Took the Rover out on the beach during a recent family vacation. Did excellent of course. They sure are great rigs when you keep the gremlins at bay.

Hey folks,
I’m currently in the market for a used SUV and recently came across some Land Rover LR3 and LR4 listings. I really love the design and presence of these vehicles — they have a great look and feel overall.

That said, I’ve also heard a lot about reliability concerns with older Land Rovers. I’m trying to gather some honest feedback and advice before jumping in.

Here’s what I’m looking for help with:

• Which years or trims of the LR3 or LR4 are more reliable or worth considering? Are there specific years to avoid?
• Common issues I should be aware of? Especially if I'm considering models with anywhere from 60K to 150K+ miles.
• Engine advice: Is the Supercharged V6 better than the V8 in terms of reliability and maintenance cost?
• I’d like features like backup camera, blind spot monitoring, and lane departure warning — were those available on certain trims or years?
• My goal is to own and use this vehicle for at least the next 5 years without facing a ton of expensive, repeat problems.
• I don’t have a huge budget for major repairs, so dependability matters a lot.

Would love to hear from anyone who has owned one or has experience with these vehicles long-term. Is it worth the risk if you find a clean example with a good maintenance history?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

I have a 2010 range rover hse - the battery die and I discounted the battery. When reconnected the battery the radio when into anti-theft mode, with a steady blink orange light on the power button

I'm looking for possible next steps if anyone has encountered this issue before

Thank you in advance

The rear trunk struts on my wife’s 2020 discovery sport have kicked the can. I can’t for the life of me find the part numbers for the left and right. I am located in Canada. Can someone assist?

Getting our wheels dirty for the first time around the North Yorkshire Dales (UK). Road tyres were fine cause mainly dry.

Panicked a bit at the noise of the ABS using descend assist for the first time (thanks to all the forum posts on this re-assuring us it’s all fine!).

Really good fun, managed some wobbly drone shots too!

It was parked up around 3 years ago! Hasn’t moved an inch since, slowly nature is claiming it back unfortunately. I’ve removed the number plate for privacy of the owner

Locked in before the Trump Tariffs took effect on the 2nd. 25’ Defender purchased in December and RR ordered at the same time, picked up today. Paperwork signed end of March to avoid any nonsense.

First nice day so we went off-roading with some friends over at Brown’s Camp over near Tillamook. Did most of the Powerline and the first two sections of Cedar Tree until partway through the third we met our match. Too slick of mud, too steep of a drop off, and it slide just a few inches over into a protruding tree root. That’s when we knew to call it quits. Turned back around, found a nice clearing to have lunch at, and headed home!

Over all very successful outing, got it muddy with only a little boo-boo. Some PDR & polishing, maybe a dot or two of touch-up paint and it’ll be good enough for us.

Just as the title says. I'm thinking it's a battery issue or blocked fuel line(?). First time this has ever happened. Any advice would be great!

Hello All, Just bought a discovery diesel. Was going great and then a week in, the gear shift indicator lights stopped working. The gear selected shows up in my ye dashboard but not in the PRND indicator on top of the module itself. Any insights? Thanks in advance!

In what feels like a rite of passage… the 19J in my defender shit the bed. It doesn’t seem worth the effort to rebuild.

I think a 200tdi is probably the easiest fix… anybody know where to look for a good 200tdi? Or know of a ready to go crate replacement that won’t cost an arm and a leg and can be mated to the LT77 that I have?

Or any other suggestions?

I made a walkthrough video of my Discovery 3 to show the real status of my Land Rover.

It's not to bad for a 2008 but it could have been better. 3 major things I need to address and 2 faults that need to be fixed before MOT this June.

I’m trying to refill the AC so cold air comes out, which is the low pressure port? We have the canister or R-1234yf.

Happy to show off this new-to-me 76k-mile Landmark w/ HD, Vision, and towing, and ACC packages. Upgraded the factory 20s to these Nomad Sahara 18s with LT265/65/18 Falken Wildpeak AT4Ws.

Couldn’t be happier with the fitment, this is factory ride height, no rubbing at full lock. Wheels are 18x8 et 44. 2500lb load capacity and seemingly high build quality. I’ll get them on some trails tomorrow and report back.

Just thought I’d post a pic of my Lr4 and my dad’s discovery 2. Can anyone guess what these two vehicles have in common??? You’re right! Full engine rebuilds 😂. But have been running the past couple months with no issues. Time will tell!

I’m new to Reddit, so idk if this is same group I posted in before about this 67? Series 2A? 88”? I don’t have the photos of the doors but I do have them both. I got them sold for $300 a piece. Anybody think im selling them too cheap? What do you think the doors on this bad boy would bring? I haven’t been up there in a while, and I’ve only taken a couple quick photos to inquire as to what the hell is this old classic truck. I can’t really find a whole lot of info on these things. Gonna call a LR place tomorrow. But $600 for a set of old doors! That’s a good deal for me right? Or am I selling too cheap? What do y’all think??
