    18" New Defender Steelies on 2010 LR4

    It looks clean. If I get new rims I'd get a set of polished aluminum, but I have found any that I like. The whole idea is to run BFG All Terrains with the white lettering on the outside. I love those tires.

    Fluids change after 9 years?

    I personally would flush the brake fluid and change the engine oil. Then at 40k I'd do gear oil and tranny fluid.

    P0101 my latest gremlin after gassing up

    I'd unplug the MAF connectors, inspect them and re-seat them.

    Different oil level readings with hood open

    Interesting observation. As an aside, when my oil level was low I didn't see the "Add x quarts" message. That would have been convenient because I was asking myself how much to add. It was all the way down so I put in 1 quart but that tripped the overfill condition.

    Alternative sound system

    I might get a quote for a shop to do it. I'm not sure where to route the power cable through the firewall. I heard there might be a way through via stub for a clutch pedal on the passenger side (USA). Where did they go through the firewall on your rig?

    Alternative sound system

    I'm in the city now, downtown Las Vegas where the music is loud. I might sell the equipment or put it in storage when I go back out into the country so that I can use the space to sleep and store more important gear.

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    You don't agree with what? They didn't ask to do the additional labor, but either way it isn't a big deal. In the past when I've taken my car in they make a diagnosis. Then they cal and propose a solution and that it will cost $x and it will take about x amount of time.

    Alternative sound system

    I'm thinking I might sacrifice the cargo room and get a 12" JL ported box, an amp and a bass level control. I need bass lol. Where did they run the positive and negative wires to the amp from? Did they draw from the battery?

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    I took the LR4 into the shop and at noon they said they couldn't reproduce the reduced power problem and would try again later. I told them what I was doing when the problem happened and got a call from them saying they swapped cam sensors because there was bad information on the CAN bus (or...

    There may be nothing you can do... P0016

    When my LR4 goes into reduced power mode, it seems like its running on 4 cylinders and its definitely noticeable. It doesn't sound like reduced power mode is functioning properly or there are variations of reduced power mode.

    Aftermarket Exhaust anyone?

    The exhaust does sound better. Its noticeable, but for me its too quiet. I'm pretty sure whatever he is selling is at least $500 if not more and for that I'd want a lot more snarling sound and even better with crackle and pops on de-acceleration. I might try keeping one muffler for each side...

    Aftermarket Exhaust anyone?

    I haven't heard it, I'd like to though since they are replacing the factory rearmost muffler. Its that factory muffler in the rear that I think needs to be replaced and then have the front resonators removed with an X pipe. That way the exhaust won't be too loud, yet it won't have a raspy sound...

    Aftermarket Exhaust anyone?

    I searched high and low for a sound I liked but in the end I kept the factory exhaust. Its harder for the cops to spot me. A lot of the cars around here sound pure bad azs, but everyone can hear them coming and I have been pulled over in the past by that very same problem. Its entrapment is what...

    There may be nothing you can do... P0016

    I wouldn't drive too far with it, if at all. There is potential for catastrophic failure. The chain on my '12 was loose enough to move it with my finger, but no codes it was just clacking loud. The new chain is as stiff as a board. They replaced the cam actuators too as a preventative measure...

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    I'll need to learn what parts its referring to. Thanks for that. I'm starting to wonder if the reduced power mode and the MIL are separate problems and not related. I was on the highway in January and the MIL illuminated. I panicked because it was the desert at 75 MPH and the first time I've...

    2016 LR4 Landmark SCV6 Engine Failure at 65k. WWYD?

    If the body is in good condition and it rides and drives fine otherwise I'd get the reman engine and possibly crank up the boost. The only other option would be a V8 Defender and that is over my budget. Plus its unibody. I think your LR4 would perform better in a crash.

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    I have an old snapshot from 3k miles ago before winter that has a P003C code but the printout says the current code is different, P003E. Is it the same trouble code? The check engine light wasn't on when I pulled the codes on the laptop

    That is a lot of play for 43k mi of use, or do you mean its never been changed? I did my chain at 100k.

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    Driving on the freeway the other day the engine fell on its face for the first time ever and the yellow check engine light started flashing. I pull off and it seems like its running on 4 cylinders so I'm cruising to find a good spot to park and the yellow light shuts off. Then I park, pull the...

    Highest mileage LR4?

    New prices are silly. There was a new Bronco with 35's at the gym yesterday and it did not look like it would be fun doing big passes at 90 MPH on the freeway with those tires, if it even has enough balls. The LR4 strikes a good balance between offroad and onroad driving with luxury, power and...

    Check the throttle position sensor to see if it reflects 100% throttle input.

    Low tire pressure indicator light didn't shut off

    The winch came in and no way is it a rebuilt part. Total lie. Its a used part and could have the same problem as what I just went through. Tbh, the one that came off looks a lot better.

    Why do american trucks get much better mpg that the lr4?

    Getting 8.7 MPG now driving in 2nd gear around town. It tapped into a new level of fun with the LR4.
