    Gas Tank Filler & Check Engine Light & Gas Cap Light

    Hey Ubanghi, For what it’s worth I’m still experiencing intermittent issues with this.. namely a bizarre sucking sound from the fuel filler cap - which I’ve also replaced among other things... let us know how you’re getting on. Cheers!

    Thoughts on 2021 Bronco as LR4 replacement?

    I will probably replace my LR with a Bronco, but I’m not in a rush to. The biggest trade of will be the reduction in rear cabin space versus the fun factor.

    Another Defender hint?

    I agree that they will probably appeal to different crowds, but everyone can clearly see the Bronco takes advantage of the fact that LR has abandoned its traditional base. (Heartbreaking for long-standing enthusiasts like us) And at the end of the day I can see Bronco clobbering Defender in...

    Now if they are smart, McGovern and the gang will be working on getting the Defender facelift to grow a pair at this point.... problem is they fundamentally got it wrong- What a nightmare for LR unfortunately...

    Another Defender hint?

    Clearly LR residuals were integrated into Defender2 pricing... the launch mix is also skewed towards higher spec units. Add in the dealership markups and the value equation leaves you scratching the head.. I also have to admit the design isn’t bad. It just comes across as a bit plastic and...

    LR4 vs Defender

    All I can say is (((Bronco))) It’s gonna catch LR and the new Defender with its pants around it’s ankles!!! Gotta tip my hat to Ineos though! Great effort to honor the original. Also great that folks will have different choices all over the price spectrum as well. End of the day though- I’ll...

    Another Defender hint?

    The company said that they have received just 22,000 orders for the new Land mRover Defender, a model JLR hopes to sell in large volumes. That figure is disappointing according to analysts who spoke to Financial Times, adding that it’s only slightly higher than the number of old Defenders sold...

    Another Defender hint?

    Will be interesting to see how long the dealers run those 10k markups... I personally don’t feel like the Design warrants the premium. I’m also not sure the demand is that strong either... especially with so many folks thinking differently about big purchases at the moment...

    Another Defender hint?

    Stopped at the local Rover dealership on the way home today. They had a single defender on the lot with 10k mark up/ and added 5k in nick nacks: 90k Grand total before LA country taxes! In 2020 anything goes I suppose...

    Wonder about the price point on that one: Probably isn’t a more expensive engine to make than the others....

    Any official word on postponement due to Covid? I can’t imagine the delivery of vehicles not being delayed... Awful financial impact for JLR...

    Another Defender hint?

    Agreed! It was one of the first things I noticed and as disappointed with. When I sat in it and spent some time it’s quickly apparent the LR4 has far better packaging.

    Spacers. Yes or No? If yes, then how?

    @jwest[ Might you have any thoughts on this? 1 inch spacer in the rear only? Any trouble for terrain response system potentially?

    Spacers. Yes or No? If yes, then how?

    Thread resurrection!!! Forgive me for what might seem like a “hell 2the NO question” but does anyone have any experience with running spacers of a different size front to rear? Or for that matter, in the rear only? Would they really screw with the vehicle dynamics? Or cause a serious...

    Another Defender hint?

    I have the feeling the Bronco is going to be an absolute monster hit! At least for all us who want a Wrangler alternative. Fact of the matter is there literally no manufacturer who’s come close to giving Jeep a decent challenge.... We all wanted LR to be the one but sadly they went a different route

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    All for this! Particularly interested in pics and descriptions of what trimming and grinding was done to accommodate larger size rubber. It would be great to see where, what, and how much to cut!

    Stock LR4 and 275 55 20s - the results!!

    Jwest, In your testing have you found that 32 inch tires absolutely require strut spacers to turn when fully stuffed in the event of an EAS failure?

    Another Defender hint?

    Yeah agree: Maybe not it’s best angle or shot... One of the reasons I’m having a tough time with the the front... damn I really want to love it but have to be honest about the LR4 being better looking!
