How to: Supercharger Removal, Rear Crossover, and Passenger Valve Cover
. I am exhausted from using pliers and vice grips, but can't seem to find a decent specialty tool. Can you specify a reasonably good tool? -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
Buy a vaccuum fill setup - you will need a small air compressor if you don't already have one. It's a whole lot easier than trying to bleed from the various bleed ports. Just make sure that whatever you get has the adapter to attach to the reservoir. My vaccuum setup is Astro 78585 -... -
2016 LR4 Coolant Crossover, Water Pump, Thermostat Replacement
Getting ready to do all this on the 2016. (I did the 2013 back in Dec.) So just to be sure, I don't see intake manifold gaskets on the parts lists, so I do ?NOT? need to remove the intake manifold on the 2016? If it's coming off it's getting new gaskets! Or do I not understand this project... -
Quick Compressor Replacement Question
Thanks! So any input on going from the AMK to the Hitachi? Re-programming? Looks like that K&N Breather filter will save a few $ with no downside! Yup, I learned very early on, way back in the '70's that my work on a vehicle is always superior to the dealership. And although expensive, I... -
Quick Compressor Replacement Question
Hey everyone! Getting ready to do the compressor on the 2016 and there are a few questions. Rover cannot tell me definitively which compressor was originally installed, they can only tell me that because it's a newer model that it probably came with the AMK. Does anyone know for sure that this... -
2010 V8 serpentine and accessory belt replacement
I have these and they work on the 2013 V8 - left hand thread. Watch which way you turn - depends on your year of course... NO supercharger it's a left hand thread, with supercharger it's a standard thread. These are the tools as specified in the mechanics manual. Amazon: DPTOOL Viscous Fan... -
Heated windshields
Is it a factory window or has it been replaced? it might just be a bad connection on the passengers side. On the interior pillar about 2/3 of the way up, pop off that piece of plastic, it's been a while but I believe that the connector is there. If not, then loosen that torqx and remove the... -
Does 5G Cellphone network impact us?

Snow chains recommendations
I grew up in Wisconsin (but real mountain terrain and snow not so much), we used chains probably all of 2 times my entire growing up years. Always a pain, hopefully better technology nowadays. But then came studded snow tires - remember those? And then actual real snow tires. Now I am in... -

Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues
I have the mechanics manuals for 2009-2012, 2014 and 2016. They are widely available on-line and they are inexpensive. As I recall I got them from Craigs Manuals, good service and immediate downloads. Inexpensive as well. I use Palm Beach Rover for my parts. Seldom the least expensive, but... -
Intake Valve Cleaner Chemicals - Your Opinion on Immediate Change of Oil
Just cleaned the MAF sensors and the throttle body. Ready to clean the valves with a can of spray (CRC if it matters). Any thoughts on the need to change the oil after this? Some concern about unburned chemicals making their way into the oil, and compatibility of the chemicals with engine... -
IID Tool Recommendation
Finally had a few minutes to get to this. Thanks for the menu help. It has been quite a while since I first attempted this reset, but this looks familiar. Anyway, new phone, so downloaded all new files. It worked this time and the "Maintenance Required" message is now gone. -
IID Tool Recommendation
No, I have not updated the software since the initial "install", and I do need to do that. The message that will not clear is the "Maintenance Required" that flashes up at startup for 5 or 6 seconds. As I recall that was an "irritation reminder" to get the vehicle to the dealership and not... -
Prolonged engine choke operation when starting from cold
Not sure about Toronto, but here in Houston I likely put more than 9 cents of vapor to the air every time I fill it up - while vapor recovery is "required" here almost all stations have disabled it. I look at it this way - what is the total footprint of a small amount of emissions for winter... -
IID Tool Recommendation
I defer to the highly experiences folks, but my IID Tool experience was less than anticipated. I purchased mine directly from the manufacturer. The company was hard to work with, did not return e-mails. I found the registration process to be exceedingly poorly documented and highly frustrating... -
Need some help/advice on my washer fluid pump...I think
No headlight jets on this one. But we had them on the '92 Isuzu Trooper - as they got older they seeped and then began to stain the paint. I disconnected before any permanent paint damage was done. -
Need some help/advice on my washer fluid pump...I think
Daughter finally had a few minutes to perform a remote diagnostic session. So whatever had probably frozen at 7F was unfrozen at 27F. Pump still works, no re-set required. Pumped out alot of "washer fluid" and back filled with the good stuff -25F. She has instructions to continue running the... -
Really Stupid Question - Time required to reach operating temperature (V6)?
Daughter in Rochester, NY finally had some time to spend with the 2016. At 26F, Idle 10 minutes - dash indicated dead cold. Hold at 2K RPM for 7-8 minutes - at normal operating temp Recalibrated her expectations on how long it should take to warm up! Thanks! -

SAD ENDING TO OUR LR4
I would be highly tempted to buy it back and repair it myself. Although hard to tell, at first glance it looks mostly cosmetic and body plus some possible suspension repairs. Can you tell if there is any frame damage?? -
Need some help/advice on my washer fluid pump...I think
Sounds logical. Would be better if there was an automatic reset tied to ambient temperature rather that requiring a trip to the dealership- oh wait, silly me…. At least some of us have invested in the IIDTool, Sounds like I play with it on the 2013, then send the IID to my daughter so we can... -

So what is the sensor triggering on? -
Need some help/advice on my washer fluid pump...I think
I was just going to ask that! I can play with it here on the 2013 then send it to her and she can reset the required parameter on her 2016 as long as she can add the app to her phone. (Yes, my IID is set up for both trucks.) So, what is the exact parameter that needs to be reset for this... -
Need some help/advice on my washer fluid pump...I think
Hmmm, we shall see what happens when we get it defrosted. I can't do that reset from across the country, might be a trip to the remote Rover Dealership - at least people seem to rate them highly. OR actually, can I send her the IIDTool and do it from across the country on my phone?? Anyone...
