I'm a sucker for autos that are notorious for the need of assisted repair. I was curious if anyone knows of an OBDII system that works well for both LR4 and MINI Cooper/BMW. Thanks in advance -

Hi, Problem: I'm getting the "Low Battery Pleas start engine" warning. I'm getting it within seconds of just opening a door. It started while I was vacuuming out the car and had all 4 doors open for an hour or so. No lights were on, so I thought that was weird. What I have tried / done: -... -

New rear hatch shocks? Preferably better than OEM?
Any better than stock rear hatch shocks? I'm sick of smashing my skull into the hatch as it slowly creeps down after opening it in the colder months. I'm already on borrowed neurons. I trust this forums opinion better than LR. Cheers Mike -

Water in the cabin headliner. 2016 LR4

I was out using my telescope in the mountains and needed to use the 12v accessory plug located in the rear of the truck near the tailgate after my portable power supply died. The 12v plug would only stay powered for 3 minutes at a time before the truck shut it off. Is there a way to keep this... -

Hi, My LR4 just rolled over 50k (out of warranty) I am literally at 50,007 on the odometer. My car has been giving me a warning over the last three days "Low Battery Warning: Star Engine". Does land rover have covert code to force them to break at exactly 50,001k? o_O Being serious now, I... -

30k miles of annoying brake issues
I have a 2016 LR4. I love it except for one super annoying issue. Whenever I stop and start driving after parking, or have parked overnight my rear brakes squeal like crazy (not when in use) driving under 20mph. This started around 5k. Which leads to me having to stop pull on the emergency... -
