    2010 Rear Center Seat Stowing

    2012 Rear Center Seat Stowing Howdy, I'm trying to stow my rear center seat. I'm 99% certain I know how it works (I've had them down before and I reread the manual), but I can't get the thing down. 1. Use the latch on the top of the seat to recline the backrest forward; easy and works...

    Locking Glove Box

    Am I missing something - can you lock the glove box? Is it electronic or part of valet mode or something else? Unless I totally overlooked it, I put something in there that really should have been locked, but I didn't see a lock?

    Heater System

    OK, for the cabin heating, I have what appears to be weird stuff happening, but it could be normal and I just don't get how it works. When heating the cabin: - If I press the timed recirculate button, often (always?) the rear defrost button illuminates. Normal? - If I press recirculate...

    Phone and Radio Mute Question

    I was just reading the stereo speaker topic and thought of something: Twice (maybe thrice?) in relatively successive drives, I had phone calls on blue tooth during which the stereo did NOT automatically mute itself, so I was talking over the music. It happend a few times repeatedly, and...

    IPod question

    So, due to my dad's good luck in winning an IPod and his inability to learn something new, I now own a 16-gig Ipod. Question: When plugging an Ipod into the LR4 (2012 model if it matters), can you control everything from the dashboard (volume, song selection, skip track, change albums, etc)...

    LR4 Spare Tire - Full vs. Toy Size

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but: - Doesn't the HD LR4 have a full-sized spare tire? - My non-HD has the toy sized spare. - The full-sized spare tire doesnt' fit into the non-HD spare wheel well? - Or does the full-size spare fit but they just give you the toy size in the non-HD model? I...

    Why no chains on rear wheels?

    OK, I have a pregnant wife due any day and a big ice storm headed my way. Therefore I'm buying some snow chains today. Does anyone know why the manual says specifically no chains on the rear wheels? I'm not buying big chains, rather the SCC Z-Chain SV207. It's not too bulky, so I'm...

    Simple Questions

    A few simple ones for you guys: - When you vehicle is turned OFF, does the garage opener on the mirror work? Mine doesn't. - When the vehicle is running and you get out, can you lock the doors with the button or remote? I can't, it just beeps at me. - I know I can find this in the...

    Headlight Aim

    Does anyone have a shop manual or is it available online somewhere? One of my headlights is distractingly high and I'd like to adjust it, but I need some intructions on which screws raise/lower aim and which direction does what. For all of my motorcycles I've always purchased a shop...

    2012 LR4 Trunk Question

    OK, on the plastic sides of the trunk/third row seating area there are a number of cutouts/slots: - There are two recesses to mount the cargo cover mechanism, one just behind second row and another further back, maybe behind where third row would be if I recall. - There are two slots to...

    Fuel Door Lock on LR4 2012 HSE

    Howdy, Does your fuel door lock when your doors are locked? The manual indicates it does and I was reading some OLD posts for older models which indicated that they didn't have this feature, so I checked mine this AM. Despite manual indicating "gas door can only be opened if doors are...

    "Won't let you harm" question

    There are a plethora of rules on the various settings in the truck (height, 4wd, HDC, etc) regarding speeds at which you can adjust settings. The salesperson told me "the vehicle will not let you damage it if you press something when you shouldn't." In other words, try to turn on HDC at 70...

    4WD Low Settings Questions

    Reading the manual last night and have questions on Low settings: - Forget asking about what I read about engaging Low on the fly; seems like I would permanently destroy the gears even though it sounded straight forward; put in neutral, no gas, engage Low. - When in low, do you HAVE to...

    Hill Descent Control Questions

    I was reading the manual last night and came upon some HDC info that I wonder if anyone can comment on. - It seems like you can engage HDC at speeds of up to 50 MPH (as I recall); what speed will HDC maintain at that engagement speed - 50? - You can adjust the speed control for HDC (as I...

    Memory Seats

    Nothing is ABSOLUTE, but dealer told me "no way to install" memory seats after the fact. The memory seats also include memory mirrors and steering wheel and he said only way to get it is factory installed. Same with heated seats. Again, nothing is absolute, but it sounds like half the car...

    parking assist

    When you back out of a parking spot and put your car in drive, does the parking assit menu stay upmon your screen for a f ew seconds? There is nohing in the manual about this but it makes sense since it could be helpful in, say a parking garage, to help you clear columns and other cars AFTER...

    Confused

    The more I read and learn, the more confused I become: - Is the LR4 a 4WD or AWD vehicle? - Is all of the traction control accomplished via putting the breaks on a slipping wheel?

    Memory Seats

    Has anyone ever installed memory seats on a Base upgraded HSE? The one that I'm considering doesnt have driver seat memory, which is annoying since both wife and I will drive. Is the car already wired and just missing the buttons, or is there something more to it?
