    Aftermarket Exhaust anyone?

    The LR brand is of a fine Englishman’s conveyance. Quiet and refined.

    L405 rear end vibration like an out of balance wheel...but it's not

    Is it fitted with the harmonic balance weights that hang from the rear corners up inside the rear bumper corners ? I have a 2011 RRS that will occasionally do a weird shake / sound at certain speeds but clears up. Does it every few months. If you google harmonic weights Range Rover you will see...

    Help to buy LR3 or RR Sport

    I have a 2011 RRS SC with close to 200,000km on it . Had it four years now and been pleased on the whole. The RRS is a direct descendant of the LR3 so a lot of similarities. I can’t speak for the V6 in the LR3 but the weak point in the V8 is the timing chains NA and SC . I think the tensioners...

    Parts identification - help needed

    I think the red circled ones in the top of the engine bay are breathers for the diffs.

    Water Pump #3 145,000 Mil

    Definitely the aluminum but I’m not sure if it’s available for the non sc engine. They are different from what i understand. You could poke around on the LR4 pages as they have the na engine too and there has been talk of whether the aftermarket aluminum pipes are available and any good or not...

    Water Pump #3 145,000 Mil

    I have a 2011 rrs sc. I bought it used 4 years ago and got its full service history by asking the dealer. It had 145,000 km / 90,000 miles on at the time and had been through 3 water pumps by then. I drove it for a year and started losing coolant so I did it myself with a $153cad one from rock...

    LR320 moving metal parts by the spare tire

    Let me know what you end up doing about it in case I ever get to that point . As it is I may have to lift the rear of the body up to replace the ACE active sway bar fitted to the rrs as it is seeping fluid. In which case I would replace those bushings at the same time regardless of what it is...

    LR320 moving metal parts by the spare tire

    I’ve attached a link that should explain it. I have a 2011 RRS - a direct descendant of the LR3 that makes a peculiar hum from time to time and the clears up that I put down to the same weights but not clunking yet- thank goodness. http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic78950.html

    OBDII That works for Land Rover and BMW/MINI

    Foxwell make some. I have the 510 elite and use it on a bmw, Range Rover sport and a Honda. I paid $180 for it over 7 years ago . I ordered it with bmw software and then paid $60 each for the LR software and Honda. I like it. It is fairly straightforward and resets battery, drains air...

    Towing a 2 horse trailer with my RR Sport 2012 HSE

    If it’s the same as the RRS which is based off of the LR3 it would be stored under the floor board in the trunk .

    Bleeder screw top blew off

    If it’s plastic which I think it is you can heat up a straight screwdriver blade and push it in carefully as it will want to melt straight through and then screw it out. I’ve done this on a broken plastic sensor in a metal hot tub heater with great success.

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    That’s exactly why I replaced mine with the metal pan so it was easier to do more frequent changes myself.

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    I couldn’t source the aftermarket gasket which I had also read about. I used the papery / cardboardy one that came with the AB kit and used the adhesive/sealant as used in the AB video. You likely need it anyway as the adhesive holds the gasket in place very firmly which is useful. Very...

    LR4 Transmission Fluid Change: Pan Swap Option

    FWIW , I did the transmission service on a 3 series BMW that also uses the same ZF transmission as LR uses. I used the genuine plastic ZF pan as there was no access issues on the BMW. I did the pan switch method on my ‘11 RRS with the AB kit with the metal pan. From memory it came with a BMW/ ZF...

    Unidentified plug near battery -2012 sport

    I have a 2011 sport. I just checked mine. That same wire is also there and not connected to anything . I think it is supposed to be like that. Must be for an option I assume. Was it running rough before the battery change ?

    Thank you for adding me

    What small ish problems do you have with it . I have the RRS SC. A 2011 I’ve had for 4 years. It had the timing chain/tensioner repair by the previous original owner. It’s been pretty good, had to do a water pump and some other minor things and keeping up with the maintenance, diffs and transfer...

    Parts on Back order… HELP!

    Below is a screenshot from rock auto in the US . I know you are in the uk but could you not try somewhere other than the LR dealer and try to source any of those part numbers?

    Lug Nuts Will Not Budge

    If you plan on removing wheels often or changing over seasonally a decent quality cordless impact gun is a good investment. About $2-300 for a half inch drive Mikwaukee or dewalt . There is 1150 ft lb of undoing torque on the Milwaukee so be careful putting nuts back on if you go that route and...

    Lug Nuts Will Not Budge

    Do you have another bar you can slide over that one to provide more leverage? When you get the nuts off you may find the wheel hard to get off still as they can corrode to the centre of the hub. A firm kick with the bottom of your foot at the bottom of the wheel with your back to the car usually...

    Hot Hood. Hot engine compartment. Hot grill.

    I got the EMplus. TBH I didn’t realize the other one existed. At the time I had trouble finding the plus so just got it. I use it in a ‘11 rrsc and monitor coolant temp, batt voltage, sc intake temp and boost level etc. You can set an alarm for high coolant temp etc and oil change interval too.

    Hot Hood. Hot engine compartment. Hot grill.

    If you want some more peace of mind install an ‘Ultraguage’ . It plugs into the obd outlet and sits neatly on the dash . It monitors about 60 sensors including coolant temp a lot more accurately than the dash gauge. It displays whatever you want it to and is on whenever the engine is on. Bought...
