I just purchased a LR3 with the V8 4.4 and what a beast! I am close to my first oil change and I am thinking of using Liqui Moly Special Tec 5W-30. I used Liqui Moly for my previous car and it was great.
Reviews of spare parts for Land Rover
If my customers choose aftermarket, I always get
380mm centric high carbon rotors
Centric posi-quiet ceramic brakes.
The centric rotors are the absolute best bang for your buck.
I find paid results in comebacks, and oddly enough I get a lot of comebacks when I use brembo brake pads and rotors (they are 100% a different formulation than the land rover brembo OEM spec)
I’m using a BlackVue 900. I had it professionally installed in 2018 and it’s still working flawlessly. Apart from the sound it makes when it starts it’s unnoticeable when in the car. Only regret I have is where the battery unit (optional extra) is mounted underneath the passenger glove box. It makes a bit of noise due to the trim not being up to holding the weight.
If you want brand recommendation choose Valvoline Extended Protection 5w-20 every 4k miles.
I would recommend the Castro Edge PROFESSIONAL 0w-20. Been using it in my wife’s LR4 since we got it and it was the consensus on best oil when I first did my research. It’s a little pricey but we’ve had zero engine issues with this.
For the LR4 equipped with the TDV6 or SDV6 engine (Ford Lion), it is specifically 5W-30 C1 here in the United Kingdom. That's Land Rover's recommendation.
Depends on the model. I’ve had some great experience with Pirelli Scorpions and the P Zero. Usually not my brand of choice but if nothing is available and they are I’ll run them. Definitely more of a Michelin PS2/C type for my sport cars though. I’m about 3k miles into a set of PZero 21” on my LR Discovery. They handle the weight of the vehicle and road conditions really nice, so far have no complaints.
I had Michelle's on my 1990 landrove discovery . Great in rain. Drove like it was dry out. Replace with contintels. Didn't like them.
Our CrossClimates after being fitted mid-2020. The outers are at 3mm, and the inner 4mm. Over 30k miles. Seems acceptable to me. Ours are on a Freelander 2/LR2, so a relatively heavy vehicle.
My experience with the Cooper AT3:
2011 Land Rover LR4. I Put about 50k miles on the set in 2 years. No punctures.
* Excellent on road manners
* Quiet, smooth.
* Even tread ware
* AWFUL (I.E. not safe) Snow and ice performance
* Poor mud traction, poor gravel traction, mehh wet traction.
