    Has anyone replaced suspension compressor themself?

    I just picked up a lightly used compressor (LR015303) on eBay for $1.25. Really, the word "compressor" was misspelled in the title so no one saw it or bid on it. Anyway, I really don't need one YET but it makes sense to have a back up since I plan on keeping the truck for the long haul. I was...

    Akebono Ceramics - What's Included?

    Getting ready to order some Akebono Ceramic pads front (EUR1098) and rear (EUR1099). Found the fronts on Amazon for $68 w/free shipping. The rears at Auto Parts Warehouse for $73 w/free shipping. Seems pretty good. For those who have these pads, did they come with all of the hardware such as...

    Consider this when looking for a used LR3

    Taking my 06 SE7 4.0 in for final warranty service tomorrow. Only 43K on the clock but the 4 years runs out end of the month. I bought it in Dec 09 from a LR dealer (non CPO) at 34K miles. I have had zero issues or problems since purchased. It has been a great truck and I plan on keeping it...

    Will I need spacers switching to stock 19" wheels?

    I have an 06 SE V6 with the stock 18" 5 spoke wheels. I am looking at picking up a set of stock 19" HSE 6 spoke wheels (5x120 pattern). Will I need spacers or will the 19's bolt right on? Thanks for any knowledge on this.

    LR3 Body Panels & Exhaust?

    Can anyone confirm if the LR3's stock exhaust is stainless? Also, I came across a listing for a used stock hood and it indicated that it is aluminum? I presume the balance of the sheet metal is galvonized? Just wondering.

    Excellent deal on these genuine LR parts

    Just turned 40,000 mi on my 06 LR3 SE V6 and in anticipation of the first brake service I found several really exceptional prices for OEM parts on eBay so I thought I would share. I have no affiliation with these sellers and all parts came within 3 days directly from LR dealers: Front Rotors...

    How Would You Rate Your LR3's Finish?

    Have been thinking about waxing the LR3 lately and have been impressed overall with how well the finish is holding up (06 SE Zermatt Silver). I have owned numerous makes over the years including Audi, VW, Porsche, Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Toyota, Saab, GM, Ford, Chrysler. Just wondering what...

    Passenger Side Mirror Glass - Any Suggestions?

    I always back the LR3 in the garage way over as to avoid the scrapes and scuffs associated with the family garage. Anyway, with a huge storm rolling in, in my haste I clipped the garage door frame with the passenger side mirror. Errr! Good news is only the mirror glass broke, the mirror...

    How long do you plan on keeping your LR3?

    Last year I set out to find a well kept, low mileage LR3 and ended up with a nice 06 SE7 with 33K on the clock and a year left on the factory warranty. My intent was to find what is for me the ideal non commuting vehicle and keep it for the long haul. Plus, it had to be something that I could...

    Which brakes wear faster - front or rear?

    Recently bought an 06 SE with 34K. The brakes feel great, no issues. Being proactive, I would like to pick up pads, rotors, sensors, etc. so I have them when needed. I find very reasonable deals on these oem parts online. I am wondering if I should expect to be replacing the fronts or the...

    Neglected Alloy Wheels

    Normally I'm thinking about how to get my new, pre-owned LR3 dirty, but... it looks like the prior owner neglected the alloy wheels a bit. There is some brake dust "fused" on to the wheels in some spots. I started with the basics; Maguire's, Mothers, etc. spray on and rinse off, not even...

    Anyone have to replace exhaust system yet?

    Just wondering if anyone has needed to replace any or all of the exhaust system yet on their LR3? If so, year and miles. Is it a stainless steel system?

    Will I need a new suspension air compressor eventually?

    Just bought a 2006 LR3 SE 4.0L with 34K miles. Great truck and I plan on keeping it for quite some time. This forum is a great resource for maintenance issues, DIY, etc. I understand the suspension compressors do go out and are also subject to damage. Although I don't need it now I have an...
