    P0301- Cylinder 1 misfire. Restricted Performance. Rough idle under Load. 2012 LR4

    Trying to get to the bottom of this gremlin: On cold startup, the engine will idle rather rough. Under load, it will hesitate a climb.

    Battery Management System & power discharge leak

    On a day at the beach, my alternator failed last summer. I drove the truck as far to as I could before the battery was completely depleted. It was quite impressive how the BMS (battery management system) categorically shut off non-essential power consuming systems, down to the brake lights...

    Top Engine Rebuild

    Hello! I'm new to this site. My newly purchased LR4 hesitated to start and ran rough for 2 min before stalling. I suspected fuel pumps (all three) and timing chains- replaced all,only to discover symptoms remain minus timing chain slapping noise. I should have done a compression test before...
