 01 SE7 for 4 years. It was a great vehicle with one unplanned visit to the dealer to replace a faulty MAF. The LR3 is incredible. 2 months and...
