    gallery pressure

    I was hoping to get some data points from the community regarding gallery pressure changes over time. Specifically, I'd like the following data from folks that have an IID Tool and are inclined to document behavior: 1. From cold start, starting gallery pressure, ending gallery pressure and...

    bad lower ball joint lead to howling?

    I've been hearing a bit of a growling/howling noise from the front left, more pronounced when weight transfers to that side (i.e. on right turns). I figured I was in for new hubs, got home and lifted the wheel off the ground and gave it a good tug. No play 12/6, but a clunk 3/9, and I could...

    power steering fluid in bellows - problem?

    I'm replacing the tie rods (104k miles) - took it in for an alignment and the shop said they needed replacing. Decided to give it a go myself, and realized why they called for replacement: the lock not for the ball joint was seized (enough that I snapped my channel locks trying to loosen it -...

    Tie Rods - LR010667 vs. LR010668

    Looking at individual parts, it seems the LR4 uses the same outer tie rod (LR010672) as well as inner (QFK500010). LR010667 includes both of these, but various sites (RoverParts, FCPEuro, Lucky8) show LR010668 for the right side, with QFK500020 as the inner tie rod. Is this for the LR3 that...

    difference between front and rear valve blocks?

    My front valve block might be on its way out - the front end is sagging again as of a few nights ago (when temperatures dropped quite a bit). Looking at various sites, it appears the front is backordered. Any idea what the difference is between the front and rear blocks? I'm surprised LR...

    steering wheel off center, but tracks straight

    I went offroad last weekend, at a leisurely pace, no drama, though I can tell that I used the full range of articulation in the rear at least (based on light scuffs from the tires on the splash shields at the 10-o-clock (driver's side) and 2-o-clock (passenger side) position). Coming home I...

    OEMPlus: new option for skid plates?

    Anyone ever heard of OEMPlus (https://oem-plus-webshop.de/epages/346ef957-0b68-487b-90e9-27c6570db097.sf/de_DE/?ObjectPath=/Shops/346ef957-0b68-487b-90e9-27c6570db097), a company out of Germany? They seem to have a fairly nice assortment of skid plates.

    sagging confirmed, now what?

    Most of the advice I've read here is to park on a level surface, pull the fuses, and measure. Other than the level surface, I did that, and had the following readings: Time Front Left Front Right Rear Left Rear Right 2022-07-31, 2:30PM 35 1/4" 33 13/16" 34 1/2" 36 1/8" 2022-07-31, 7:30PM...

    IID Tool and control module firmware updates

    On my quest to reach zero codes thrown, I noticed that there are many control modules that have available firmware updates. Should I be looking to get these updated somehow? Does that require a trip to the dealer? I couldn't find a way to update from the tool itself...

    full hood vinyl wrap - single piece?

    Anyone know if the hood can be wrapped with a single piece, or is it too hard to stretch it over the corners, such that you really must have a cut line there? Ours has the front edge wrapped, and I'd like to apply a black bit to the raised part of the top, but it will overlap the existing...

    non-decorative-capped lugnut availability?

    I'd like to keep a few lugnuts that don't have a decorative cap that can be damaged on hand. It seems the stock ones suffer from being deformed if the socket isn't placed on them perfectly, which then makes it harder to place the socket properly, slowly making it less and less likely you'll be...

    Difference between Right Hand/Passenger Mirrors between EU and US versions

    EU version is LR013774, while US is 013776. Anyone know the difference between them, is it just the mandatory "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" text, but otherwise dimensions, heating element, mounting points are all the same?

    Parts Pricing local LR vs. online LR, what gives?

    So I'm looking to replace my mirror glass, as the heating elements seem to have given up (high resistance, not open circuit). Looking at various online LR sites: - https://parts.landroverparamus.com/ (NJ) - https://parts.landroverlakebluff.com/ (IL) - https://www.landrovermerriamparts.com/ (KS)...

    B1163-15 code - heated mirrors

    Went to reset the service indicator post oil-change, as a good opportunity to try out the IID tool. I scanned codes while I was there and got a B1163-15 code from both Driver Door Module (DDM) and Passenger Door Module (PDM), about "heater output - General electrical failure - circuit short to...

    compressor service

    So I had a flat tire today, left rear, and now I need to pull the EAS compressor to replace its bracket. <facepalm/> What other things should I be doing in terms of compressor service? I see that Atlantic British have a later-model style AMK compressor (mine's a Hitachi, 2012 model year). The...

    Hi there

    Been lurking for a bit, love the breadth and depth of information shared here. Bought our 2012 LR4 in June 2017, fresh off a timing chain and brake job, with 75k miles. Its main use has been on pavement, as an excellent hauler of our family of 6 - everyone gets a comfortable seat with nice...
