    Lower Tailgate Moulding crooked on many LR3's

    Try autocheck.com... MUCH more accurate and detailed than Carfax... When looking for a vehicle for my son, the Carfax was clean... the Autocheck report showed two accidents including frame damage...

    who has the most miles

    I got just under 200,000 miles on my 2005 before trading it in. Never had a single mechanical issue. It ran great and still got up to 21 mpg on the highway at times... The only reason I traded it in was I wanted a newer one...

    Back Driver Side Interior Door Handle Issue...

    My back door will only open when you pull the lock along with the door handle. The handle alone won't open it. It will open, but it takes both hands to get out of the back seat. Anybody had this issue and can offer a solution?

    Cracked Dash

    Don't hold your breath... I ended up buying a really nice dash cover, not one of those cheap looking carpet ones. I've gotten lots of compliments on it and the interior stays cooler on hot days...

    Dash Cracks, Now You See Them, Now You Don't

    I have that exact dash cover and I get lots of compliments on it. It doesn't look cheap and cheesy like the velour or carpet dash covers...

    Nav and Radio Question

    I had an issue with my NAV computer, clock and tripometer resetting... Turned out it was nothing more than a loose negative battery cable... I would double-check that...

    Car wash on rails or 100% hand wash only?

    Same here... never an issue... I prefer to wash by hand, but with our ongoing drought, it is against the law to wash your truck in your driveway...

    LR3 Hesitation during take offs

    Couple of other things I tried with my 2005 when I had it... Disconnect the battery (both terminals) then clip the + and - cables (NOT THE BATTERY TERMINALS) together for about 10 minutes. This supposedly will reset your computer and driving habits. This actually worked for me... The other is...

    Reverse Mirror Dip

    I'm in the US... Mine had it... it was a wheel on the lower side of the vertical of the seat. I even had to have LR Austin replace the plastic wheel because it was broken during a repair...

    06 LR3 auxiliary?

    Never ran into that on ANY LR3... Not saying you are wrong, but look again. It should be just to the left the 12v supply...

    Cheapest way to replace lost key fob?

    Been there done that on my last LR3... you have to pay the piper. My local LR Dealer felt so bad about the cost, they waived the local programming charge... Mine wore through and quit working. That being said, you can go on eBay and buy one of these for less than $10: Amazon.com: lr3 key...

    who has the most miles

    I needed everything replaced... brakes, control arm bushings, tires (all four)... It was more than just front... just mainly up front. That being said, it wasn't that anything went wrong, just wore out...

    who has the most miles

    I had just under 200,000 miles on my 2005 when I traded it last October. Never had to replace anything but the compressor. The engine still ran great and I got 20 mpg coming back from Colorado to Texas a year and a half back. It was finally time to work on that front end, and since the car had...

    Homelink programming question...

    I have a Chamberlain GDO and mine was previously programmed to another device... You need to find the learn button ON the GDO. For mine I had to take the light cover off. Hit that button, then go to your car and hold down the Homelink button you want to assign it to. When the garage door...

    advice for prospective LR3 owner

    CarFAX is OK, but Autocheck is much more in depth. I almost purchased a car for my 17 year old with a clean CarFAX earlier this year. I ran it on Autocheck and it showed the car had been wrecked and had frame damage...

    Key fobs / keyless entry not working after water intrusion and soaking wet floor mats

    The leak could also be in the drain tube on the passenger side. Mine rotted on my last LR3 and it had to be replaced. It would pour water onto my passenger side floorboard during heavy rains. Think $350...

    Some key fob help...

    Yeah... that was a pain... Turns out there was a kink in the remote wire that runs along the passenger side... So I paid $400 for a new remote when all that was needed was $80 worth of labor... In fairness to LR Austin, they waved the fee to fix that because they think the remote is...

    whats your favorite exterior color for LR3?

    Black and white are always no-brainers... Mine is buckingham blue... and I love that rimini red shade they had on the 05's...

    Some key fob help...

    I resoldered and reassembled again and now the truck starts, but I still have no remote functions... this just isn't right... Told the wife I will be dropping just under $400 to Land Rover of Austin tomorrow so I can operate my doors... she isn't happy about it and I don't blame her... Changed...
