    LR4 Trailer Hitch Service / Rebuild

    Thanks for everyone's great inputs and advice! Unfortunately, things did not go as planned and now I have the attached photo - a broken red gear. You can also see in the other photo how corroded everything is under there - we actually had to clean and paint everything to freshen it up; the...

    Tribe, Following-up with this idea and @jlach993 's thread: I went ahead and completed sound deadening in the rear lower hatch as well as serviced/replaced the hatch assembly and performed the upgrade for a manual / pull opener. There is lots of material of this upgrade online so let me know...

    Rear Tire Carrier - Any Regrets in Daily Life?

    So we are done with the refurbishment for the rear bumper and assembly, rear tire carrier, and re-installation of the rear tire carrier. Photos of that work attached. The point of this post is noting that more steel...means more rust. More rust...means more rust treatment. This is the...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    Dropped fuel tank and then the old components pulled out attached. They were still working properly but I was going to go ahead and replace everything while the fuel tank was down. Unfortunately, I still have to fix an issue with the fuel level measurements; for more, see that thread in...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    So to follow-up from my last post on this (#11) - I am busted for not finding all the threads - answer to my question - Comes to mind but I don't know what that "low pressure sensor" does and even he had great difficulty in understanding what it did (and he replaced it, if I understand...

    Fuel Gauge Reading Off

    Regarding the error / fault: I have an error light (see image 002 attached in previous post) which indicates that the vehicle fuel level is zero (regardless of what is actually in the tank). This error light does not throw DTC codes (via the GAP IID tool) but is persistent and show no fuel...

    Fuel Gauge Reading Off

    So I wanted to follow-up regarding my situation. Photo of my dash with the fuel error I have been having for several months below (i.e. no fuel measured at all and the "Fuel Level Low" warnings). After pulling out and replacing the seal, filter unit, and sender unit (pump assembly with the...

    Door deadening

    Update from the Dynamat install for Door Deadening. Door cards are back on (without sound deadening on the cards for now...still considering this idea from @Jimmy Brooks ). Sounds a little bit better from road noise reduction and you can hear the difference in weight/resonance when closing the...

    Windscreen Vendors ?

    See the thread below - one thing worth noting if you don't get the right windshield will be a couple new DTC codes as well as some issues if you have AFS (and the auto wiper and auto high beam assist functions). My lessons learned - replace with an OEM windshield...

    Dead Main Battery and air bag light/warning?

    Low battery, especially that low, will cause any number of electrical gremlin issues. Just replace the battery, charge it up and run the engine, let it go for a couple days, and see if you continue to have problems. Chances are, all your error messages will go away as the computer resets...

    Best online source form a oem timing chain kit?

    Greetings @Tumbler I have recently rebuilt my engine on a 2010 LR4 (V8 5.0L) - photos below and work is still ongoing. We pulled the engine out (body on) and went all the way down to the oil pan. I mostly (but not entirely) used Atlantic British (OEM or better) parts such as the -...

    Door deadening

    Less intrusive auxillary switches?

    @MellonRover , Great project and thanks for writing up and the photographs. What are you powering with your switches (or what are your plans)? Also, do you have more details on the bulkhead and wiring locations? I don't understand what we are looking at in the photograph at the bottom and...

    Crazy to consider new engine in a 2016 LR4?

    Dear @Rover Range Is that $10K purchase price for the reman, or did you rebuild the engine at your shop and that is cost of the shop labor?

    Increased Performance

    If the engine were the first thing to upgrade, the next would have to be the cooling system. Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any aftermarket upgrades out there, so anything done would be (I think) a one-off, custom job. There are a number of companies out there that do custom radiators...

    Increased Performance

    I think this is still a fun threat and things to think about, even though I recommended caution. Following up with your idea, if one were to through caution to the wind, are a few crazy ideas I have had over the years (and I am sure I am not alone). The first is power-train: the engine. I have...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    Looking for anyone's experience or insight with this fault and this problem - I think we have narrowed it down but am unsure. I am going to look around for a new "Fuel Sensor and Hanger" and we shall try, try again. Are there other things we should be looking for in and around there? @gsxr...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    Lesson Learned: the parts (which I sourced from Atlantic British) do NOT include the "Fuel Sensor and Hanger" which I assumed they had. Attached are photos from the moment we realized that we didn't have this part (and that was likely the source of the problem in the first place) and then...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    After putting everything back together again, we maintained the same issue as before (low fuel warning light), even after filling up the tank and driving around. So there is one thing....and we think we know what it is: Fuel Sender and Hanger Assembly Part Number: LR042974 Supersession(s)...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    This is somewhat related to the thread in - https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/fuel-related-issue-at-start-up.45858/page-3#post-254252 However, this issue seems to be clearly related to the fuel tank system. So, I went ahead an ordered everything to replace the inside of the fuel tank...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 in-tank fuel pump

    Thanks @gsxr ! Great write-up and probably something we all need to think about as the trucks get older. So during my rebuild, we accidentally (unplanned) dropped the fuel tank and got the fuel tank empty warning lamp on our gauge cluster - attached (this is from today but it has been going...

    How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 fuel system low pressure sensor

    Thanks for the thread @gsxr! What was the problem you were trying to solve with replacing this sensor? I have some fuel system issues myself and attempting to narrow things down....
