    LR5 Release Updates?

    I'm glad that's confirmed. My DiscoII SD didn't have arm rests and it pissed me off every time I got in the truck. Things I did like, 16 wheels and no factory sunroofs which I heard leaked early on.

    LR4 tranny problem?

    Take it to an Advanced Auto Parts, Pep Boys or whatever your local shop is called and they will do a diagnosis for free. Chance are one of these places is closer than a dealer and it's free. My '11 did stall out and it turns out the battery was bad. The one it comes with sucks, get the Die...

    Lease Rates and Invoice Prices

    I was like, wait, I think we have a guy here on the forum who might be Amish;) Hopefully he thinks it's a funny comment. My mother-in-law has a 1st gen 06' X5 4.4 V8 from new with very expensive 19 inch Michelin Latitude Diamaris. The 5 is fun to drive on the twisty NC mountain roads but...

    LR4 tranny problem?

    I don't have an answer to your question, but I was talking to my local LR/Jag indy down here in South Florida and he mentioned that when the transmission goes, (150K + miles) get ready for a huge bill. He said in his experiences that people who rebuild these ZF transmissions can get them apart...

    Installed 275-55-20 tires on 20x9.5 +32 wheels

    I'm really happy with the 265-50/20 G2's. Here in Florida we have mud in North and South Florida and in Central Florida we have Sand Pine Forests.

    Cracked windscreen

    Only the trucks with the Climate Comfort Package have the heated windshields. It also came with the heated steering wheel, heated 1st & 2nd row seats and heated windshield washer jets.

    Cracked windscreen

    Yeah, that's pretty high, do you have the heated windshield? In Florida, by law the insurance company covers windshields 100% with no deductible. My Porsche got broken into a couple years ago and Safelite replaced the passenger window with a SEKURIT window made in Germany which is the...

    Opinions on extended roof rails

    You will only find used ones if someone wants to put a full roof rack that can't be installed with them present. Otherwise, there would be no reason for someone to take them off. I'm with you, the truck looks so right with them on. Can't believe that this truck doesn't come standard with them...

    I have the OEM ones and I don't hear any wind noise from them at all.

    Sunroof shade - solid instead of mesh

    I just realized that you were putting the tint on the inside, I'm also on Porsche chat rooms and we put film on the outsides to protect the glass from rocks. sorry

    Sunroof shade - solid instead of mesh

    If you are only using the tint for heat why don't you install the tint on the inside of the windshield? This way it would last. I also have the factory sun shade, it works very well down in the Miami Heat;)

    Showoff Your LR4

    You will be golden with the 265/50 R 20. I have taken them out 3 times since I got them and there has been no rubbing at all.

    So I took my LR4 Off Roading.

    Was that Hard Rock Off Road Park? It has to be, not too much elevation in Florida. Where are you located? I was wheeling there solo last Sunday on the way back from Florida Land Rover Club (FLRC) Spring Rally that was held in Osceola National Forest. It was too wet at Osceola so wanted to...

    LR4 lQQking

    Got an 11' LUX HD with 70K miles and love it. That being said, I would go with a CPO just in case. Would love to have the upgraded infotainment system in the 12+ models even if it wasn't as good as other cars that age. Sad how bad our system is. I've only used the warranty for a new...

    Mudflaps from Hong Kong

    They look like 255 55 19's I'm taking my flaps off this weekend, actually ripped one off at the gas station on the way home from a Florida Land Rover Club rally last weekend. The rally was at Osceola National Forest on the Fl-GA border. Very wet so didn't get to wheel to much there. On the...

    Headlight bulb replacement

    I ended up ordering off of Amazon. Indy wanted $210 for bulb and install. Looked on youtube and there was video showing how easy it was to remove grill and headlight housing. Due to my bull bar and lights, which had wires placed through them, it was a little more difficult. I can't imagine...

    Mudflaps from Hong Kong

    I have the OEM flaps, they look great but if you go off road get ready for some damage. 3 out of 4 of mine are messed up one way or another. One tore in half and 2 others are holding on by threads. They are hard plastic and don't budge at all whereas the earlier versions for the D1 are rubber...

    Heated from Windshield and tint?

    So did we every figure out if the front clear UV would be de-lamintaed by windshield heater coils from the climate package? I live in South Florida but travel to NC and surrounding areas where there is potential to use it. I don't want tints just the clear UV blocker film. Kaaae, did you...

    Battery life on Discovery 4

    Thanks for the well wishes! I know, I know... It's going to be a disaster, luckily I don't require too much sleep;) I'm blessed though, my mother just retired and lives close by and my out-laws are going to start looking for a place down here in Miami to spend in the winter. 1st grandchild...
