    Interesting you should suggest to try change that parameter... I have been communicating with Patrick (at GAP) today, and he suggested trying that parameter. My original value is 31, and I would have thought I would need to increase it to the actual tire size used - mine are now 32. But, it...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    As spindle I believe we used the HD version from here: https://www.comp4x4.com/collections/tire-carrier-hinges/products/tire-carrier-hinge-kit-heavy-duty-1-3-4-spindle-shaft Build pictures can be found earlier in the thread - probably late March, early April 2016... Edit: Looks like it starts...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    Since there has been a few PMs asking for details on the tire carrier I figured I will just post a bunch of pictures with dimensions here. Keep in mind that every one is a one off, and tack pieces into place using a level etc. Don’t just weld pieces together on the ground. If I had to redo it...

    Patrick at support used to always reply promptly and be super helpful. He gave me access to beta releases of firmware with the understanding that it might not be fully stable. As an engineer I was fine being a bit of a guinea pig and then have access to some advanced/early new features, etc...

    Nice work! BTW, checked this morning on fwy, and at 70 mph, my speedometer shows 3 mph too low as well, even with 406mm setting :( So either LR does not accommodate that large a deviation from stock in their software, or the iidtool is still buggy...

    I wish GAP would clearly document which functions are tested and verified on which vehicles... maybe they have, but I just can't find it. And, that we had a manual documenting all the car configuration features. If you go to live values on the iidtool, you will see a list of validated and a...

    Thanks! That would be the 394 mm option, if I recall correctly. That sounds pretty much where I am at in terms of being off. Though, I don't seem to be able to get to the real speed. You are off by a little less than 5% - you should get correct speed by changing it to 411 mm...

    2012 LR4 Overland Project - Build Journal & Blog

    Ok. I updated to latest release which is 3.00.00 Build 2530 - no difference. I also have access to Beta versions from GAP Diagnostics and just tried 3.00.00 Build 2559 - setting it to 394mm or 406mm (275/65-18 is my tire size) still shows about 1 mph too low at 35 mph. Enabled digital speed...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    I spent the weekend taking off my OEM (cosmetic) "sliders" that were a bit bent up after Elephant Hill and Bobby's Hole last summer in the Needles District of Canyonlands as well as a few other trips with squeezes. They had clearly done some duty, but don't really seem built for even light duty...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    You have to dremel out "unnecessary" support material on the back. The opposite side of the sunroof switch has the microphone for the handsfree operation. I wanted to keep my sunroof operational although I have only ever opened it once - after this modification to ensure it still works :) I...

    Thanks for the pointers! Yes, doing it all with MacBook and iPhone as well. Sounds like steps I have gone through, but I will try mess with it some more... probably been about 8 months since I checked for and installed firmware updates for the tool.

    Thanks. Yeah, wonder if some software is not up to date on car or tool, or if mine being a 2010 somehow deviates. Will try again, but I left it in the changed setting so not sure what else to do...

    Sure about that? I tried on my LR4, and it makes zero difference to the speedometer reading on my car. It continues to show 2-3 MPH too low at 70 MPH when compared to a GPS speed reading, but at least it does not immediately set off the CEL like it used to... lol... I have read it is working...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    The ground for each is at nearest rack bolt, the power runs from right rear to left rear inside top cross member (lift off rubber trim piece), and the two power wires are soldered together, and the single power wire runs forward inside the top left side rail of the roof rack, and then down under...

    Replace the passenger side window switch - 2006 LR3

    On an LR4 it looks like the door card has to come out: https://landroverforums.com/forum/lr4-38/2010-lr4-5-0l-v8-power-window-switch-69243/ The LR3 is likely the same, but don't know for a fact.
