    stainless steel brake lines

    @ttforcefed Funny enough, I had written a thread about this subject a long time ago: https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/lr4-stainless-steel-brake-lines.23521/ That is the story of the LR3 stoptech brake lines I installed back in 2012-13 (may have been the first, and certainly the first on...

    Rear Tire Carrier - Any Regrets in Daily Life?

    Agree with @m_lars Especially issues with corrosion (not-to-mention weight). Perhaps of interest to folks looking at spare wheel stuff arms as well as heavy bumpers - I ran across the "Hyena Overland" company in a recent Mahker (https://mahker.com/ - it is a British company that rebuilds...

    Troubleshooting coolant vacuum fill failure

    Thanks @Rendak Yikes. My vote goes for a rebuild but to state the obvious (my superpower) - you will need to get to what the problem is before ripping anything open. In terms of cost - benefit: I can't tell you what is best for you and your situation. What I can say is that I don't think...

    Diagnostic Trouble Code: B1A85-96 (28)

    Thanks @Rover Range Photo below of my windshield with stickers; unsure if those could case the diffusion. Also unsure if the AFS is functioning now or just locked into the center position due to the DTC.

    Should I be concerned? What is this hose?

    Out of curiosity, on this particular subject, does the gang think that there any interest in a thread about LR4 breather pipes? I ask because I was most surprised to find out while working on my major rebuild project that the transmission, front differential, and transfer case / gearbox all...

    Troubleshooting coolant vacuum fill failure

    Thanks for your note and follow-up @Rendak . Perhaps I lost the plot or am just thick...but what is your conclusion? A loose lower radiator hose would not drain coolant into your Engine sump.....so I am trying to connect that hose with your oil pan.

    Diagnostic Trouble Code: B1A85-96 (28)

    Thanks @Rover Range - No and Yes. I don’t notice anything in particular regarding "ambient light" but I don’t really know what this sensor does. Something worth noting, however, is that I have another consistent fault which may be related: "HCMB—Headlamp. U0415-00. Invalid data received from...
