    Second Throttle Body Replacement

    I'm getting the "Restricted Performance" message, accompanied by rough idle. I turn off the motor and restart it and everything goes away, but it will happen on a regular basis. The codes are for the throttle body and pedal position sensor. I had the throttle body replaced only two years ago...

    2011 LR4 Windshield Wipers Over-rotate

    When the wipers are on they over-rotate on the bottom end. It's kind of annoying. Is there a way to adjust them.

    Cloud of Smoke

    My son had almost the same thing with his Chevy truck. It turned out to be condensation that was dumping into the exhaust system (I forget the specifics). Simple fix.

    Reliability

    I bought our 2011 LR4 used with about 50k miles on it. First 5 years, reliable AF. I wasn't on this forum and didn't know about the "quirks". A few years ago I had the crossover pipe burst (because I didn't know to check it). Since then I have had to replace the throttle body ($2.5k)...

    Does the problem go away when you restart your LR?

    Suspension Fault

    I have a chronic suspension fault warning. The truck is always level and at the right height - never drops to the stops. I get the warning also if I try to lift it for higher ground clearance. Interesting thing, I had a flat last week, put on the spare. It was almost a week before I had the time...

    100,000+ miles. Out of warranty. Time to trade?

    There is a release under the cup holder. Remove it (the cup holder) and look for a cable loop. Pull up on that loop (with some kind of tool) and the e-brake will release. You will have to get it repaired, but that will allow the tow truck driver to get it on the truck.

    CV joints, too.

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    From the explanation I got, the valve body includes the electronics that inform the system what gear the LR is in. I am getting "Gearbox not in Park", which would keep it from starting.

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    Follow-up: The mechanic says it is a bad valve body in the transmission - $5000.00. Ouch!

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    I tried the hard reset. It didn't really clear anything except the clock and switched the temperature to C instead of F. It's at the mechanic, not. I'll follow up with what I find out.

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    Funny, I took the new battery back to have it checked. It passed the load test and was 89% charged, so I had them charge to 100%. The cables were undone for over an hour, but I didn't know to touch them together before I hooked the battery back up. I'll have to unhook them again and try that.

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    Thanks for the response. I did try both of those to no avail.

    2011 LR 4 won't turn over, locked in Park, emergency brake set

    This morning my wife pulled the LR 4 out of the garage. It idled rough for just long enough for several faults to come up, including Transmission Fault and HDC Fault. The idle smoothed back out within a few seconds, so she shut it off to clear the faults from the dashboard. When she went to...
