    The Bong is once at 39 to warn of potential bridge freezing, and 32 to confirm everything is frozen. It does not bong "up", unless in Colorado or California.

    Maintenance Question (2006 LR3 115,000 miles)

    On the air strut seals, I did rebuilt my air struts, and replaced the dampers with Koni FSDs. They have a softer ride. When completed, I did notice a snappier lift on the air suspension. I 2nd the notice that the air dryer should be replaced/reconditioned from time to time, which would have the...

    Highest millage LR3

    I guess I've got a ways to go. At a mere 129k. Last year I completely rebuilt the suspension, replaced all bushings, suspension arms, rebuilt the air struts, replace both front CV joints, and replaced front and rear wheel bearings, etc. I've done my front and rear diffs, changed the transfer...

    Maintenance Question (2006 LR3 115,000 miles)

    It would be a smart move to replace the belts, tensioners and pulleys at this stage. You can keep the old ones for spares.. The transmission fluid should be changed every 60k miles, transfer case every 60k miles and the differentials every 30k miles. The compressor may help, but the actual...

    Land Rover LR3: A Cautionary Tale

    I would suggest identifying a good independent LR or competent shop if you don't plan on doing your own work. You should be able to order your own parts at lucky8llc.com or british4x4outfitters.com and others at a substantial savings. Good advice on the transmission, you can reduce the costs...

    LR3 Clunk? Not controls arms...

    Clunks & Noises can be very very tricky to diagnose. From my experience it's better to just replace all the bushings, or upper lower suspension arms. You could have a driveshaft carrier bearing going or something else. When you get the alignment after having changed this stuff, you should also...

    Another LR3 problem - park brake fault

    I know of an outfit that will build you a 200 amp alternator. It's about 499.00 though, they have to use two alternators to build it, at least that's what I understand. They definitely know what they're doing.

    LR3 Cracked Alpine Roof Glass

    Ya, and don't use it for a ladder either.... :drool: check with Justin @ lucky8 he may be able to save money on the roof, but you'll still end up dealing with shipping and finding an installer... so might be easier to let the dealer sort it. The dealer ordered mine, and when it finally came...

    LR3 Sliding load space floor for sale

    How far back does it slide? I'll be in Denver next weekend. I'm mildly interested. Does the load space mat fit on it, under it? What's involved in mounting / removing it?

    LR3 Cracked Alpine Roof Glass

    I just had mine replaced, the spiderweb was spreading too much. I found the glass online for as little as 650 new, + shipping. I ended up having it done at the dealer, who probably used a sub contractor (at least they can do something right). The total cost was 900 for the glass and 500.00 for...
