    Cross Bars for LR3 Roof

    I meant, that some very specific accessories likes a yakima kayak rack for example might not accept the wider LR cross bars. Using Yakima (or Thule) gives you the possibility to mount many different racks for kayak, snowboards, bikes, ... They may not mount well on the LR3 factory cross bars.

    LR3 check engine ligth

    Maybe you should get a OBDII dongle. It is pretty cheap, and on your phone/tablet you can read the error codes. It will tell you why the engine light is on.
