would also be interested to know if anyone experiences any rubbing with the 275/55/20 BF KO2's on the stock 19" wheels.. their diameter is 31.9", may be a bit too big to avoid rub
Recently picked up a '13 HSE Lux with 55K miles and am only vaguely familiar with the general preventative maintenance things to look out for so thought I'd put down what I have heard (or think I heard) from friends who own LR3/4'S through the years.
may be well out of date info, or unecessary...
Just wanted to update those that were interested - picked it up today for just under $18K.
Drove like a dream, or at least I think it did as the wife promptly took it over for the rest of the day :s::driver:
will definitely do an oil change and swap out the control arms as a start.
According to the Foreman, there was a very slight but unusual noise coming from the rear diff. Didn't mention much else, just that it isn't audible if you don't know what to listen for but he felt it needed to be...
Yes I was surprised as well to hear about the engine mounts and rear diff needing attention at not even 60K miles, especially as all those miles have been on-road if the seller is to be believed.
are front control arms the type of thing you can leave around the time of the next oil change or...
took it a local LR specialist indy and got the following feedback:
front and rear upper arm bushes damage (control arms) - fronts are costly, garage claims it is pointless to change bushes as issues will persist afterwards so replacing control arms is recommended ($$$$)
brake pads are ok - some...
Would be interested to know at what point LR made the changes with the steel insert post class action. When was the cut off manufacture date I wonder..
Not sure if it is worth mentioning - but the manufacture date is December of 2012 - which I imagine likely means it missed out on a lot of the updates that were made to models manufactured in 2013..
He originally had it listed at $24K and I came in at 13.5 and after a bit of back and forth he is ready to part with it at 19. It's petrol - you'll find very few diesel cars manufactured for this market although those that are do seem to be offroad vehicles.
most definitely. The guy has had it listed at 19K for a few months now and has trouble getting someone to take it off him when most other places he'd be able to sell it for double.
I appreciate the input - it's clear the owner really loved it if he was taking it into the dealer basically every 6 months for 7 years straight. Out of curiousity I've had a look at similar mileage '13's in the States and you are right, upwards of $30k sometimes - really surprised me.
Makes me...
Found a '13 LR4 HSE in Marmaris Teal (pretty nice color, check it out) with cream interior, no HD package and at around 55K miles. Only one owner, who is willing to part with it for $19K. Never been taken off-road apparently, only used as a family daily driver. Loved it but was forced to part...
