Engine will not turn over
Sure it's in Park or Neutral? Seems to me I had to step on the brake pedal and move the shift lever through the range of Park to Drive and Back, to get it to fire or something like that on a similar problem. Too many cars, too many features. It could be that the linkage system display on the... -
LR3 trailer plug lights flicker
I had the same problem. Lights worked fine on my old boat trailer, but a new utility trailer flashed continuously but dimly. The lights all worked as expected and brighter then the continuous flash. I treat it as a new improved safety feature! -
Leaving the hood / bonnet open overnight for rats.
Got to ask, why do you need hood open over night? Rat most likely coming in from underside, right? I've heard that fox urine repellent works for rodents. But I have not had the problem under hood. Maybe you can identify and pull the fuse for hood alarm? (If there is one). -
Gos into low gear by itself when starting to drive.
When I did the transmission fluid changeover, I somehow partially unseated a sensor that sits behind the linkage lever, not sure what the sensors function was or what it is called, but it somehow works the dash transmission position light PRND, and gear numbers. This caused many strange symptoms... -
weird sound on engine
Mine did same thing - 2006 LR3. Irritating whining/whirling noise, showed up out of blue, did not go away. At first I thought it was AC or Power Steering pump pulley bearing on Serpentine belt or belt itself. I watched some youtubes for idea's and bought a mechanics stethoscope. I was into it by... -
Transmission Fault and more
I was driving in heavy rain recently and started getting repeating brake light errors accompanied with beep, and also Check Brake Pad display messages. I got home but did check and replace the front brakes and when removing the wear sensor on drive side, it broke. It might have already been... -
sensor from hell
Took the tire off again and saw that the wheel well could be removed. Needed to remove it. About 7-8 screws and 10 of the plastic prong connectors, then take off the fender flare to wrestle it off. Sure enough, there was the top plugin for the sensor. Checked Warning light was off, and it was. I... -
sensor from hell
After fixing my whining noise up front (serpentine belt rotation) by figuring out the source was the primary belt tensioner pulley bearings, and replacing the pulley, a new emergency surfaced. The LR3 had sat around in the weather for a month, waiting for delivery of wrenches, stethoscopes... -
Transmission Fault and more
So it did a system test and redisplayed the same codes and messages? Replacing a the iffy battery fixed a raft of erroneous error on my 2006 LR3. Maybe you have corrosion on the connectors or loose connections? Did you wire brush posts and connectors? A little corrosion can make a good battery... -
Primary belt tensioner
Problem is fixed after putting a new pulley on the primary tensioner. No more high pitched whine drowning out the purr of the big V8! -
Primary belt tensioner
I used a pry bar and it came loose. Pulley turns slow and is not free spinning. Tensioner spring seems to work fine. Removed and checked other tensioner on shorter secondary waterpump/fan belt, it spins freely . Both the belts seem without noticeable wear or deterioration. Removed rubber seals... -
Primary belt tensioner
Have a constant whining noise when Landrover LR3 is running, gets louder with acceleration. I did a noise test on the primary belt tensioner and it seems to be the cause. I finally removed the fan after numerous failed attempts. Used breaker bar with Atlantic British 36mm wrench and the water... -
Transmission Fault
Thanks for tip. Not meaning to hijack thread, but noise seems to be up front on drivers side. Can belt be manually tightened, or has it just worn and stretched? -
Why is aux chord is soo quiet...
I've got a Samsung phone that I use in Aux for music, same issue. Loudest out of Left Front. But I also tried phone into a little mini speaker and also noticed no stereo. It seemed like the cable was at fault, if I bluetoothed to speaker things were fine. I think the China cables and UK... -
Transmission Fault
I was getting faults on an 06 LR3 HSE, but somewhat opposite where it would slip into neutral at rolling stops. However did loose Sport and Manual modes at times. Transmission faults sometimes. I decided to do the Transmission filter update kit, thought it made a difference, but it came back... -
Planning on swapping trans pan and fluid change...low profile torx recommendations?
The Atlantic British kit came with 7 liters of ZF life guard. On unpack, the kit recommended using a tap (tap and die) to ream out each female hole that the pan bolts seat in, the kit description did not mention or provide one (just a heads up, since you're planning). The bolts provided are... -
2 Piece Transmission Filter And Pan Kit
I did it myself using the conversion with the separate filter. Hacksawed off the old filter neck, etc. Heat shield bolts were a big PITA, so was sawing off the filter neck. After all is said and done, it was a big sense of accomplishment! Leaks can sometimes come from the back top of... -
'08 LR3 Transmission Fault - HDC Failure Speciual programs not avail
I have had transmission linkage problems HDC failures and also Transmission faults with a 2006 LR3. I replaced the transmission fluid, but did not fix. I adjusted the cable linkage several times, but although it shifted ok, it never seemed to stay in gear after an undetermined amount of driving... -
Transmission problem on LR3 2015
Another seized transmission lever bushing. D lit on console, no D lit on dash display? This shows the replacement of the lever, but you can also see the bushing that seizes up on the cable attachment clamp. Put some penetrating oil on the larger nut (behind the set nut) and larger nut can be... -
2007 LR3 - No Acceleration in Drive
Sounds like same problem I finally fixed. D on console is lit, but D on dash display is not. If no D on dash, it's in neutral and engine races but transmission lever is still in Neutral. I found a youtube that explained the symptoms I had, calling it a seized transmission lever bushing. There... -
transmission slow to engage coming off stop
Hmmm, linkage messed up again after towing a trailer to help move my son. Went underneath and loosened up the set nut and tried adjustment. Only to get everything really messed up. Stuck in Park, wouldn't go into drive, etc. Thought I needed a new linkage lever kit. More youtube searches. This... -
Sqeaky passenger rear wheel after disc and rotor change
Thanks! I did tweek the parking brake adjustment a bit, will try again. I also saw that the there were pad backing sleeves on each pad that originally were adhered but now loose. I'll give that gasket sealer a try! -
transmission slow to engage coming off stop
Think I'll just re-check the fluid level. This time I bought a piece of thermo guard to cover catalytic converter while at work. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GFW5Q0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 as I also plan to drain and refill differentials and transfer case. -
Sqeaky passenger rear wheel after disc and rotor change
It's back... right turn or right curve, starts to squeak. stops when straightened out. I did put wear indicator back on disc, but discs not worn down. I did see what looked like a flaw in one of the discs, like a hairline blemish on it's surface. Will replace that disc with one I removed and see... -
Sqeaky passenger rear wheel after disc and rotor change
I took off the wheel and brake caliper and closely examined the pads. One of the brake pad clips on outside pad was not properly centered, not touching rotor but close. I guess any kind of lean on suspension during a right turn, started it complaining. Removed and reset each pad and noise seems...
