Help with Third Row Seatbelt Replacement
I never received a reply and had been unable to find much explanation online. But I pushed forward and recently replaced the 3rd row seatbelt. Now I'm sorry I didn't document the procedure with photographs or video. I had been worried about disturbing the airbag behind the upper trim. I ended... -
LR3 Add CarPlay without removing radio
@Nelz99 yes, the included backup camera implementation is fantastic. When the vehicle is in reverse, any streaming audio pauses and the entire screen instantly shows the camera image full frame. The image quality is much better than the (wireless) Garmin BC-30 I had been using for years... -
Help with Third Row Seatbelt Replacement
My puppy chewed one of the seatbelts on the driver’s side of the third row seat of my 2007 LR3 HSE. I purchased a replacement seatbelt on eBay. After a quick look, I’m not seeing how to access the bolt that goes into the floor. Also, the seatbelt retracts through a slot in the back upper trim... -
LR3 Add CarPlay without removing radio
FYI, a different approach. Today I installed a Road Top 7” Touchscreen Monitor with integrated wireless CarPlay, microphone for hands free phone calls, and backup camera. Super easy to install, it just adds to the system you have. You can output audio via integrated FM transmitter or by wire to... -

Re British Concepts BT unit, the steering wheel buttons for volume and track control don’t work, is that true? -
Catalytic Converter Heat Shield Loose and Vibrating
Thanks, Catman. I spent a little more time with the rattling noise this afternoon. I don't think it's coming from this cover after all. It sounds like a tinny, light metal rattling, which is pronounced with acceleration then subsides. The sound appears to be coming from underneath the floor... -
Catalytic Converter Heat Shield Loose and Vibrating
Hi everyone. Just following up to this thread. I have not pursued a remedy yet but I'm still being plagued by a vibration sound seeming to come from under the passenger floor. It commences at 20 to 30 MPH and continues at highway speed and it only occurs with throttle-- let your foot off the gas... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Hi, uoflcardfan. Yes, if you've worn out the Unlock button on your key fob, it's probably a good idea to change the key fob unlock mode away from Single-point entry, ha-ha. I don't know about changing the cover for the key... Before I bought an entire new key fob, I don't know, I might try... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Yes, cmb6s, it seems like some of these "features" are hobbled. I have a couple of large German Shepherds and my first thought was to be able to lower the vehicle to access height with my key fob. But as johnsoax points out, what's the point of key fob control when you need to open the car and... -
Catalytic Converter Heat Shield Loose and Vibrating
In the last week I've noticed a new sound. Seems to be coming from underneath the passenger floor area and it sounds like a wind flapping vibration rattle... it starts about 35 MPH goes away, starts again. Coincidentally I had LOF service done about a week ago. I stopped by today and asked... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Update. I played with this a bit and it's not working. When you walk up to the locked vehicle, press the Land Rover button, you hear the rear window hatch release activate and the window moves a little bit but when you attempt to open the hatch, it's stuck and will not open. Only when I press... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Good catch, thanks Houm, I edited my Post #4 above for clarity. By pressing the key fob button the rear glass hatch unlocks and pops open a half inch or so. The exact same experience as if you unlocked the rear hatch glass by the exterior hand grip/switch. The lifting of the window is up to you... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Thanks, Umberto. I was able to reprogram the Land Rover emblem button to unlock the rear glass hatch. Don't know if you need to begin by turning on the ignition, but I did. I put the key in the ignition, turned it to Accessory, immediately removed the key, walked around to the back of the... -
Programming 3rd Button on Key Fob Transmitter
Re-reading the LR3 owner's manual, I learned that the key fob transmitter has a third function button: the Land Rover emblem at the bottom can be programmed to perform different functions. The owner's manual explains how to set it up to act as a panic button, sounding the alarm system... -
installing backup camera from garmin
Hi. I looked at all the costly options for integrating with the existing display. ThinkDima turned me on to the Garmin Nuvi with Backup Camera and I absolutely love it. I spent five minutes "installing" it, including the camera. The camera is powered by the existing 12 volt power port near the... -
Has Anyone Disabled Front Parking Sensors?
I thought the same thing. In my case, rear park sensors only are working correctly. I checked the vehicle's Park Sensor configuration file with my GAP Diagnostic IIDTool BT and what I found was "Park Sensors Disabled." I changed the configuration to Enabled. At that point, the park sensors... -
Has Anyone Disabled Front Parking Sensors?
Thanks I imagine enabling the front park sensors but physically removing the center two sensors would result in a fault! Thanks for the insights, Umberto, and Happy Trails to you! -
Has Anyone Disabled Front Parking Sensors?
Hello, LR4 Folks. I recently acquired a 2007 LR3 HSE with a winch/bumper in front. The rear park sensors work normally but the front sensors seem to be disabled. The bumper covers in middle two front park sensors but the outboard pair seem to be unobstructed. I'm wondering if there's a... -
LR3 tow wiring harness
Astute and helpful insights as always, Bruce, thank you. Yes, the tire shop pulled the spare tire down to replace it and when the parking sensor system started working I also imagined this had something to do with the wiring harness or connectors/connections. I will remind the mechanic shop... -

You're one step ahead of me, Chris. Have you already tried the AirEnabler? I guess it's basically like booting up an Airport Express every time you start your car and waiting for your iPhone to join that WiFi network. Yuck. Some people might hot wire the AirEnabler to remain powered 24/7... -
LR3 tow wiring harness
You're absolutely correct, bbyer. I do have a problem! I've had my LR3 for two months now and from the day it arrived it has had a park sensor fault. Every time you put it in reverse, the alarm goes off and the dash light blinks. And this is before adding the hitch or a bike rack. With... -

I believe the thread link below is the exhaustive BT4 kit reference and your answer may lie there. http://bit.ly/1wqwyDN I may be mistaken but a key question regarding the compatibility of the Wiggins kit is which pairing code your vehicle uses to sync to BT... it needs to be 2121, etc. So... -
LR3 tow wiring harness
Which connection disables the rear park sensors? I've recently purchased the LR4 hitch and tow wiring harness to add to my LR3 vehicle. I'm going to use the receiver hitch mostly for carrying bicycles on my Küat NV rack. The owner's manual states (page 153) that the rear park sensors are... -
bluetooth
Hi, TD. Couple questions about your goals. Adding Bluetooth might allow you to pair your iPhone for handsfree telephone calls but possibly not music streaming, not sure. My '07 LR3 HSE included factory Bluetooth v.3.x but in that era did not include music streaming. Does your vehicle sound... -
3rd Row Seatback Folding Problem: Seatbelt Latch Doesn't Retract
Resolved Wanted to provide info about my fix in case this could help someone else. After work today I had a little more time to look into this issue and it looks like I've resolved it with a 15 inch heavy duty zip tie. Photos below tell the story, but essentially a plastic strap connects the...
