    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    Note - steering tie rod still attached to the knuckle. That limits pulling the knuckle outwards.........didn't want to detach the tie rod ball joint as doubtless boot will tear and I don't have a replacement.

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    So........ LCA is now hanging down again only connected to the knuckle by the ball joint. I tried pulling the hub towards me as you suggest. In reality it only moves up and down as per normal direction of travel, not out towards me per se. This straightens the CV axle which would seem to do...

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    By now the thread on the end of the shaft is compromised, so either needs recutting or a new drive shaft at this point. I am getting past the point of caring

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    Air hammer would not budge it?? Had to reinstall the LCA minus the one bushing where I had cut the bolt out. Not a great result. Getting it towed to my mechanic on Monday to let him sort it out........

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    Out of interest, were the splines on your where they enter the knuckle rusted too? Never had this issue on my old Saab. $÷€^&£_÷÷÷3₩!!!! It seems I have damaged the thread ever so slightly on the shaft. Nothing visible. Nut goes on fully but was binding slightly and left small burrs of metal...

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    Thanks! Not familiar with air tools or how heavy duty an air hammer I need, or compressor size required? (CFM @ what pressure?) - any suggestions based on experience welcome, as I need to buy the air hammer and compressor ASAP, or see if I can rent. Online research not that illuminating.....

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    Stuart, Thanks for your response. Unfortunately no air hammer. I can see 5mm depth of splines exposed from my hammering so far. Quite rusty which is causing the problem. Not replacing upper control arm, so nut splitter it is I guess, or grind it. "Just make sure the driveshaft doesn’t pop out...

    2010 LR4 LCA replacement...... drive shaft pain :(

    So........ girded my ***** and am in the middle of replacing the LCA's on my 2010. Drivers side LCA bolts all undone (had to cut one). Ready to remove it, but not enough clearance between the ball joint and the drive shaft. Had read this is an issue on earlier vehicles. Pop the drive shaft out...

    Back Crossover/Heater Manifold Repair

    No, intake manifold needs to come off. Just did the front crossover and heater manifold on my 2010. Overall pretty easy job. I used painters tape to cover intake ports. Hardest part was getting the heater manifold bolts off and reinstalled without dropping them. A bit fiddly, but not too bad.

    P2019A error code

    Have found Bosch upstream O2 sensors at a reasonable price. Plan is to replace those, then see and replace downstream sensors if needed as next step. Thank you SO much for your help!!

    P2019A error code

    O2 lambda values for sensor 1 look fine. Short term fuel trim bank 1 seems to show widest fluctuations

    Still getting the 0% for O2 sensor heated duty cycle bank 1 sensor 2.

    P2019A error code

    Hey, thanks. Yes engine was warm. Some of readings different from when I tried it yesterday, so figured there may be some variability based on Gap IID connectivity issues etc. Will look for the O2 sensor voltage readings as you suggest. O2 sensors should always be replaced in pairs - right? Any...

    Last one is fuel trim....... again, not sure what this may be telling me?

    Fuel rail pressure - not sure what this is telling me?

    Looks like something up with O2 sensor(s).
