Hey all, looks like my LR4 is running into some of the expected SDV6 oil leak issues. I've had spotting on the driveway, from the passenger side of the skid plate. Took it to the dealer and they said the vacuum pump is leaking and upon further inspection the upper timing cover is leaking as... -

Aftermarket rear seat entertainment system
So I'm looking for a solution here and I realize there are some threads on this, but they're not really current and I would imagine the products in this area change often. So I deferred the $2.5k RSES as the price was high and I thought we could just use our iPads. As it turns out, the family... -

2014 LR4: Metal in brake pad causes squeal
All, I don't think I ever shared this problem, but back in October I noticed my LR4 would make a noise some of the times when driving slowly (8-25 mph) and mostly during or after a left hand turn. The noise was a rotational metal-sounding squeal. This noise would occur after ~20 minutes of... -

Bare minimum recovery gear
*searched but couldn't find a recent thread on this topic* As my LR4 order (with HD package) is about to go through and I hopefully receive the vehicle in the late summer I've shifted my thoughts to taking the LR4 off-road in my area. I'm in West San Jose so it looks like Hollister is the... -

What kind of price negotiation to use when ordering a 2014 LR4?
I know some of you have done this, and I am "in the queue" with my local dealer to put in an order for a 2014 (possibly '15) LR4 when allotments are available.

Frustration with '14 availability
Hi folks, I'm frustrated that it is so difficult to purchase a '14 LR4, has it been this way for previous releases as well? I'm in the bay area of California, and there are zero in the area (one in LA and one in Vegas). I can't believe that as soon as I found the right vehicle to purchase (I'd... -

New to LR, want look of LR4 but conflicted about waiting for 2015 Discovery
