    2013 LR4 Suspension Compressor

    I found an AMK unit in the UK that was quite a bit cheaper; I think I've provided details in a previous thread; the company was Island 4X4. The install is pretty easy.

    Add seat memory?

    Please keep us posted on your progress, I'm definitely interested in this upgrade :-).

    gallery pressure

    Just found this for gallery pressure: ~240-260psi I purchased the AMK compressor in the UK from Island4x4 (this was a quick search so please verify), also I read you have a Hitachi, personally I'd swap to the AMK but you have to flash the firmware...

    gallery pressure

    I can offer the charts in this thread: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/2012-lr4-reluctant-to-lower-from-off-road-suspension-mode.44636/page-5 They're not exactly what you're after but I believe in the thread I speak about gallery pressure (it's 230 psi if I recall?). If I get some time...

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    Did you also do the middle and rear block? I did the front one first; then the rear one and then the middle one. I was chasing another problem and ended up doing all valves in my hunt for a resolution... It's still sitting pretty! Good luck.

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    Wish I could remember to advise you but I don't, as mentioned; the kit worked well, take your time, clean everything up and use a tiny amount of silicon grease to help with the sealing.

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    I was in the UK for three weeks this past summer; the rig didn't drop at all while we were away. Not sure what else to say, I'm a believer! I used a tiny amount of silicon grease to make sure they're free to work; I serviced all three valves (front, middle and rear for the newbies). In fact...

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    If it was just replaced could it be an issue with how it was fitted, did the sagging happen after it was replaced? I'm a big fan of pulling it apart and looking for silica dust, I believe it wreaks havoc with the operation of the valve.

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    I'm not sure of the difference but I seem to recall different part numbers front to rear; TBH better to be safe than sorry and make sure you use the right components. In the thread that I linked above I believe I also copied the link to where I purchased the o'rings; ever since I did the work...

    Be honest! What's the deepest snow you've driven in with your LR4

    Tires are absolutely everything when it comes to snow driving, a crap car with good snow tires will typically do much better than a good car with crap tires; it's basic laws of physics. The same is true with the mass and momentum of this vehicle, tire size, etc. If you want the vehicle to be...

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    This thread is where I started looking at the front valve, a couple of YouTube videos are referenced, also, feel free to read the thread as I go down the rabbit hole with the suspension (and get great help from the awesome folks here :-) )...

    2016 LR4 Suspension Issue

    It's a little weird that with the fuse out the vehicle stays still, to me this implies that there's not a leak. You see, with the fuse in the vehicle can adjust vehicle height as needed even when it's not operating. Regardless, I would pull the valve block out (it's in the passenger side front...

    2016 HSE, wet floormats, and can't find the drain ends!

    Cool - Thanks, this will hopefully help others that follow, a picture being worth a thousand words!...

    2016 HSE, wet floormats, and can't find the drain ends!

    So is the water going down through the area with the arrows as indicated here?

    Front brake pads on 2013LR4 funny looking weight?

    So essentially throw an extra mass on it to change the resonant frequency! Was this a post design fix? Lexus used to do this regularly for NVH (Noise Vibration Harshness).

    Rear crossover pipe screw stripped..

    That's super weird, esp. with Torx. I agree, let is soak over night with some PB Blaster and also figure out if you can keep is mechanically engaged as you try to undo it, can you get something behind the head of the wrench/rachet to push the Torx bit into the head of the bolt? (I know there's...

    Rear crossover pipe screw stripped..

    Is the Torx bit engaging and spinning but the bolt is not coming out? You seem to be implying that the threads are stripped, not a problem with the Torx given you've removed the three other bolts?

    2012 Lr4 service required message “Reset”

    Cool - Thanks, never noticed it before.

    Control arm fail

    Looks like it may have failed close to a weld (see 1 in the image); I don't think it's rust given how clean the edge of the crack is (see 2 in the image): An area around a weld is typically a harder area and more susceptible to fatigue, it really depends on the technology of the weld, was it...

    Control arm fail

    I think there was something similar with one of the offroad guys in this forum but this is really bad; there was also discussion around the polybush and how stiff they are. Overly stiff is not good as it can increase the load on the control arm and lead to a fatigue failure on the control arm...

    2012 Lr4 service required message “Reset”

    Thanks, right now I'm less than 15,000 miles; I had the dealership do the last oil change and recall them resetting the service required reminder. My question is more around the behavior I'm seeing; the fact that it pops up for a few seconds and then disappears, is this normal? I have the GAP...

    2012 Lr4 service required message “Reset”

    Folks, just after engine on but once all the other instrument panel lights have gone off I see a "Service Required" warning, which after a few seconds disappears. Is this normal behavior or should the "Service Required" stay illuminated if indeed a service is required? I'm not aware of any...
