Short Roof Rail - Install Help Needed!
To cut my trim, I used a hacksaw and put a 2x4 behind it so it didn't bend or get a bad cut when I got down to the very end. Worked pretty well. Thinking back, a little wd-40 wouldn't have been a terrible idea as the blade got stuck a few times. -

Short Roof Rail - Install Help Needed!
So, I had a similar issue with a set of extended rails I bought from the dealer. They were missing a few bolts and a few spacers. I tried going to my local Lowe's and it was IMPOSSIBLE to find the correct bolts and spacers. I ended up having the dealership take the hardware from another set... -

LR4 Accessories
For what its worth, I was looking at the Thule and Yakima bars today and they are around $475 - $525. I don't think you lose any aesthetics, either over the OEM. They look as nice, if not nicer and have a nice wind profile as mentioned previously. -

LR4 Accessories
Mine were the extended roof rails, but I believe the only real difference is that you cut a little less of the weather stripping. -

LR4 Accessories
Gmosley, $655 for cross bars!?! Is that including the roof rails? If it is and you are at all $$$ conscious, I would suggest doing the roof rail install yourself. I can't say I am the handiest person in the world, but this install took me less than an hour. There is a youtube video on this... -

Accident when off roading
Miracle is an accurate description. I'm not sure how the driver, at the very least, didn't get seriously injured. I agree with others that I feel very safe in the LR4. Especially with a baby in the backseat, the piece of mind is nice. Is anyone aware if LR has ever done any kind of crash... -

I love my truck, but I hate my truck...what to do?
If anyone is considering something other then Land Rover and is OK with not buying from the typical luxury brands, the new 2015 Chevy Tahoes were just released. I like what they did with it and they are marketing to a more upscale clientele. Keeps the v8 engine, with good (not great) HP and... -

Lr4 Brakes
Will using EBC or other aftermarket parts void the warranty? I believe I've read elsewhere in the forum that someone was having a warranty repair performed and they had aftermarket brakes on and the dealer wouldn't perform the service until OEM brakes were reinstalled. Is there any validity to... -

Accessory bug - got my next accessory to install
I too installed the long rails over the holidays. Why anyone would pay the dealership to install these is beyond comprehension. I was quoted 4 hrs of labor for the job and it took me about an hour. I would be able to do it quicker if I ever had to do it again. The video earlier in this... -

Talk me Down !!!
for what it's worth, i was at my dealership yesterday and when talking with my sales guy he indicated it will likely be 2016 before we see the 5th gen LR/Discovery. -

Dealer Price Gouging
I'm glad I read this thread this morning, as I had on my honey-do-list to make our 2 yr service appointment. I promptly went online and bought the K&N air filter. It cost me $95 and the site claims I will never have to replace it, just clean it. Then I bought the cabin filter for ~$40 with... -

2014 LR4 - Confirmation of no changes?
As far as the badging goes, I agree the Discovery is out of place. Luckily, and I hope this is accurate, I read an article that stated the badging in the US and Mid-East will remained unchanged. What EXACTLY that means, I don't know. I would like to see the LR4 become just Discovery, but... -

2014 LR4 - Confirmation of no changes?
Anyone know what color that is in the spyshots? That combo with the black pack looks sharp, imo. -

On the subject of warranties
I know some insurers offer some sort of aftermarket warranty. At the time when I got my 2012, my insurer was GEICO and they asked me if I wanted to include the extended warranty option. I decided not to get it, but you have until the car is a year old or has 15k miles on it. I think it was... -

Well, I put a deposit down for a 2014
These 2014 updates seem like a huge waste of money by Tata. The changes are so minor, why not put these dollars into truly making the next-gen a great vehicle. -

Leftover NEW 2012 LR4 LUX
Given that you are about to hand over ~$100k, I would be pushing for a total discount closer to $5k. Just my opinion and not necessarily based on any facts... -

New Land Rover Colors for 2014
I think Count had a few cocktails last night. But out of curiosity sake, my LR4 is Sumatra Black...have anything for that color? -

Leftover NEW 2012 LR4 LUX
I think $50k is a bit of a hope and a dream type price. For that MSRP on a 2012, my guess is that it's a Lux. As a comparison, I've seen CPO LR4s that are sometimes sold close to $50k with more mileage. My guess is the title would still be sold as new and that the 10 miles are just from test... -

squealing brakes
Rick, What were the aftermarket pads that you bought, were they Brembo too? Also, are there any specific instructions for changing the LR4 pads/rotors? I've never done a pad/rotor change but wanted to give it a try since the dealerships charge a ridiculous amount. Is it straightforward... -

2014 Range Rover Sport Final Spy Shot!
I think the overall design is quite sharp looking and given the intended market, I think any watering down of off-roading capability won't be missed, if at all. I understand the arguements for brand heritage, but Tata like everyone else is likely more concerned about bottom line. The one... -

2015
For your amusement, I posted a link of what they are claiming is the next-gen LR5 (er LR4). The only difference I can see is a slight change to the shape of the side mirrors. Does anyone know if it is common for manufacturers to test the new models' mechanics while using the old body styling...
