Headliner Falling down
Good update thanks Good to hear. But that sucks though. After the headliner fell in 2007 or so on my 2003 Discovery II SE AND I saw a Range Rover Sport at the dealer with a failing headliner taken out (!!!!)... I am expecting this on my 05 LR3 HSE as well. Also -- the headliner is just... -

Random PSA
I got them also for my LR3 After I had 2 full-to-the-brim starbucks coffees spill in my LR3... One spilled all in the parking brake area (no harm done) and the other on the passenger side carpet. After that, I was angry and I went to the dealer in Nashville and bought 2 of the inserts. I've... -

Bad Diffs
New front diff breather cap - part # needed I don't think that's the part number for the breather cap - my rover is in the dealers now getting the parking brake fixed (again). I asked about it... they didn't know about that part #. IN fact, they did say they have seen bad diffs, but that they... -

Bluetooth can not be found
Are there green/red buttons in the right side of steering wheel? Are there green & red buttons on the RH side of the steering wheel? If not, you dont have bluetooth. Bluetooth was _not_ factory fit on any 2005 LR3 models, HSE or SE. Came in late 2005 on 2006 models. It is retrofittable... -

Non-Heated Steering Wheel to Heated Steering wheel?
Switch The switch (UK cars, RRsports) is on the LH side of the steering wheel, where the voice activation button is. It's split in half, half of it is the heated wheel, the other half is the voice button. -

Advice on a new vehicle? (to augment or replace the LR3)
Idea About the only thing bigger are the Nissan Armada, and maybe those huge Toyota Sequoias... but then again, my sister has a Sequoia and I marvel at how much more room I think my "narrower" LR3 has. I don't really know. Maybe you could do what my father in law did, which is send the... -

Cracked Dash
Can you send pics of the dash? SAME PROBLEM on my 2005 HSE. I have one very very tiny crack on the left hand side by the side window defroster vent. Dealer said "no big deal, normal" but then my warranty expired (although they documented it, I made them). If you had pics, would love to see. -

2008 LR3 question for me!!????
your original ? - LR3 vs RRS I looked at both. The Lr3 to me is a far better value _for the dollar_ than the RRSport... same engine, chassis, terrain response, transmission, power, interior is pretty similar (RRS is a little better). But for me it was the headroom and the rear cargo room... -

Retrofitting bluetooth factory kit to 2005 HSE - part #'s
Correct - the dealer install retrofit kit Think I'm going to buy it / do it.... I can get parts for around 780 from parts.com (a LR dealer in Ft Lauderdale is actually the fulfillment). I've almost gotten in enough wrecks bc of my phone to justify the expense , which admittedly is too high). -

Driving lamps w/ metal LR nudge bar
Gentlemen and scholars, and ladies. OK... got the metal LR (nonwinch) bull bar on my LR3. Bought a set of the LR driving lamps (I know they arent the greatest but I got a deal). Here's the kicker. I saw an LR3 in Nashville in a parking lot with the LR driving lamp kit mounted on the... -

Rant!!!
my thoughts So basically to the average bear, anything LR3 related goes in here, irrespective of what its called (technical or not). I fall in that category (for example my wheel color post) But it might be a grt idea to create 2 forums for each model.. ie LR3 gets technical and general... -

Offroad dedicated wheels / RRSport HSE rims
I picked up an almost free set of stocker RRSport 19" HSE rims... with halfway decent tires. Plan is to have a dedicated set of rims for onroad, and another dedicated to beating up offroad w/ better offroad tires. I had planned on using the RRS rims to beat offroad but I really like... -

Scorpion ATRs and white letter sidewall I just checked on the Scorpion ATRs on tirerack... and who knows, maybe they are better than the scorpion zero's im running. Those of you who have them -- do they have a white letter sidewall tho on the inside? I _hate_ that -- ideas ? -

tire 255/55/19
Scorpion ATRs & XL rating ? I just checked on the Scorpion ATRs and they do _not_ appear to have the "XL" load rating that we need on an LR3. Anyone know why ?? Obviously it seems like you guys are running these tires with no issues, but I was told never to stray from XL ratings with these... -

tire 255/55/19
pirelli scorpion zero rock -- they rock -- they rock -- def would get them in 19" if you are primarily onroad. One dealer in alabama uses them 100% exclusively on the trucks there for the 19" rims on Full size range rovers and lr3s (sports use a 255/50/19 instead of the 55) -

Ouch tough situation A couple thoughts. I have an 05 HSE (45 k on it) and have had both the parking brake issue (locking up on highway vibration) and the a pillar, sunroof tube leak. All is well now all is fixed. For my parking brake, under warranty the dealer replaced the entire brake... -

humming / fan noise by right rear wheel when car is off?
Ryan I think that may be it I remember reading about an emissions pump back there once before. Good call... that's probably it. It's definitely _not_ the air compressor/air suspension. -

humming / fan noise by right rear wheel when car is off?
Weird that last night I parked in the garage -- and could hear a very faint fan / humming type noise that was coming from somewhere behind the right rear wheel area. Sounded like the fan that cools my laptop. Truck was off, keys out. Went in house, came back 10 mins later, noise had stopped...
