    Spare Tire Question with Nitto G2s

    I too changed out the crappy P Scorpion tires that came on mine at the end of 2018 to the G2's (5 of them). I had the full size spare so knew for tire longevity, the 5-tire rotation was the way to go. So far these tires have served me well for my particular driving needs. To answer your...

    Another Defender hint?

    Just received a message from the Goodwood Motorsport app with a notification that the Defender Prototype will be running up the hill climb any minute! Anybody going to be in attendance today for some more photos? My tickets are for tomorrow.

    Heavy duty package or not?

    From my understanding, the Silver Editions came out mid way through the 2016 model year and are designated as 2016.5's. Being this was the last year of LR4 production, Land Rover basically were raiding their parts bin and included items that make up this package to get rid of excess inventory in...

    Phone Mount For LR4?

    I get you requested recommendations for the phone mount for the vents. However, if you decide to consider the CD mount, I have been using this one. Secure fit and holds my Pixel 2XL perfectly in both a horizontal or vertical orientation. Even when off-roading with a lot of rocking and bouncing...

    Snow Chains

    In my personal experience, and in 25+ years driving the route to Big Bear (both highway 330 and 18), when there is a chain check and when stopped by the CHP, I have almost always been asked if I'm carry chains. Sometimes a simple Yes will get me through, but there have been times when they ask...

    Will our LR4's be desirable in 10 - 15 years, or are they just another modern day LR?

    I almost missed the LR4 party. I had reluctantly come to the realization after a ski trip to the mountains in March 2016, that my family had outgrown my beloved FJ Cruiser. I began the search, and after much test driving and researching various brands, realized the LR4 ticked off all the boxes...

    Roof Box Question - LR4

    My 2016 didn't come with any rails either. I only ended up buying the short rails (actually preferred the look of them over the long rails), cross bars and the Land Rover badged ski rack which happens to be a Thule product. I couldn't (and didn't want to) reuse my old set as they were well past...

    Looking to Buy 2016 LR4 Needed some help

    Insightful post. Of course I have the running boards on my 2016 as well. They do come in handy for my wife and mother that like to use the side steps (yes, they even use it when I drop the LR4 to access height). But I really don't care for the look as much as sliders. Maybe one day I'll change...

    Questions About 20’s

    Yes, Land Rover specific wheels. I just checked on mine and do not have the rubber at the spot you identified. Here's the page from the 2016 brochure showing the different 20" wheels available.

    Questions About 20’s

    I had the same tires installed just 2 weeks ago. Mine are mounted on the style 511 wheels with no rubbing at full lock in either direction. I wonder if the wheel offset of the 511 and 510's are identical? If not, maybe that's the issue? My LR4 is a 2016.

    Pirelli Scorpion Zero

    Pulled off the Pirelli Scorpion tires last week. I just turned 19k miles on my 2016 with them. Other than the speed at which they wore out, they weren't too bad. All 4 were at the wear bars so definitely not getting another winter out of them. Put on the Nito Terra Grappler G2's in 265/50-20. I...

    Easy way to spot HD package on '14 - '16 LR4, but how about other years/models

    Yes. Dependent on the drive mode you are in, and the wheel slippage and terrain you encounter, the active rear locking differential along with the center, may switch back and forth to being engaged or disengaged. In the right conditions, they may alternate or stay the same color; open (green)...

    Easy way to spot HD package on '14 - '16 LR4, but how about other years/models

    That's really odd. I assumed for the 14-16's, a vehicle to be designated to have the HD Package had to contain low range, rear locker and full size spare. Otherwise how could it be the HD Package? Do you still have the window sticker? How much did you pay for the package alone? I'd be...

    Now I know where the Land Rover / Range Rover confusion comes from

    I use an analogy when people refer to my LR4 as a Range Rover to illustrate the relationship. Range Rover is to Land Rover as a 7 Series is to BMW. Seems that sets off the light bulb for most...

    2016 LR4 - Best Cabin Replacement Filter

    And more frequently changed dependent on how often you take your vehicle off road and driving conditions. We had just experienced the nasty Thomas Fire where I live and ash was spewing for weeks all over the place. When the air quality improved, I was sure to change cabin and engine filters on...

    2016 LR4 - Best Cabin Replacement Filter

    That's the one I bought earlier this year. Description reads: Mann-Filter CUK 2747 Cabin Filter With Activated Charcoal for select Land Rover models Yes, a very simple replacement and a nice way of saving a few $'s. The dealer markup on cabin filters regardless of vehicle manufacturer is...

    I'd like to take one of those hitches off your hands. I'm in So CA and if you do make the trip out here in Feb, I could meet up with you. What are you asking for the hitches?

    Voltmeter / USB charge port install

    Very clean, and who doesn't need another gizmo in the cockpit relaying voltage? I too would be interested in any part numbers of buy items, along with any additional photos and instructions for this mod.

    Two LR4 Questions (Windshield & USB)

    Coincidentally, I remember seeing an article just this morning about a glass plant based outside of Dayton, OH that is Chinese owned and are dealing with a culture clash with the American workforce. It looks like your Fuyao glass came out of that factory. If they do indeed produce a quality...

    Showoff Your LR4

    A few friends and I spent Saturday at the Rowher Flat OHV area outside of Santa Clarita, CA. I've had my LR4 out in the desert and in the snow this past year and have been impressed thus far with its abilities. But my day out on these trails really blew me away with how capable this truck is...

    Found an LR4, a couple pre-purchase questions...

    Agreed! I'm loving my 2016 with HD. Never drove a V8 version and don't want to...so I don't have any second thoughts! And early reply about altitude, having driven many NA motors up to 7,000 feet, and feeling the definite loss of power, I can honestly say I didn't experience that at all when...
