2016 HSE, wet floormats, and can't find the drain ends!
Yea sorry meant rear wheel arch liners. In both my LRs the rear arch liner was a little loose at the top or the arch. I thought they just drooped with age but then realized it was because my indy was pulling them down to access those rear drains. I posted not too long ago the technical... -

2016 HSE, wet floormats, and can't find the drain ends!
yea standard issue on all LRs. The front drains are in the air intake behind the foam insulation. I would take mine to a gas station to shoot a little compressed air in it and now use one of those $30 battery powered air compressor devices. Works perfectly. Remember to open the sunroof slight... -

Loosing a little bit of coolant
it sounds like the thermostat leaking. I had similar on my 2016 after replacing the cross overs, water pump...and a pinhole leak in the radiator. it's a slow leak as the valve isn't always open. not terribly hard to replace yourself if you have hose clamps. -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
yea agree. my indy also said driving it will help dry it out because the exhaust heats up the underside. ive used the desiccant bags as well. -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
where do you blow the compressed air from, the top or bottom? I couldn't ever get enough pressure from the top so always had to go from the bottom and blow out the top. And where do you access the rear drains to blow them out ? -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
Ok so I conquered the driver side drain. Far easier than I thought. They must have changed the driver side drain position in the LR4 vs the LR3...because it's not behind the wheel arch liner like the technical bulletin states. It's in fender intake vent, just like the passenger side. You use the... -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
Yea my experiment going in from the top drain on the driver side is a 100% fail. I just ended up dumping more water in the floorboard testing it. Im going to have to take off the wheel arch liner to get at it and blow up from the bottom, like you do on the passenger side. -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
Yea parked under a tree that has little seeds which are perfectly round and fit exactly in the drain holes, and at an angle with front passenger sider as the low point. If im religious about getting them blown out every winter before the California winter storms roll through, im usually ok. If a... -

Drivers Side Floorboard Wet
Hey there - yea standard issue on all LRs. I constantly am cleaning out my drains before storms come through in California. So on a 2016 I would not expect the grommets or tubing has disintegrated, so it's 99% a clogged drain on the driver side front drain. If its wet on the passenger side... -

Overheating issue! LR4 2016 SCV6
Hmm. Was the cross over pipes and thermostat already replaced? Any signs of those leaking (yet)? One random thought would be if the prior owner replaced the thermostat before selling and didn't properly bleed the system. I had trouble getting the air bubbles out of mine. Silly question but do... -

Any DIY tips out there on replacing a 2016 LR4 SCV6 Thermostat Housing?
It worked itself out. I let it sit for a while with the cap off and then by the time I drove it to the shop to get it looked at the heat was working. appreciate all the help. -

Any DIY tips out there on replacing a 2016 LR4 SCV6 Thermostat Housing?
Still having a difficult time getting the system bled. I've tried a couple times and the coolant is rising when I increase the throttle to 2k or 3.5k (and no heat), so I think that means an airlock. It drops back down immediately when I turn the car off. I followed the instructions incorrectly... -

Any DIY tips out there on replacing a 2016 LR4 SCV6 Thermostat Housing?
@txfromwi appreciate the video and info. very helpful. I just finished this job today. it wasn't hard, it was just tight space and crappy hose clips that don't lock open. Hose clamp pliers a must. I was able to get the coupling removed with some aggressive persuasion. I asked a mechanic at the... -

2016 LR4: Parking Brake Fault Light (When EPB Not Engaged)
yea I had the same issues on my 2009. another lovely quirk of land rovers...but luckily it doesn't rain much in California. I always try to blow the drains out before it does. -

2016 LR4: Parking Brake Fault Light (When EPB Not Engaged)
Hi - I started getting a parking brake fault message today but the brake is not on and the car runs fine. When the fault is not flashing the brake engages and disengages fine. When it's flashing the brake won't engage but the car can start and run fine. Ive seen posts of faults with the actual... -

Engine code P0089 "fuel pressure regulator performance"
Hey guys - I had this code on my 2016 LR4 for months and drove me nuts. The dealer and my indy couldn't figure out if it was the sensor or the low pressure fuel pump in the tank. The dealer replaced the sensor when I got the fuel flange but that didn't solve it. My indy tried updating the... -

The Quest for A Durable Front Crossover Pipe
ick. how long did you replace pipes last? I just had mine replaced at 85k miles and was hoping that was the last of it. I thought of doing myself but removing the SC seemed like you need a hoist. -

If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
ping me if u guys need more info or when you get into it and I can walk you through it. as I said, would have taken 1-2hrs tops with some proper documentations. -

If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
that sensor I dont exactly know, but yes its in that vicinity (and I think fairly easy to replace). the dealer replaced that when they did the fuel flange recall, but that didnt help the situation. its in the workshop manual and I can look it up if you need. for the pump I got the VDO. I think... -

If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
so the workshop manual and some other videos I saw said to remove that back behind the spare tire (and one mentioned they needed to remove the spare to get to it). I could never find it (and didnt enjoy having my head under the rear axle) so I removed them at the tank side instead. much easier... -

I thought there was an aftermarket and/or updated version already out there that was single piece vs the laser welded plastic. At least thats what I thought my indy said. -

and its this lower hose assembly right? https://www.roverparts.com/belts-hoses/radiator-hoses/LR050855G/ is there any benefit in replacing that entire hose or did you just use the adapter and toss the rest? -

thanks so much @txfromwi and @djkaosone! I love your videos @txfromwi. Next level detail and we need more of that in the LR world. I have an older 911 and the Porsche forums have DIYs on virtually anything you would ever want to do. I work on the LR less because it's a crap shoot every time I...
