2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Absolutely agreed, I see it as paying it forward; there's nothing worse than following a thread, then having somebody say "I fixed the issue" only to discover that the resolution is missing :( - Great! -
Suspension Fault Issues
You're bang on the money, reset all the codes and then see which ones keep coming back... Once you've got some consistent ones then start trying to figure out what's causing them. For example, mine kept having a mirror code issue, figuring it wasn't that important I ignored it until I had... -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
This is great to know, LR4 won't start with particular symptoms then look at the mega fuse which is part number LR080537 and rated at 400a, a great search that hopefully helps others who stumble on this issue (perhaps us one day!). -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Excellent - did you get any photos for us to see? These will help others that follow! -
Suspension Fault Issues
It will give you many codes that the IIDTool will so it's definitely a good starting point; in the aforementioned post I provided some of the graphs that the tool can provide; so opening and closing of valves. For $49 that pretty darn good and at least gets you in the OBD game! Keep us posted... -
Suspension Fault Issues
In my long post on my suspension woes I mention the poor mans IIDTool: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QD4GZW4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 In the end I succumbed and bought the IID tool and this solved all my issues by reflashing for the AMK compressor (Suspension ECU... -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Any chance of a photo - I'm curious. Sorry the starter didn't work; knowing this I'd be looking at things that can stop it turning over, so brake pedal switch, gear selector (?), lack of juice, etc... -
2013 to 2014 Face Lift Headlight Install
I had a lot of little issues when I started with mine (still have many more issues to resolve...), finickity stuff that was annoying! Part of what made it mine was working through these issues... Hang tough you will get there! Figure out what's important and start there; don't sweat the... -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
I'd be curious to hear about the steps involved, I was looking for a YouTube video but couldn't find a great step by step video for the LR4! Keep us posted - Thanks. -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
Not sure how difficult it is to remove the starter and simply test it when it's out but that's what I would do; I'd be looking to ensure that it's: 1) Turning 2) Has enough grunt to push the pinion gear in to the flywheel The answer to these two questions may help figure out if you need a... -
Screeching sound in front of car after first turned off
The suspension also "off gases" I believe, meaning I sometimes hear mine letting off pressure, I realize this is not a squealing sound; could it be somehow related to that? A video would be super helpful... Is it repetitive? Is it just on the engine-off event, so could it be something that... -
2012 US Spec 5.0 Won’t Start
That battery warning I believe is normal, I've seen it before when I'm in the car; have the radio playing and the engine's not running. The car will do a lot to stop auxiliary systems from draining the battery. I'd take the advice already provided and try to add axillary power to the battery... -
Overlander Question
oh boy BigBriDogGuy - When it rains it pours - quite literally. I hope good fortune starts coming your way :cool: -
Interior sill plate protection
Thanks - I did see this but was looking for something more permanent (like a aluminum plate or similar)... -
Overlander Question
I think one aspect that you can't account for with the LR4 is just how amazing they are; it strikes me that many people (me included) buy them but don't fully comprehend how great they are until it's too late... I don't necessarily think they're any less reliable than any other vehicle; the... -
Interior sill plate protection
Just wondering if anyone has found/installed an interior sill plate protector? My paint work is pretty scratched up and I'd like to (1) cover it up and (2) give it some more protection; here's a photo: Ideally the solution would have some curvature to it so that it wraps over the issue... -
Every Fault Known To Man
I still have to do the drain tubes! I think you're in the right area in terms of battery/alternator/earth strap; the biggest single issue is going to be finding out which one! I think being on here will certainly help. I guess I'd try and rule out the simple stuff first, so I'd probably be... -
Rear handbrake - learning from my mistakes!
I recently had a very weird noise coming from my rear left (US - passenger side) wheel, it was sufficiently loud that when passing pedestrians they'd look over at the LR4 (and probably helped perpetuate the perception that they're unreliable)... Anyway, lots of weird and different noises were... -
Every Fault Known To Man
Is Washington State as bad as the UK for rain??? You'd think these things are excellent in the rain given their heritage! Thinking sunroof drain pipes in particular! Anyway, sorry to hear about your misfortune. -
Oil Change Just Because It's Been 18 Months?
Laughing - sorry! :cool: Thank you for the responses, I was hoping to avoid a huge long thread so yeah being very lazy!... -
Oil Change Just Because It's Been 18 Months?
What oil do you use when you do change it? I'm hoping this is an innocuous question as I'm curious but realize there may be some holy wars in this realm, in which case I apologize profusely for asking... -
Buying this 2015 LR4 Lux Pkg w/ HD Pkg, but am freaking out about the RUST! Should I walk?
I have Por-15 added to my Amazon wish list and this is a project I was planning for the summer! I'll be curious how your daughters LR4 looks! -
Buying this 2015 LR4 Lux Pkg w/ HD Pkg, but am freaking out about the RUST! Should I walk?
I agree, there's nothing there to worry about! I'm in Michigan, sure, there's rust on the cars!... If chunks of rust/metal are falling off then you need to worry but what you have here is surface rust! -
LR Time YouTube Videos
I couldn't agree more; some of the work they do is simply amazing and so much fun at the same time. I really appreciated their review of the V6 gas engine and his analysis of the crank issues (a few weeks ago now I believe). Complete kudos to Christian and Vera for the amazing contributions to... -
Timing Chains INA or Tsubaki how to tell?
I guess you'd need to understand typical failure rates and then extrapolate from there, in bike chains I think the chain stretching causes the majority of issues since this then leads to additional wear on the gears which in turn leads to gear/chain slippage. In the images shown above there's...
