    Steering wheel shake at 50-55 not wheel balancing problem.

    Mine has had similar problems. About every 25k miles. Checked all the usual items the first time. Alignment, balance control arms, etc. LR is heavy and hard on brakes. My indy found a very slight warp.in rotor. Turned all and shake is gone. Ever since, i turn them every 20k or if shake starts...

    This is what happens if you don’t listen to your LR4

    I had a low coolant warning last week. Drove home from work, about 20 mins, at 105 F (typical Austin). Over night the temp dropped quickly to low 70's (also typical.) Started in the morning, and shut off as soon as I saw message. Resevoir was bone dry. Barely even residue. Immediate "LR Forum...

    75k mile service - diff and transfer case fluid change

    I am at 80 on a 14 Disco 4. I torn as what to do with trainy. All dealers and 2 excellent shops say it is sealed for life. 3 dealers dont offer service 2 offer it, but must sign a waiver. One says it really should be done, other says it is a50/50 shot, as the flush systems can introduce micro...

    More proof the LR4 is a very safe vehicle

    PaulLR3.... its cool to know that I am not the only one who uses an LR as a service/work truck! It gets some interesting looks at the job sites. But does a great job, especially when tra

    Control Arm bushings

    My 2014 LR4, with 80,000 miles has at least 1 right front control arm bushing. (I think, haven't had on lift yet. Clunks when braking and speed bumps, in right front. Steering shakes at most speeds, braking or not. I have seen many options from replacing entire control arms to just bushings and...

    What is hanging?

    They are vibration dampeners, or moudlating frequency adsormers. The were NOT added after taking weight out. They are the mechanical conductive sound dampening equivalent of the various "appendicies" you often find on any cars intake manifold, which are to dampen the pulsating for valve overlap...

    Rotor wear advice

    No JLR dealer will turn rotors any more. I have been to 5. My LR4 is prone to warp rotors, and I have heard the same from other owners. Especially if one tows a lot. I turned the original rotors 3 times, and then replaced with EBC premium heavy duty drilled and slotted rotors. I took them to...

    Differential, transfer case, driveshaft ... Your guess?

    If you know someone with a chassis dynamometer (4 wheel) it should be easy to find.

    SCV6 engine noise help

    Mine is not that loud, but cold starts make a similar, but far more subtle noise. After i changed the oil, including using the BG oil treatment first , it mostly went away. It does sound like auto adjust hydraulic lifters with low oil pressure. So if quite cold andoil dirty, it could be the...

    ECO Auto Start/Stop Not Available

    So after looking everywhere on line...after quotes from $374.00 to $450.00 for the exact JLR start battery by Exide, i found an AGM motorcycle battery, 12 vdc, 14 ah, 220 cca, which fits, not oerfectly, but adequately. I had to modify the retaining bracket, and machine some post adaptors, but it...

    Steering wheel shaking after rotor/pads replacement

    It is 99% for sure warpped rotors, actually common on fresh brake jobs with new rotors, if stored vertically, or not slowly broken in on install. Take it back and tell them to turn the rotors. Then when you get it back, accellerate to 30mph and brake hard, down to 10mph, roll for 50 yards and...

    Snorkel - How to

    If you. Over an inlet,, the engine will likely see an imbalance across the 2 MAF, and throw a MIL code, perhaps even go into limp mode. If nit just suck in water if left open. I do not recall seeing any kind of check valve system.

    Gas/air noise from filler

    You will most likely get a code PO496, or similar, eventually. My 2014 does the same. I also checked cap seal and it was better...for a while. The dealer has replaced all of the fuel system, tank, lines, purge solenoids, evap cannister, et . All except the tank pressure test pump...which is...

    Burping Gas Cap / PO496

    I have a 2014 LR$. at 40K miles I started to get a CEL, for PO469 "High Purge Flow". Also noticed that the gas cap, only when in gear, would build up pressure and go pop,pop,pop, or burp, burp, burp. My 9 year old says it farts! ;) When in park, it will burp-pshhhhh, pop and release pressure...
