2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
Digging up an old thread, did this problem ever get solved? Anyone else have input? My truck is doing the same thing, threw P0087 and went into restricted performance on a trip this weekend. It had actually thrown this code one or two other times late last winter but it went away on it's own in... -

Wear & Tear hvac knobs - door armrest
I can confirm that the door is only available as a complete panel even though you can remove just that component from the actual panel. My truck had some damage when I bought it (prior owner's children had cracked the speaker grilles), the dealer committed to fix before delivery and was then... -

Lloyd mats?
Hi all, I'd like to get some floor mats for my new-to-me LR4. It came with first row mats but none in back, where my kids will be climbing in and out with snow and mud on their boots. I don't like rubber mats, I'd prefer a carpet mat and ideally one that's custom for our vehicles and fits well... -

Voltmeter / USB charge port install
Just note, regarding accuracy on the voltage reading - I would suggest checking against a known-good meter to establish a "calibration" offset, when cold and again when warm. They are often a tenth or two off when warm, but I've had a handful of similar meters in vehicles and I've noticed they... -

5.0 Injector Lifespan? Worth replacing during Timing Chain job?
I hope saltyfly doesn't mind if I slightly hijack the thread, but maybe we can stay focused by answering the following questions regarding the 5.0 v8, with a yes or no, plus mileage, and any relevant info: 1) Have you had actual injector issues? How did you remedy? 2) Have you cleaned/serviced... -

What's with JLR?/Defender rant
I don't think we are disagreeing. I wasn't trying to speak to development timeliness so at least I'm not sure what you meant with your first point. With respect to the second. I think you are describing the end result of what I talked about. The product line isn't differentiated on function at... -

5.0 Injector Lifespan? Worth replacing during Timing Chain job?
BeemerNut, you are referencing Bosch injectors and fpr's from conventional port injection engines. It is my understanding that the 5.0 is direct injected and therefore a completely different beast in terms of injectors. Is that not correct? Do you have actual experience maintaining direct... -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
Oh I agree, It's definitely a possibility. I was just curious about the probability. How many 5.0 vehicles that were noisy at "x" miles had an actual problem affecting use? That's all. My comment about "Ford" was tongue in cheek, I didn't mean to discredit the guy. Anyone trying to spread the... -

General thoughts on buying a 2011 LR4 with 100k miles?
It appears that the original statement above against the 19's was because of a dealer's (totally bogus) comment that the Conti tires were "too much." There's nothing wrong with the 19" wheels, there are plenty of good tires available for highway, snow, and light duty offroading. I like Nokian... -

5.0 Injector Lifespan? Worth replacing during Timing Chain job?
Prior owner replaced the injectors in my truck around 90k miles according to a receipt I have. Not sure why, just providing as a data point. It was actually at the same time as the timing chain and guides. -

What's with JLR?/Defender rant
I don't think it's fair to compare market strategies between LR and MB/Toyota. MB and Toyota have a full vehicle lineup. There's a whole lot of diversity. That gives them stability and resourcing to go after niche products (like a "serious" off road vehicle) that a tiny brand like LR doesn't... -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
Interesting. It must be really bad in some motors then. His explanation of the engine trying to "put in" timing around 6:15 or so is way out of left field... Almost as bad as calling this a Ford engine! -

2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?
Well, good news. The headlight swap works. The LEDs appear to be wired to the same pins on the plug as the plain running light bulb is on my headlight, so swapping to the "with LEDs" headlight just means that you get the LEDs lit up in place of the running lights, which is exactly what I wanted... -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
My truck had the timing chain and guides done recently - before I bought it - so I'm not super concerned about this, but I am curious as to what I had thought was the OP's actual question: Has anyone had an actual failure of a chain or guide? As in, the motor was non-functional because the part... -

Code readers and diagnostic tools
The iLand tool can read and reset problem codes, read settings (ie DRLs) but not change them, can't do new keys. According to an email response from AB. Doesn't sound as useful as the gap tool. I am surprised given the marketing material on the website makes it sound all powerful. -

Code readers and diagnostic tools
I sent AB an email asking for some clarification around specific functions. I'll report back when they respond. I would love to hear from some real world users. -

Code readers and diagnostic tools
I've found a few threads but nothing super comprehensive. I'm interested to hear about experiences with different LR specific diagnostic tools. It seems that the I'd from gap diagnostics is mentioned by default but it's also the most expensive at more than $500 for the Bluetooth version. How... -

Repair manuals, wiring diagrams?
Anything available online? I've seen the paid topix portal and eBay vendors selling pdfs of manuals. Just curious if anything else is out there, specific to the LR4. Googling brings back a huge jumble of stuff that's not helpful or for the wrong model(s). I may just buy a pdf but figured it... -

2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?
I just ordered a "halogen with LED" headlight used on ebay. I'm going to plug it in and see what happens. I'll report back. I don't have one of the programming tools you guys all reference and my closest dealer is 2 hours away so I'm really hoping this will work with no programming. If it... -

2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?
Base model HSE 2010 LR4 didn't have actual LEDs for the halo, it's got the spots for them but there are only fake little plastic crystals where the actual LEDs are supposed to be. The LUX trim package and apparently some standalone options allowed you to get the LEDs in 2010. Again, to be... -

2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?
Thanks, that's a good resource. I don't know if I want to bite off a complete conversion though. I just want the '11-'13 halogen headlights with the LED halos in them. I can find the part number for the appropriate headlight, I just don't know if there are any other differences (ie wiring... -

2010 HSE - add the LED "halo" lighting?
I was sad to see per this thread that the 2010 HSE did not have LEDs in the rings around the headlights: http://www.landroverworld.org/threads/headlamp-led-rings.18894/page-4 That thread is really old, and it mentions the possibility of swapping parts in order to add this feature in later. Has... -

Tire fitment - 255/60R19 ok?
Hi all, Recent new LR4 owner. Truck has newish all seasons, but I'd prefer to put a set of dedicated winter tires on it. Locally I can get a good deal on a set of snows that are new takeoffs from another vehicle, but they are not the "right" size. 255/60R19 instead of 255/55R19. That... -

Buying help needed!!!
Vinyl is cheap enough that I wouldn't bother trying to deform a narrow strip, I'd just cut from rectangles. If you really wanted to be thrifty you could "nest" them close together versus using a whole new rectangle for each piece. I've sprayed plasti-dip coating on car trim pieces before with...
