    My 2012 LR4 is not starting anymore, help please

    This is well laid out in the workshop manual…. if you don’t reset, it will learn of the new battery characteristics over a short period of time. But why “guess”…. There should be codes.

    2016 LR4 Dead... need help!

    Coincidentally, I do not use a maintainer on any of my vehicles, thus cannot agree; The generator does keep the good battery sufficiently topped up. I only use the charger if working on the vehicle. @powershift, are you certain that after 6 hours the battery still rests at 13.5v?

    2016 LR4 Dead... need help!

    Though, not so weird really…. think of it as there are numerous electronic modules needing power. If the minimum requirement is not available, as managed by other modules, some power up, less important ones don’t. I think like @Quijote . Its always the battery. And possibly a failing generator.

    I think mold got on my seats

    I’ve heard of the lysol trick. I have never tried it, though. Won’t it leave a sticky mess inside the ductwork?? Truly, there isn’t an issue I haven’t fixed by using the autoglym products and a toothbrush…. that includes pen ink and permanent marker ink on the seats. I also have never had...

    Threshold scratches....the ocd in me

    LOL... mine goes off road though the bush... we call our scratches "bragging rights".

    My 2012 LR4 is not starting anymore, help please

    "New Battery" means nothing. Specifically, after being OFF the charger for at least 6 hours, what is the voltage on this "new" battery?

    Greasy transmission, should I be worried?

    Did you look at the workshop manual... its a big job. Frankly, I'm the kind of guy that changes fluids whenever opportunity arrises. I know nothing of your vehicle but unless the fluid and pan were recently changed...

    Front Control Arm Replacement on LR4 and saw a warning light come on

    Replaced by any "Tom, **** or Harry"? Or a reputable tech with theses vehicles? Codes would help but it may be as simple as looking behind the wheel and confirming that the ride height sensor wasn't mangled and that the connector was cleaned and properly connected. @Moderators, Love this...

    Long Roof Rails

    I feel I’ve been misinterpreted. I cannot effectively prescribe instructions for an unknown part. How could I possibly take any responsibility and the worst…. what happens if I’m wrong. “Feelings” don’t count. The part supplier should provide the instructions.

    Who knows in your case... its not oem.

    Suspension // Yaw Rate Sensor

    Without codes... it can be one of a hundred? things. Did your inde shop pull the idea out of a hat?

    2015 Land Rover LR4 HSE- Thinking about buying, does the engine sound right? https://youtu.be/wqjUb-qWbxE

    At this many miles... I can't agree. I've had new cars where the head gasket was replaced (thankfully on warranty)

    do I read the carfax properly... that the dealer dumped it onto a used car lot? hmmm, what's going on.

    :). The ‘04+ XJs are significantly under rated. Truly, the best car I’ve ever owned or driven. And there have been a lot of cars. It’s not in my signature block but I also have an ‘02 S-type R.

    Me, a mere 200 miles, I’d be taking the trip. Many confuse the sound of the hpfp with the timing chains... I rarely trust that anyones maintenance schedule and procedure is as complete as mine. Therefore, first order of business is change every fluid. This gives me the opportunity to confirm...

    Road Trip, now have CEL with P0420

    Yes, Kat Kleen does work. Surprises me really. I use it before my spring time italian tune up on the xkr. It keeps away the dreaded check engine light. Good luck on the root cause analysis. But I thought both air ducts feed into a common intake into the engine. And that the ECM did...

    ftillier's maintenance history

    Well, I for one wish you didn’t post this. I was living quite happily in denial. Of course, you could have bought a new Kia for that total. But you’ll need at least double that for anything “real”.

    maintenance history since new 2013

    I think you’re asking for a little much. ;)

    Or a misbehaving injector?? Are the O2 sensors oem, or cheap aftermarket?? Are the MAFs clean??

    Engine goes into reduced power mode

    With the fuel you’re burning at 95, why are you worrying about the fuel used by the shop?

    Fluids change after 9 years?

    I concur, @LB Bill . Especially the part about it being “cheap insurance”. Btw, I think you only missed power steering fluid and supercharger oil. ;-)
