    Firestone Air Strut Leak

    I had my passenger front air strut replaced at the dealer about 6 years ago. I always thought it was an OEM air strut until i diagnosed it the other day and found out that it’s a firestone air strut? Since when does firestone make air struts for our trucks? I did some research online and they...

    0W-30 Oil for 2011 V8?

    Well that would work as well, but i’d still prefer the 0W-30 since the 0W would flow better during a cold start when most wear happens. 0W-30 and 5W-30 should be the same viscosity when engine is up to temp. I’m not 100% sure so please correct me if i’m wrong....

    Your experience about LR4 V8 5.0

    I recall going up an incline where my foot was almost down to the floor on the gas. The engine raced up and the tranny downshifted and it gained speed so slowly. It was horrible. I felt bad for the engine with that amount of weight LOL. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Your experience about LR4 V8 5.0

    Drove the V6 and it was severely underpowered and sounded horrible in my opinion. I was thinking about upgrading to a 2016 a few years back. I have a 2011 V8 and i’m so lucky to have one. It’s the preferred engine to have for these trucks. Solid and reliable once those above mentioned services...

    Intake Valve Cleaning

    Hey everyone, i have a few questions i’d like to ask you all in regards to the valves on our DI engines. I’m not experiencing any issues with the motor, but i know they’re prone to carbon build up on top of the valves. I just want to do some preventative maintenance as the truck has 89k miles...

    Transmission issues

    Low alternator output and/or a weak battery could cause a dip in voltage from a sensor in the tranny. When my alternator went out i had a transmission fault. Then as it got worse later in the week i got other faults as well. Disconnect your negative cable from your car for an hour and then...

    LR4 Rear Tailgate Actuator

    So in the replacement video the actuator actually makes the sound when it tries to unlock. On my rig there is no sound which makes me think its an electrical issue. Once i cycle the engine button on and off and try to unlock the trunk it then works perfectly with no struggle. Do you guys think...

    Air Suspension

    It was mentioned here on the forum a while ago as to what that unplugged harness actually was. The jist of it is that the rovers were built in England and sometimes spent weeks/months getting to the dealerships here in the US. That harness was plugged into something pre delivery in order to not...
