I wanted more up-to-date car reliability information that included actual repair rates. So in late 2005 I started getting people together to make this possible. TrueDelta now updates actual repair frequencies, not just dots, four times a year, to track cars closely as they age.
We've had good participation by LR3 owners, and have been providing reliability stats for it for a while now. I'd like to do the same with the LR4. Just a matter of getting enough owners involved.
Participants simply report repairs the month after they occur on a one-page survey. When there are no repairs, they simply report an approximate odometer reading four times a year, at the end of each quarter.
To encourage participation, participants receive full access to all results, not just those for the LR4, for free. I'll share results, once we have them, in this thread after each update.
For the details, and to sign up to help out:
