Intro! Firenze in HD
Answer: 'Morons being morons'...I guess. Paraphrasing- it seems that some things unfortunately never change. Anyway, thanks for sharing your adventure. Awesome day, truck looks great, and certainly more capable. What's next?..some under-armor perhaps, for more challenging routes? Btw- how is the... -

New 2012 LR4 owner with a few questions
Welcome! The wheel style that it appears you have- 20" '10 Double Spoke' is 8.5"w, with 53mm offset. Here's a link to an earlier thread with a pic of the back of that OEM wheel showing the spec stamp. Also pic's of the front to verify the 'style'... -

Can I Get My Vehicle Service History Online
Seems like you should be able to get that from you dealer for free since you have already paid them dearly, but yeah, maybe it's a Canada privacy thing. If you're going to have to pay, you could just run a Carfax report right now for about $40 and see how that looks?? -

+1. Delaminating pales in comparison to full depth (leaking) cracks at critical stress points. What the heck? -

Add Blind Spot Monitoring ? - 2016 LR4 HSE
They sure can be. Largely due to most of the 'packages' and 'options' being pretty much available across the 'trim levels' for a personal factory order. The link below is to an interesting LR marketing bulletin that explains what they did for (literally) a LR4 model year 2016.5 including the... -

Add Blind Spot Monitoring ? - 2016 LR4 HSE
Also, FWIW, the 2016.5 HSE trim level version became ‘HSE-Silver Edition’ and it included the vision assist pack w/ BSM as standard. That ‘pack’ was an option on early 2016 HSE’s so it could very well be ‘pre-wired’. Even so, I imagine you are correct regarding the expense. -

Add Blind Spot Monitoring ? - 2016 LR4 HSE
It came as a part of the 'Landmark Edition' trim on my 2016 along with other driver assist..and other stuff. Essentially the LUX Package for $2470 instead of $8500. The only extra I paid for was the HD Package for $1350 (a bargain for what it does for capability). Only option missing is Adaptive... -

A few pics from the first trail/camp of the season!
Nice set-up! Is that your navigator peering out the back window? (wondering what you are doing?)- LB Bill

Wanted: LR3 Wheels OEM 18x8 'grooved' 10 spoke.
Yeah, I've never done business with them, but I know they've been around for a while. I think they deal mostly with 'take-offs'...both dealer and aftermarket sources, you know, when the buyer just has to have those 'other' wheels...wants that certain RRS style or when OEM just isn't good enough... -

Wanted: LR3 Wheels OEM 18x8 'grooved' 10 spoke.
This Co. appears to have some OEM reconditioned. Not cheap, but they're near by in Santa Fe Springs. https://www.stockwheels.com/Land-Rover-LR3-2007-2009-18x8-Aluminum-Alloy-Silver-10-Spoke-72201-Wheel-Rim -

2012 V8 vs 2016 V6
I wonder how/why it's 'lighter'? (JK, we all know). It's apple vs. orange again...or some such metaphor. -

Tow-ball bike racks that allow the upper tailgate to open?
Here's the one that I use. Slides right into the OEM Tow-hitch receiver. Not very heavy or complex, but does 'swing'/pivot right out of the way allowing upper and lower tailgates to open. It locks on to the receiver and there's a cable lock set up for bikes onto the rack. Easy and quick to... -

2013 LR4 I'm new need advice on wheels
And as a plus, the proportions just LOOK right on the truck, with a decent alloy wheel no less. Nice! Also appears to be a convenient 'air' setup you have going. Any new obstacles/challenges going to the 285's? -

2013 LR4 I'm new need advice on wheels
Looks good! However, if you have 265/65/18 that actually comes in at 31.6" and largely explains why you have some rubbing. Drop it to access ht. and take some tight turns, probably worse. Echoing others, the lift rods alone probably won't solve that for all situations. 265/60/18 = 30"= the LR4's... -

2012 V8 vs 2016 V6
Land Rover did it as well in the 2018-19 RRS 'HSE Dynamic' before moving to the i6 MHEV P360 or P400. Can't imagine it would be that tough to safely get to that output if one felt the need. The 2018 Range Rover Sport HSE Dynamic further elevates both your SUV's style and power. Under the hood it... -

DIY Oil Change for LR4
Glad it all worked out for you! Thanks for taking the time w/ the write-up. Do I use a torque wrench..yep...why?...cause I have one..and it's spec'd...am I anal?...perhaps a little. One thing you might want to consider is exchanging that wrench you purchased for one w/ a little higher range... -

Intro! Firenze in HD
Congrats on your new rig! FWIW, here's a link for a Co. here in So Cal that sells reconditioned and take-off Rover wheels. That 19" wheel- '7 double spoke black' goes for $335 reconditioned. In your year, 2012, that same wheel was fished 'silver' as the 19" and 20" 'Black Packs' weren't... -

Pulls hard right on acelleration
Sorry about the frustration! Back to the recent “crap ton of work” you had done. I know this is rehashing, but if it wasn’t doing that before then doesn’t it seem like the ARB rear locker should be the prime suspect? I say that because after watching your videos (geez btw!), while maybe not the... -

2013 LR4 I'm new need advice on wheels
Did you happen to get a quote from these folks? Looks like they re-sell them for $390 when in stock. You'd have to deliver them, but they are local- in Santa Fe Springs. I may be in the same boat soon... -

New guy here
Yes it does. It worked well and was easy once I purchased a new OEM remote key/fob. Initially I tried using a nock-off version purchased off Amazon for $50, it would not program. I still have to get the backup hard key blank cut by a locksmith, but I haven't bothered with that yet- I have the...- LB Bill

New guy here
Hmm..? Buying the key and paying the dealer to program might be an easy route, but I just programmed a new remote fob for my 16 LR4 using my GAP IID tool ($428 on sale) and a OEM fob I purchased on eBay ($100). Granted, you have to want the IID tool, otherwise the one time dealer deal miiiight...- LB Bill

2013 LR4 I'm new need advice on wheels
265-60-18 is a safe bet. That's only 0.5" larger than the largest stock LR4 offering (255-50-20= 30"), and I'm sure that the full size spare would fit underneath fully inflated. I might consider 265-65-18 with a little more research, but I'm not sure that's worth the effort/risk to me for 0.5"... -

2013 LR4 I'm new need advice on wheels
That was my point about 30.5" and no mods. I would have put BFG KO2's (size available=275-55-20, like you) on my 20" wheels a while ago, but I don't like that risk, or the rubbing, and I want to avoid doing more or less permanent mods like strut and/or wheel spacers. For now, I'm holding off on...
