Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order
The Tundra has the 3.4l TTV6 since the 2022 model year and redesign. It no longer has the V8. There have been a few reports of some bearings spinning at around 20k miles. -
LR4 Accessories and Parts. XLifter, Trailer Wiring Harness, Etc.
Going to be selling my LR4 soon. Will probably have more parts and accessories for sale in the future, but for now I will list the things I bought but never got around to installing. First is the XLifter. Here is the thread on this forum regarding the XLifter... -
Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order
Hinted around at it in another thread, but I went ahead and put a $1k deposit on a Land Cruiser. It's refundable, so if I don't like it I get the money back, but I have a feeling I'm going to like it. Supposed to be here between the end of May or early July. It's the 1958 Edition, which I... -
New engine noise
I just ran a carfax on my own vehicle to see what it says before I put it up for sale. There are things I had done at a mechanic or the dealer that do not register on the carfax report. For example, about 3 years ago I had a local indy replace both my crossover pipes, the water pump... -
Mystery Headlamp Bulb
This is not your headlight housing if yours is a 2014. That's a headlight housing for a 2010 to 2013. The years on that manual are wrong for us-spec LR4s. In the US, the headlights changed for the 2014 model year. -
Mystery Headlamp Bulb
In a 2014 or newer, the high and low beams are the same bulb. There is no other high beam. The 2013s and previous used two different bulbs. I have no idea where you got the other bulb from, but it looks like a turn signal bulb. -

Still not 100% that's the way I'm going just yet. If you asked me a few weeks ago, I was eyeing the new Defenders. There is some Land Cruiser hype right now and a lot of dealers are seizing the opportunity to pocket a $10k markup. The dealers who aren't marking them way up have their first... -
Lr4 Brakes
There are different rear pads for the 2012s and older and 2013s and newer. https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/lr4-brakes.21542/page-27#post-246532 -

Maybe. I dunno. I've had mine since early January of 2016. Just ready for something different. Just at that point in my life where I don't have as much time to maintain vehicles and enough money to buy something new. Local Toyota dealer has an unclaimed 1958 edition Land Cruiser coming in a... -

I'm planning on selling mine in the next few months. This will be a decent barometer for me. https://carsandbids.com/auctions/3oZLz579/2011-land-rover-lr4-hse This one does not look to have the timing chain guides done, though. And it's a year older than mine. Similar mileage, though. -
Front Control Arm Replacement on LR4 and saw a warning light come on
If it's way out of alignment, there's a steering sensor that raises a fuss. -
Cable hanging down (damaged) from my rear passenger wheel well (Update: Resolved!)
If your old pads never wore to the point that the sensor went off, there's no reason to change the sensor. That said, if you paid for it to be changed... it should have been changed. Looks like they forgot to reconnect it to the brake pads when they buttoned everything back up. So now you... -
Suspension Fault When Parked on Incline
I had the same code. Turned out my exhaust sensor (top of the compressor) got unplugged. I'd start by checking you have the right compressor firmware. If you do, next step is to pull the compressor and see if you have a wiring issue. -
Looking for thoughts on leak under engine block
If you can't even tell what fluid this is, it's going to be really difficult for us to help. -
Engine disassembly after going ****
It's notorious for having a bad crankshaft, which wasn't the problem here. Christian (the guy on LRTime) did a masterclass in the problems with the TDV6 on a prior video on that channel. Long story short, his theory is that JLR wanted to use this engine in so many different vehicle models...
