Land Rover Service is outrageous.
Nathan, So you are saying that there are no bolts to remove to change either the uppers or the lower bushings? Thanks. -

Land Rover Service is outrageous.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the $250 in diagnostics is because "it takes a different scanner to scan each different fault." -

Land Rover Service is outrageous.
I took the truck in for the following items: 1. Rear hatch doesn't work. - they said need new actuator and are repairing under warranty. 2. Suspension rattle. I told them I probably need bushings. Said that they replaced the uppers, then it still rattled, so they went to work on... -

Land Rover Service is outrageous.
Normally, as a consumer, I am hardly the "complaining" type. However, this is getting really bad. I really feel sorry for the average consumer that isn't ready to do battle every time they take their LR3 in for service. I have written about these problems before, but they just keep getting... -

Land Rover is obnoxious.
Thanks for the advice. I will try that next time. Going to the LR dealer is like a sporting event. You have to first be on the defense for all the maintenance items that they want to do for the most outrageous price possible. Then, when you tell them "no thanks, I will just do that $1100... -

Rear Hatch Stuck Closed!
Yeah, "warranty." I am out of "warranty," but no worries, as I have purchased the most expensive extended warranty that LR sells. Too bad it hasn't covered jack like the AC lines, or any wiring that might get wet. So, don't drive your LR in the rain, as it might void the warranty! I am... -

Rear Hatch Stuck Closed!
Thanks Adam, Yeah, I have tried this like a hundred times, pushing and pushing. I can hear the mechanism trying and trying, but nothing. -

Rear Hatch Stuck Closed!
I can't open my rear hatch. I can hear the lock trying to fire when I touch the button, but it wont open. Any ideas? -

Just to be clear, the dealer didn't blame anything on the rock sliders, they just act like it is a pain in their ass to remove them. Yes, I have another guy to do work on the LR3, but I had it in there because I do have a crappy Land Rover warranty. I should have just told them to pack it... -

Yes. It was the best one that they had. Of course, now they act like they have nothing to do with this 3rd party extended warranty company. -

Land Rover is obnoxious.
They told me that had to drop my rock sliders to get to them. Of course, extra charge for that. I mean, the guy at the last rally took all of 1 hour to install them in the first place. How hard could it be to take out a few bolts and drop it? -

Land Rover is obnoxious.
So I took my LR3 into the dealer for "warranty" work because the airconditioner wasn't working. I bought the $3000 extended warranty a few months ago - what a joke that is. So on the first trip they put in some dye to find the leak, and I am supposed to drive it around for 2 weeks. Fine... -

lr3 transmission problem
I just got back from a trip to Florida and back. I noticed that occasionally, on the highway if I am cruising and let off the accellerator to coast a bit, and then accellerate again, I get this hesitation before it "catches." It didn't do it all the time, but it was slightly unnerving. -

Rack suggestion...
If you have a canoe or Kayak you might want to check out the Thule Hullivator. Unfortunately it only works with Thule's cross bars that extend out past the tracks. -

Anyone have to have this replaced on their dime? If so how much? Thanks! -

Changing Diff/transfer case fluid
Brake Fluid Flush. I found a place to do it all for $350 plus parts max. -

Non-dealer electronic installations can void warranty
As you say, Magnuson-Moss puts the burden on LR to show that the modification caused the failure. Same with maintenance items. -

Changing Diff/transfer case fluid
Anyone do this? I am being told that I need to do this in order to qualify for the extended warranty. For that, plugs, and airfilter, they want $1650. Thoughts? -

Are the doors locked?
Mine stopped locking the passenger rear door. They fixed it under warranty.
