    LR3/LR4 owners: What height do you set your suspension?

    Normal hight for street and smooth gravel, +25 with iidtool for rougher stuff then +25 with offroad hight selected for hard obstacles and deep water. Offroad 95% of the times it's just in +25. This is with 275/65R18 BFG KO2s at 23-25 psi.

    Does the rep of "unreliable" still hold true?

    Yeah I did the rods myself, I just prefer genuine parts sometimes, all the control arms I did were from Atlantic British. I take it to Land Rover for alignment because I got an alignment when I changed the lower control arms but the large chain shop that did the alignment put around 2.0degrees...

    Does the rep of "unreliable" still hold true?

    Land Rover is an absolute rip off, they quoted me $1600 for new tierod kits, installation and wheel alignment. A wheel alignment is $200 at the dealer and parts were $346(What I ended up paying just for both tierod kit) So that is around $1000 in labor for a 40-60min job. My LR3 has been way...

    Best spark plugs for LR3 HSE

    I would never, ever leave a plug in a car for 60,000km let alone 100,000km. I do 25,00km max. In my Lotus I use Iridium IX I swap them every 10,000 but in that car it takes me 5 years to do 10,000km.

    LR4 spare tire options

    I have fitted a brand new KO2 275/65R18 in the factory mounting place under the car, I had to bend the heat shield a bit and let most the air out but I got it to fit. I have on board air so reinflating isn't an issue for me. Seeing as the KO2 265/60R18(30.5" diameter) is only 0.5" bigger than...

    Best spark plugs for LR3 HSE

    I use NGK BKR5EIX-11 in my LR3, easier to find and generally less than half the price of OEM Laser Iridium. I've used NGK Iridium IX plugs in all my cars and never once had an issue.

    Gap DII tool and changing Speed Values???

    It took me a while playing the tyre diameter size with the IIDtool to find one that didn't throw up speed sensor and locking out the cruise control with 275/65R18s. I can't remember off the top of my head what I've ended up at but I can check in the morning. I'm about 2-3mph out at 65mph now.

If you read other threads though...

    LR3 - new K02s

    I have no rub at all on the front at normal street hight with 275/65 Ko2s at full lock or not. The only rub I got is the little bumps of the front side of the rear wheel well liners, which I heat gunned out of the way. Offroad I run +30 using an IIDtool and only use the LR3s offroad hight in the...

    A new colab between Poler and Yakima spotted at Interbike which is a bicycle industry expo in Las Vegas. I can't find much other info about it other than these photos. Looks to have a few little updates on the original but nothing major.

    Mine randomly resets, turns off or stays putting out audio but no buttons work at all. I have the Harmon Kardon system with voice control and without bluetooth and phone. I have noticed that big temperature swings makes it happen quicker(eg cold mornings have the heater cranked or car parked in...

    LR3 Hitch Options?

    They currently don't have any stock but are in the process of making more, I was told about 2 weeks ago they will be ready in a couple of months. I have the long OEM one and cant but a bike on the inside rack of my bike holder because it the handle bars hit the window. I can't understand why...
