LR4 - Is there an equivalent in ride/driving experience?

2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
It seems to me that the starter isn’t trying to turn the flywheel. It’s like the starter gets power but doesn’t actually try to move. Hard to explain, I have a video but no method to post. -

I’m doing that and the starter solenoid clicks but it’s not turning the flywheel, however I can turn the crank by hand so the engine isn’t seized. -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Jumping the starter relay gets it to click but it’s not moving the flywheel. Almost like it doesn’t have enough juice to move it. I can turn the crank by hand though so I know it’s not locked up. -

Good news is, it’s most likely electrical. Put a socket on the crank pulley and it turns easily. Starter works independently, jumped it with straight 12v B4 install -

Interesting. Mine def has the stiff brake pedal but I can’t get it to go soft. Hopefully the starter fixes it so I can sell this POS. These things are junk. I’ve never owned a vehicle with so many issues and errors, including two Ferraris. -

2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Well, todays LR adventure is a starting issue. I drive the Rover on Sunday and parked it in the drive. Went to start it yesterday and all I got was a relay click. Battery reading was around 12.5 per GAP which was low IMO so I pulled it this afternoon and had it tested at AutoZone. Tested... -
