    latest LR4 comparison

    Good article... but I personally was only considering off-road capable SUVs, so the only other vehicle on that list that I had considered was the Lexus GX460. This is more along the lines of the SUVs I looked at...

    2011 LR4 Voice Controls

    This is all done in software, I believe. I don't think they had to change out any parts. I want to point out that I had ordered my vehicle prior to them removing the Voice Recognition feature. My order sheet had a line item for this feature. Hence I had a really good case. They have since...

    Snow mode

    How much snow should there be before using the Snow/Gravel mode? Is this mostly for deep snow, or should it be used for slightly snow-packed roads as well? We've had a few snow days and I'm just never sure when I should switch over to Snow/Gravel mode.

    Drivers wiper broken

    I'm sure this is good advice... but I want to add that in my 25 years of driving I have never tightened the nuts on the wiper, never checked to see if it is frozen to the windsheild... just tried to wipe and see if it works. Four cars, four different models, never had a broken wiper. Until the...

    About to make the jump to LR4 from Toyota 4Runner

    Really? I've never owned a Touareg so can't say, but I do find this statement very surprising. What is it that made the Touareg better off-road?

    Question regarding iPod, USB connections

    My husband has an aftermarket Alpine iPod stereo installed in his car. It came with a proprietary USB/iPod cable. I tried using the cable that came with my iPhone but that didn't work. And when I test drove the Kia Borrego (at one point I seriously considered buying this instead of the LR4), it...

    LR4 Metropolis

    I have no idea what is different about the Metropolis, but the name itself is a turn-off. It seems to imply some showy city SUV, where as I want a rugged off-road capable SUV (that's still luxurious, of course!).

    Zermatt silver, a little bluish?

    Isn't there supposed to be a new Siberian Silver coming out? I thought that was supposed to be the slightly "blue-ish" one since it is replacing Izmir Blue.

    Multitude of problems

    I've had the TPMS fault message twice. Both times, it turned off within 10 miles of driving and one or two starts. The first time it happened, I made an appointment to have it looked at. Of course, the said they couldn't reproduce the problem since the light had gone off. Last Friday, it...

    iPhone with iOS4 & Pandora work fine (so far)!

    I figured out how to make Pandora work. Basically, you need to get your iPod to finish playing songs (not paused) and then Pandora works -- at least it did for my iPhone 3GS with OS 4.2.1. I did this by creating a Playlist called "Pandora", and I only put one mp3 track in that Playlist which...

    Possible to upgrade me HSE basic 240 watt HK stereo to l7 one at dealer?

    I didn't realize that the backup camera guidelines are only available with the surround cameras. I love that feature. OK, call me a woman driver.... but I've never been good backing up and gauging the size of the car and those are a great help. I haven't used the other surround cameras too...

    iPhone with iOS4 & Pandora work fine (so far)!

    I've tried plugging in my iPhone via the USB port and it does absolutely nothing. Doesn't even charge the iPhone. If you don't use the iPod cable, I believe the only other option is to use the Aux cable with your iPhone.

    iPhone with iOS4 & Pandora work fine (so far)!

    Your post prompted me to try Pandora again during our ski trip (my husband was driving so it made it easier to play around with it). I have the iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.2. First try -- worked no problem. Second try - had to try various combinations of unplugging/replugging the cable, toggling...

    n00b here with new LR4 brought by Santa - 4 issues:

    The iPod cable was included in 2010 LR4, but it is not included with the 2011.

    Drivers wiper broken

    well well well... this is the bulletin that I had asked my dealer to fix but they said my VIN is not showing up in their database to fix. This kind of pisses me off since I actually took it in. I guess a call to Land Rover customer service is in order! My husband drove to a near by town to a...

    Drivers wiper broken

    I'm up at a ski resort (first trip with my LR4) and my drivers side windshield wiper is broken! I went out last night, started the car, got out to brush snow. As I was brushing the passenger side, the passenger wiper wiped once, but not the driver one. Not sure what triggered that, because I did...

    LR4 purchase wait time

    I ordered my 2011 LR4 mid/late June. My car went into production in mid August and I took delivery in early October. I don't know if mine took longer because I ordered when the 2011 were not yet in production. I believe each dealership gets a certain allotment of orders, so it'll depend on...

    Windshield issues

    I agree. I can always see the lines (day or night) if I try and look at it. It doesn't bother me though. I haven't needed this feature yet so far, but I'm in Colorado so I know I will need it and love it!

    2011 LR4 HSE wind Petersen's 4x4 of the year

    I have no idea what "torqued to 13lbs ft" means (maybe my husband would know - he's way smarter than me). I was thinking more along the lines of clicking some buttons on my NAV to see if I can get a version number or something. Or if there was a feature added to NAV, I can see if I have it.

    2011 LR4 HSE wind Petersen's 4x4 of the year

    I just had my car at the dealer and they said that my car does not qualify for these updates. I took delivery of my 2011 LR4 in October, but the VIN is within the ranges shown. They claim that my car is not shown as "eligible in DDW", which is some database that Land Rover keeps track of. He...

    iPhone with iOS4 & Pandora work fine (so far)!

    Just updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 and Pandora streaming still doesn't work. I'd be interested to know if anyone has found a solution to this problem (other than going back to iOS 4.0).

    Snow flake symbol next to outdoor temp reading in display panel

    I love the heated steering wheel too, but I wish it was warmer. The temperature on mine doesn't feel consistent -- warmer on some spots, less warm in others. I wish it had a dial to control the temperature on the steering wheel, or at least 3 heat positions, like the seat warmers.

    LR4 Maintenence

    I've had my 2011 LR4 for 1.5 months and 400 miles. So far I've had: Blue screen on back-up camera (only happened once) HD Radio hiss/studder problem (happened this morning) Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault (got a message on my Info panel while driving, but it cleared itself during a...
