    Sqeaky passenger rear wheel after disc and rotor change

    Recently started hearing an annoying sqeak/squeel from passenger side rear wheel. These were new discs and rotors from Atlantic British. Touch the brake petal and it would stop. Also recognized it started when making righthand turns. Not driving straight or making left turns. Took off tire...

    transmission slow to engage coming off stop

    Will start by saying that after I completed the tran filter change and refill, the linkage was fixed by adjustment. I loosened clamp on cable from the linkage lever and pushed clamp connector further back on the cable and re-tightened. A thirty second job and no more issue with Drive slipping...

    transmission slow to engage coming off stop

    Thank-you! I will definitely adjust linkage. Filter change - Got the Tran pan unbolted and dropped and found a mirror and drop cord light and was able to find the location of plastic stem that the Atlantic British video described as needing to be cut off. Based on video, I had bought a 12 inch...

    transmission slow to engage coming off stop

    In the middle of a transmission filter change, but I agree. Underneath, the linkage is on the right side of transmission. The cable tightener is attached to a lever into the transmission which moves internals to different gears Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive. Not sure how sport mode and...

    transmission slow to engage coming off stop

    Intermittent problem with 2006 lr3 hse. Mostly occurs coming off a stop after driving for awhile. Take foot off brake and instead of normal creep forward of engaged transmission, its like in neutral. Step on gas and hear whirring/whirling engine racing sound then transmission engages without...

    System Faults

    Agree, weak battery and lots of faults for me to puzzle and worry about. New battery and bliss returned for $200 bucks last summer. Battery was not cheap but worth it today at -12F.

    2006 LR3 HSE Satellite XM radio capabilities?

    I did that, but the number was weird looking upper and lower case with numbers and special characters, like it was overlaid in memory. I called Sirius with it and my VIN and they said the car did not have a radio... based on VIN. I went back to look at the EIN again and it had changed. Is this a...

    2006 LR3 HSE Satellite XM radio capabilities?

    Hi after buying the LR3, I read the owner manual and it appeared it supported Satellite XM radio. It had Sat1 and Sat2 configuration screens on the Small center Mode screen and showed some form of garbled ID, maybe prefixed with Sirius ID or something like HSN. Called Sirius with my VIN and...

    Lug nut thread engagement issue

    Drove the new tires on XD Series wheels in question from Wisconsin to Colorado and back this week. No problems. Checked torque on lugs a couple times during trip, all good. Got some extender lug nuts, will see how/if they give any more thread depth, first seeing if they fit into other set of 5...

    LR3 Battery

    I bought a used 2006 lr3 hse last march. Had it about 4 months and after taking it for an oil change and inspection, noticed a sluggish start. A couple days later, the computer started throwing weird errors. I didn't have a code reader, but didn't believe the error codes. Removed cables and...

    Lug nut thread engagement issue

    Thanks for replies. I'll call the place I bought it and ask the questions. It was shop owner's vehicle, he used it to drive to work (3 miles) and shop used it to trailer tow in cars needing repairs. Didn't know enough to recognize or ask question about original wheels. I notice the rear tire...

    Lug nut thread engagement issue

    Prior LR owner, owner Euro shop, and Land Rover Specialist/technician did it with Land Rover parts. I didn't request it, coils on it when I went to look at it. Put it up on lift to look underneath.

    Lug nut thread engagement issue

    Bought this 2006 LR3 last march. Tires had some wear, but overall was/am very happy with it. First, Land Rover. Still getting acquainted, but it's sure footed, powerful, sounds great (Flowmax exhaust), and runs down the road smooth, straight and quiet. The Performance shop did work on it...

    Old guy - New member

    Bought a 2006 LR3 HSE last March from a Euro performance shop in Illinois. I live in southern Wisconsin above Lake Wisconsin on a bluff in the woods, with a steep but paved driveway. Moved back to WI from Colorado end of 2014. First snow, I quickly found my Chrysler T&C couldn't handle driveway...
