Rethinking Adding Rear Entertainment - Thoughts?
Hi guys, Does my 2016 car with RES accept multiple discs simultaneously in my head unit disc slot? i.e. is it a 6-disc changer? Or a single disc? The build sheet for my car, and any online info I am finding on the RES, show that the $2500 system includes a DVD changer. So to avoid risking... -

Rethinking Adding Rear Entertainment - Thoughts?
I love ours, in the 2016. For many reasons mentioned above, I agree. iPads can be projectiles, looks ugly hanging, those mounts always wear out quick and I have to order 2-3 in a year, we sometimes forget them at home, or the battery dies because didn't get the charger or the kids unknowingly... -

LR4 Interior LED Lights
Sadly I stand corrected. Just like the OP, I too am experiencing trouble with the front door puddles. They work, but it's just that they don't come on unless the engine is on, and only AFTER its on when you open the front door(s), do they light up. Then, if you shut the engine off, open the... -

LR4 Halogen Bulb Upgrading - Highly Recommended
Update, Umberto specifically: So it seems the front puddle lights with LEDs is not perfect after all. Last night with more testing, I discovered that the light doesn't always come on. I'd have to fire up the engine, close the door, and then it's on. Subsequent door closures and openings again... -

LR4 Halogen Bulb Upgrading - Highly Recommended
Did this last night. Easy. I installed these (got em last year for another car that I took em off, and for a lesser price than shown here, which is good as they are kinda pricey, but they are tops and the warranty is 3 years)... -

LR4 Re-purchase (2011 to 2016)
I agree on the style piece which is why I decided to go for the last of the current gen (2016) but I can't agree on the engine. I had a 2011 RRS so I am highly familiar with the great (but thirsty!) V8 5L. But this SCV6 is really leaving me nothing to be desired, I even like how it sounds. When... -

What is the smaller net accessory used for?
Right, that's for the larger net. I just don't know what the smaller one is for. Guess I will ask the dealership when I get the chance. -

LR4 Interior LED Lights
Thanks! I will try that tonight on the gbox. As for your troubles with the front door puddle lights, I recall clearly with my 2011 RRS that it behaved exactly the same as my 2016 LR4 did now; where they initially did not light up (when I replaced the halos with the LEDs). But I simply had to... -

What is the smaller net accessory used for?
My HSE LR4 came with the protection package, and that included the large cargo tie-down net that lays flat across the cargo floor on the 4 chrome hooks. However I also got a near-identical-looking net, but a smaller version of it. No idea what to do with it. Anyone know? And was this part of the... -

LR4 Interior LED Lights
The solution to the front 2 doors' puddle lights replacement with LEDs is, to install, close the door(s), lock the car, unlock, start the engine, and it should work. If not, while engine still running, close the door, open it again, and then it definitely should work. Not sure why the... -

Last date to custom order a 2016 LR4 thru dealership?
Deuce that's right, the Silver and Landmarks are great values, because yeah I was contemplating a white on black Silver one (2016.5) with the same options as a 2016 HSE one that was optioned pretty much the same, and the Silver one despite having more things, was priced LESS (MSRP)! Actually... -

LR4 Halogen Bulb Upgrading - Highly Recommended
So apparently, at least according to my 2016 manual, the fog lights can be removed/replaced via access straight through the cover that's visible. No need to go into the hood or underneath the car or pop out any bumper pieces at all. Just unscrew 3 screws after you pop off the cover and just... -

Help! Need a Sanity Check for LR4 Pricing
Hi all, I realize this thread is about 11-12 months old, but, I'm curious ... it's been stated that, apparently, this time last year ... LR4s were literally in very few dealers' lots? What was going on nationwide with them, if true? Super low supply? I was told by a manager at the dealer (just... -

Front park sensors sometimes late/nonfunctional?
This is on a 2016 HSE. I noticed sometimes with the park button illuminated, meaning the fronts are active, sometimes I creep up to an object in front of me to see if they come on, and they don't (no beeping nor screen display of the graphic). Sometimes they do but they're delayed, uncomfortably... -

Which One?
^^ Also way more character (X5 is a great machine but let's face it...):cool: -

Which One?
Better style, seating position, ambiance (subjective), resale value, proper 3rd row, bigger boot in general, air suspension that allows you to go up n down...etc. I wouldn't say for nothing ;) -

Which One?
Wise choice, owners with the MPPK are unanimously happy with it. -

Which One?
Ah shoot I forgot about that pack, but that's just an ECU factory mod. Still same engine, not the modified N63TU one. Either way they're beasts, I've driven BMWs powered by both aplenty, both on and off track. :biggrin: -

LR4 Halogen Bulb Upgrading - Highly Recommended
Thanks, hope not. I assume the tips apply to the 2014-2016 models too? I'll try tonight, hopefully. I am just looking to do the fogs (I have an HSE so the HIDs are standard...btw they're bi-xenons right? High beams seem to be just a mirror reflector moving around?). Thx -

LR4 vs. Volvo XC90
FWIW, those that lease ... I looked into the rates for XC90s, and they're pretty crap. That made my decision to come back to the LR family easy ... -

LR4 vs. Volvo XC90
"Quite honestly, I’d be happy with any of them, and ideally you’d want an amalgam, but for me the Q7 falls first as its greatest strengths aren’t in the conventional family SUV areas. The Disco is out next. I still adore it for its astonishing range of capabilities, but the XC90 feels cleverer... -

Which One?
Not accurate there, Surf. Those models years for those 2 BMW vehicles you had sported the N63, with 400hp / 450 lb-ft, and no valvetronic. The engine you speak of is the N63TU, which has VT and 450hp / 480 lb-ft. Yes, the TU was offered in 2013 but only for the 7 and 6 series. The 2014 X5, and... -

Real world MPG on the LR4
Ah yes, just confirmed that. Indeed that is correct. So then it works out to 16.8. They aren't allowed to round up. Only down :biggrin: -

Real world MPG on the LR4
Anyone know why the current LR4 has a combined MPG rating of 16? The math doesn't add up. 15 + 19 = 34 which divided by 2 is ... 17. So, what happened there with the feds?
