rear hatch hydraulic cylinders
I had the body side ones checked as per the TSB, and after 9 mths or so noted that the hatch side was loose. I pulled both sides, loctite and should be a done deal. This was like 9 mths back again. Still going strong. (note-do one side @ a time or wear a helmet.:smile: ) To be honest though... -
Different suspension tuning for HSE & SE?
A.c.e. Active Cornering Enhancement. I think it was 99-2002 Discoveries. -
Chipped windshield
A windshield is really two sheets of glass with a sheet of plastic bonded in between. That plastic has the lines on it. They use some kind of black magic to make all of this adhere togehter and I hope to one day see something on the Discovery Channel to see them put one together. Anyway, your... -
Different suspension tuning for HSE & SE?
richpike - go to the head of the class. richpike: Correct, I just didn't flesh that out. The ultimate key here is that the software is alike between SE and HSE. "Monitors the road surface and constantly adjusts to it" is the way the Marketing people put the spin on something so relatively... -
LR3 battery choices for 2005 HSE
Replacement batteries are the Interstate MTP-H8. Interstate has been the authorized replacement battery for Land Rover product since I can remember. Get it from Firestone, Interstate, or even your dealer! Pricing is all over the place on batteries lately. Don't go cheap on these! The car takes... -
Removing Door Moldings/Trim?
Held on w/ double sided tape. Unless there is shoddy paint underneath, a good bit of floss, followed by goof-off and then wax and polsih for good measure and you should be done. LR pulled these form sale about 6 mths back, due to adhesive failures. Myabe if you wait long enough, they will... -
Towing a uhaul trailer. What do I need?
The harness has the 4-flat plug that is common on most trailers, so yo should be set there. If you have the receiver, you are getting warmer. What you may not have is the drawbar, the male piece with the ball on the end that the trailer actually attaches to. You could by one from the LR store... -
LR3 Keyless
Remotes are sealed and waterproof to I think like 50 feet. We tried to open one and pretty much had to destroy it. Still, sounds like a remote problem, but not sure how to fix... -
LR3 bumper guard
That particular guard has two designs, one has holes throught the front and then through the bumper cover and through the bar. Second design mounts with a bracket @ top and bottom on the cover top. Either way, there will be some holes. Directions for both are found @ www.ownerinfo.landrover.com... -
Never Coming Back Again
You are correct. You should have. Then you shold have kicked the sh*t out of your so called friend who knew the car had an issue and decided it would be cool to loan it to you knowing it had a problem. If they would have taken it in and had it corrected before the hand over this would have all... -

Rear wheel well taper
Actually the meaning I intended was: Don't do the tires. NOT doing the BFG's is not the best option. I Love those tires and never have regretted them. I highly reccommend them. A near choice is the General Grabber AT2. It is available in the stock tire size, and has a very similiar tread to... -
Recall Notice
P045 relates to the rotary coupler (under the airbag) on RRS and LR3, should take like 1/2 hour to do. DUE to a failure to a safety system, this is a recall, meaning it is mandated by the NHTSA. Q041 applies to all 03-05 Full-Size RR and is a pinion coupler and driveshaft replacement. This is... -
Rear wheel well taper
There are entire threads on this, but the short answer, is the shape is to cover the rear A/C lines for cars so equipped. With that size, you should have no rubbing in the front in any condition, and you will have rubbing in the back on the bump in the place you mentioned, but only in an... -
Rear Hatch Squeaking
Something to check is the ball mounts for the upper gate struts. They just thread into the upper part of the quarter panel. If they are loose, they can generate a noise. If they are loose and you remove the strut, get a helper and do one side at a time, and use loctite to prevent in the future. -

LR3's "Land Rover" hood letters same as 2004 Discovery II ?
You could, but I prefer you deal with your locals unless they are totally bad. I'm more on the board to soak up knowledge and help out where I can than to drum up business. -
LR3's "Land Rover" hood letters same as 2004 Discovery II ?
Did Trek in 2003. The hardest day I ever had, but a bunch of fun. I'm letting some younger up and comers take the day for this event, but if one can't make it, I'm going. Thanks for your commnets. I think what makes or breaks a dealer is if they have the passion, or if they are going in to... -
LR3's "Land Rover" hood letters same as 2004 Discovery II ?
So you got me interested and I went to the bin to check it out. Both of these come on flat cardboard sheets, with film on the fronts. The film keeps the letters in the proper spacing until they are set down. You pull the backing, lay it down on the car, and when you have it correct, you press... -
Heavy Duty Package
One way to tell is to crawl under an look, but it is not easy. A locking diff will have a motor and harness on top toward the rear of the unit while an open one will not. If you search this forum for "locker", there is a thread fairly recently called "retrofit rear end" that has a link to Ebay... -

Just noticed a new HSE tire at Tire Rack
One of our customers has these on his full-size and he likes them alot. Quiet and good grip. We took a group to Great Sand Dunes NP, here in Colorado and he was very happy with them on-road, off-road and in the sand. No long-term results just yet. -
Transmission jerking?
GGS masks it becuase it starts out in second gear. If you sit with the car running in Drive and swith to GGS, you will feel a bump, and when you swith it back, it will bump again. At least in my car.
