    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...

    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?

    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...

    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?

    Lr2

    So I drop off the LR3 for the new steering wheel, speaker repair, and warranty inspection, and they give me this loaner LR2. It has one of those goofy keys that you stick in a slot, and then push this other button to turn the car on and off. It kind of reminds me of the days when companies...

    Extended Warranty for 4 grand. Should I get?

    I have 48,000 miles. Have to decide before 49,000. Truck is 2.5 years old. I can add 3 years and to 100,000 miles for a little under $4,000. Sounds pricy, but I am sure LR3 repairs will be pricy as well. I am sure I will stay with the truck as I have the winch, rock sliders, and a little...

    Expedition Roof Rack Questions...

    With the rack installed, is the sunroof still operable? Is the rack bottom solid or does it allow light into the three sunroofs?

    Are my differentials working properly?

    In every mode but Rock Crawl, I show two unlocked green padlocks. In Rock crawl in low I can lock the transfer case. Also, someone is saying that they can manually lock the rear by pressing the right paddle back a second time. I can't seem to get that to work. On Saturday, I turned off...

    LR3 Offroad Wheels/Tires

    So far, this is what I have found available in the US. On ebay, there are these 17" LR3 rims that supposedly fit 235/70 17. Too bad no one makes an off road tire in that size. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43957&item=7952456484&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW I...

    Offroad First Impressions....

    Took the LR3 to the trails for the first time yesterday: http://www.pbase.com/jzk/land_rover_lake_geneva_march_05&page=all I am a novice at best. I have done some offroading in Colorado with my old Durango. The LR3 takes some learning. I found myself in the wrong mode wondering what was...

    Film to protect headlights...

    I saw this on eBay and was wondering if it is worth it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7958606131&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT Then today, I stopped by the LR dealer to get my plates, and this range rover pulls in behind me in the service line. He has...

    Brake controller....

    I noticed that my LR3 wiring kit has a 7 pin connector. One of the pins on a 7 pin controller is for the brakes. Does that mean that when I apply my brakes that the trailer will brake also? Or, do I need a controller? If the LR wring kit with the 7 pin connector does not cause the trailer...

    Airconditioning problem....

    Yesterday it got up to 60F here. Thus, the inside of the truck became too hot when sitting in the sun. We drove 15 minutes to lunch, but with the dials in the coldest position, I could not get the system to cool the inside of the vehicle. My Audi had a little trouble in that scenerio - when...

    Off Road Tire/wheel recommendation....

    So I am thinking about getting a set of wheels/tires for offroad use. What size should I pick? Do I want to stick with 255, or go narrower/wider? How about 255/85-16? Any thoughts? Thanks.

    Yoke size on drive shaft....

    Does anyone know what size Yoke we have on our drive shafts? I am looking into a custom remco disconnect system, so that I can flat tow the LR3. Thanks.

    Anyone know how to Flat Tow the LR3?

    When I went searching for vehicles, it was important to find one that had third row seating (another baby on the way) and that it be able to be towed 4 wheels down behind a motorhome. I currently have a Kia Sportage that I really only use for Motorhome trips, as it is cheap, light, and towable...
