    Dead mouse inside my fan motor blower

    I have a dead mouse in my motor blower fan. Smells horrible and rattles when I turn it on. Dropped the glove box area and see the housing but would like instructions on how to remove if anyone knows. Thanks for any assistance!

    Possible ‘13 LR4 Purchase (Also posted in Intro)

    My experience: I purchased my LR4 in 2017 with 70,000+ miles and I took out the extended warranty. It started paying for itself right away. After about 1,000 miles the front control arms were replaced, after that the water pump and accompanying parts, etc. My opinion: I didn't know what I...

    Castrol Synthetic Motor Oil Choices

    Read great reviews on the Castrol 03083 EDGE 5W-20 Advanced Full Synthetic Motor Oil, 5 Quart so I tried this instead. I'm sure both versions are more than sufficient given the technology and frequent oil change at 7,500 miles...

    I'm about to do differential and transfer case oil change. Thanks for this documentation but I have one... You removed the driver front wheel to replace the front differential oil? Is this correct? Thanks

    Castrol Synthetic Motor Oil Choices

    What's the major difference in the 3 types of synthetic motor oils from Castrol: Professional (most expensive); Extended Performance; and Advanced? Is this difference significant enough to warrant the higher price tag when doing oil changes every 7,500 miles? Atlantic British sells and...

    Rotor wear advice

    I’m not a big fan of ceramic brake pads as they are softer. Less dust but softer. The rotors have great specs if the machine work is as precise as they say I might bite. Do you feel it’s quality stuff? Will probably get OE pads or EBC green stuff to complement as they only carry ceramic pads.

    Rotor wear advice

    It's not a matter of cheap. I'm an architect by trade and do my research before any purchase. I've worked on billionaires houses as well as thosr with less cash and I can tell you sometimes you can get stuff from Home Depot that although not a sticker on the butt item does the job. So it's...

    Rotor wear advice

    Where did you get your EBC premium heavy duty drilled and slotted rotors? Do the slotted version feel any different than the non slotted? Thanks

    Rotor wear advice

    I gave maxbrakes a call as the LR4 is not listed on there website. Even there best slotted rotors are cheaper than OE rotors from British Atlantic. Which version did you buy for your LR? Thanks

    Coil Springs for my LR4 in the future as it ages

    Got it. The rods are a replacement for the factory rods and to fill that gap the spacers are needed. Understood. Looking at the Johnson Rod site and gauging if the additional height and complications is worth the 2.5" gain. Thanks again for steering me in the right direction.

    Coil Springs for my LR4 in the future as it ages

    Thanks for all the info! I prefer the air springs as far as ride quality so its good to know that the springs can be changed out easily and that I can get decent size tires on 18" wheels without modifications. Strut spacer? What tire size benefit does it offer and is there a trade of on ride...

    Coil Springs for my LR4 in the future as it ages

    Good to know! So a strut spacer instead of the Johnson Rods? Does the spacer effect ride quality? I've heard raising the LR can at times be problematic for the computer. Thanks

    Is a d5 a great deal right now?

    My auto mechanic (whose a wizard on Land Rovers) said that the timing chain issue is 95% of the time an oil issue. Stated that keep synthetic oil in the LR4 and make sure to keep the oil at OK. He didn't even puss the change every 6000 miles story although that is good insurance. I'm betting...

    LR4 on 33's

    Well... from the sidelines... if by chance they don't work, and I think everyone on this thread hopes they do (who doesn't want to have a bad ass bigger tire rig?) but... without major modifications that cost $$$ or sacrifice the ride integrity or aesthetic of the LR4. That said have you...

    Coil Springs for my LR4 in the future as it ages

    Interesting. Can you clarify for the uninitiated? I'm just now getting around to looking at the shop owners manual that runs almost 2000 pages, so I'm not completely familiar with changing out the air suspension. I will be soon tho.
