    Take a wild guess..

    I haven't posted here in a long time. Glad to hear you and your family are OK and you got your car back! Out of curiosity- do you think your tires negatively affected your braking distance?

    Official 2014 Changes to LR4

    Sorry, I considered .2sec slower to 60 as insignificant (it is). Although I'm sure you'll feel the difference more at 80mph. On the contrary, people who buy this SUV's are concerned about fuel economy. They're not concerned to the level of a Prius owner, but they want something better than what...

    2014 LR4 from Frankfurt

    That's not 35mpg on the U.S. cycle, just FYI. Official word is that the diesel would be too expensive to federalize. Shame.

    Official 2014 Changes to LR4

    Woof. Lay off the caffeine. :tongue: This LR4 isn't going to get stuck left-and-right because no one is going to be taking them off-road in the first place. I seriously doubt most people who drive these even know how to engage low range. The soft roading they actually engage in (driving across a...

    Newest 2014 rumors?

    The power specs are obviously not as good, no doubt about that. The reviews I read said it is [obviously] slower but still a viable powerplant. Bottom line, the reduced emissions and better fuel economy make for a "better fit" engine for the times. In any event, while the acceleration will...

    Newest 2014 rumors?

    Doubt it. The SC V8 will more likely be reserved for the premium Range Rover line. Got to save something for the big dogs. Besides, the LR4's dynamics don't call for 500hp. People literally say this about every iconic brand. Mercedes, BMW, Rolls Royce (when the Ghost came out), you name it. If...

    Picked up my Causeway Grey LR4...

    The body lines and door handles are saying yes. If so, nice pick up (both of them).

    Bought a 2013 LR4

    Just wanted to bump this thread to say awesome truck! I just priced out a black on black HSE lux with the black package (I'm tempted to say black one more time :biggrin:). I love the look!

    2014 LR4 Facelift

    I wouldn't be concerned about the reliability of this engine. Jaguar has had great success with its supercharged V8s with no problems, this 6-cyl should be no different. With the 8-speed transmission and FI V6 you're definitely going to see some fuel economy savings. This forum, like most things...

    transmission problems on our 2010 LR4

    Wow. Keep us updated. Definitely an unusual situation, as this transmission is used in several different Jags and Land Rovers and has proven to be a solid unit.

    Lr4 Brakes

    I wish I could find the part numbers for the Armored LR4 that comes with heavy duty brakes. They'd probably be worth the investment. Their made by alcon, but I can't find any info on them. http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1052715_land-rover-launches-bullet-proof-lr4-armored

    Reversing Camera Tram Line Overlay

    They should move if you have the surround camera system and the tow assist goodies.

    Lr4 Brakes

    Has there been any update on brake pad consumption? It'd be nice if there was an aftermarket solution to this issue. That's a lot of money to spending on a regular basis...

    LR4 Radio keeps going out!

    You need to just push for your dealer to replace the unit. From what I've gathered, that's the easiest fix. I know you're considered a troll, but I'll bite. Go to any vehicle forum where the car model as a multimedia/nav system. You'll see this exact same problem. I even saw it when I was...

    large noise from cooling fan

    My old 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 had this exact same setup. It would roar for the first minute or so and then go away by the time i got up enough speed to go into second. It sounded awesome.

    Is this the type of reliability I can expect?

    Tha'ts the dealer's fault though isn't it? Don't worry, my '03 SE7 with 29k has had a host of issues too. There was debris in the AC blower, 2 oil leaks, a sagging headliner, groaning power steering pump, and squeeky breaks that haven't been fixed on the 3rd try. I still love the truck though...

    Supercharged Range engine

    That'd be sweet but unless you have heaps of dispensable money i'd say no.

    Engine light flashes, won't crank, white smoke

    Hopefully its bad gas. I've in GA too and have been looking at Bear Valley's inventory. Are they nice people to work with?
