    Lr3 sold in parts

    shoot there's ones on there for $99 now. I bought a cheap bearing from a supplier out of Michigan a few years ago and it lasted me a year.. maybe. If you are doing the labor yourself it might be worth the gamble otherwise OEM is likely the best bet. That being said, I may try one of the...

    Suspension Lowering Issues

    For the FOB to work the flashers must be on and the doors closed. I wonder if you might have a bad door switch.

    Wheel Bearing??

    Bearing came today looked and felt perfect for what that is worth. Old bearing did have lateral play and had quite a bit of drag and rough spots compared to the new one. Here is a quick write up while it is somewhat fresh in my memory. LR calls for special tools for the r/r I didn't have or...

    Wheel Bearing??

    I understand the sentiment but I won't lose any sleep over it. I'm interested to see what type of bearing they put in there. OEM bearings come from all over anyway.

    Wheel Bearing??

    If you have a locker, there was a tsb on the software for the locker motor. Your groan could be something as simple at tires. You could try rotating them and see if the sound moves.

    Wheel Bearing??

    most cars get a groan at highway speeds which can also be activated at by swerving at around 35MPH. As you load the corner with the bad bearing you will get a louder groan. I have no groan at all but there definitely is play and that wheel shimmys when braking at times. I ordered a new...

    Wheel Bearing??

    Been getting a vibration during braking occasionally and some wandering on uneven pavement. I lifted the front up and I can move the driver's side wheel in and out a little with my hands at the 12 and 6 o clock positions. So I'm thinking ball joint went bad again right? except there is...

    How to "de-funk" damp carpets?

    Petsmart sells a product called simple solution it has ensymes that eat up odor causing bacteria. It works great on pet smells but I have also used it with success on musty smell. It has an unobtrusive smell too. Might be worth checking out.

    Brake Pad Choices?

    It depends on if Pep boys lives up the warranty claim. I was told to just bring in the old set and they would swap them for new. If that is true then every couple of years you will save $130.

    Brake Pad Choices?

    Pep boys platinum are around $50 for the rear set and have a lifetime replacement. I burned through EBC's in a year on the rear and switch to the PB's mainly because it was Sunday and they stocked them. The pads feel just as good if not better than ebc's and have been very quiet. Dust is good...

    loud noise

    Sounds like it was your fan clutch engaging/ staying engaged. Mine has done it a couple of times too. Basically you get a whooshing roar in low gears and loss of power. My guess it that it is working as designed but if it seems to be happening frequently for extended periods, you may need a...

    Trade up to an 09 HSE Lux or wait for LR4?

    I think you'll be ahead by just keeping the 06. Wait a few years for the LR4 you'll get more HP and the upgraded interior. Any accessories you buy should still transfer over for the most part. By 2013 the Lr4's should be under 30K maybe sooner if fuel prices continue to spike.

    Steering play?

    If bushings and balljoints are fine then it would be down to inner and outer tie rod ends. I have notice my steering feel is ultra sensitive to tire pressure as well.

    HSE nav question.

    It kind of dims with the gauge light adjustment. There are brightness settings in the nav as well that may be cranked all the way up.

    Has anybody ever bought anything from www.roverpartswest.com?

    My guess is that it is dealership owned site. Try calling during regular business hours. Looks similar to genuinevwaudiparts.com and that site is run by mirimar audi dealership. You could generate a one time use credit card to be safe.

    Brake pads

    Is there a screw in between one of the lug nuts...I can't remember. If not and you are replacing the rotor anyway may need some strategic hammer taps on the edge of the rotor.
