Great car if you like high pitch whistles

I bought a 2015 LR4 in March, and thought I would share some information with prospective buyers. Land Rover USA has admitted that their is a problem in the air conditioning system of the 2015 LR4s, a problem that causes a high pitched whistle to be emitted from the dashboard area whenever the air conditioner is on (as it often is if you live in texas). Land Rover says this is a "characteristic" of the 2015 LR4s, and have offered no fix for the problem. If you are considering purchasing an LR4, I would seriously reconsider, until Land Rover has a fix for this issue. Though the dealership has tried, they have been unable to fix the problem, and my car has spent over 40 days in the shop since I purchased it. Update: car was in shop 100 days in 2 years and I had to hire a lawyer in order to have car declared a lemon. I will never drive a Land Rover again, and I highly recommend no on else drive one either. LR was terrible to deal with, was not concerned about me as an owner.

Solid, secure, cocoon environment for driver, passengers/family members. Great dependability albeit pricey to repair (annually or for brakes when needed) and you'll stop for gas more frequently. Goes over rough patches, through water, and across uncharted terrains with confidence. A stately, impressive machine.

6 Years, 151,000+ miles and still looking new

The LR4 is a great performer both on and off road. It's been is deep mud and on steep slopes. Of the hundreds of off-road adventures, it got stuck only once on a steep grade of deep gravel stone, which was to loose and deep to get traction. I've towed a 22-foot, ~6,000 pound boat thousands of miles without an issue (though mileage went down to 11 mpg on average). On normal highway travel, I've gotten as high as 22 mpg (flatland in the summer with no load or passengers). Otherwise, I usually get 19 mpg on the highway and 15.5 mpg city. Have $$$ ready as repairs after warranty are stupid costly. The bushings on the lower front control arms had to be replaced at ~90K miles (replaced both lower control arms myself and had re-aligned for ~$350). The water pump went out along with a plastic part under valve cover at ~135K miles ($1,100 at a non-dealer shop specializing in Land Rovers, dealership quoted $1,600). The stitching on the front seats broke on a seam and was re-sewn at ~145K miles ($225). The exterior finish looks impeccable. The interior, aside from the stitching, also looks impeccable. Changing the oil takes 15 minutes and brake jobs are also easy for DIYers. My twin daughters will be driving this vehicle in 3 years from now as the LR4 super safe. I was rear ended by a Toyota Camry...totaled that car and only $1,200 of replacement plastic on the LR4's rear bumper. There's a limited selection of tires for the 19" rims. Continental Terraincontact A/T are the best by far.

2016 Land Rover LR4 HSE LUX 4dr SUV 4WD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

I’ve owned a 2016 HSE LUX Heavy Duty package LR4 for over 2 years. Have had only one issue with it (upper control arm bushings) at 45k miles which was covered by CPO warranty. The Good: The interior is great, fit and finish is very well done. Stereo is really good for a stock system. The Ride (Air Suspension) best ride around for a large SUV/truck Off Road Capability is some of the best around PERIOD! Interior, the use of space, rear tail gate (great for sitting on), second and third row seats that fold flat! Best usable interior in an SUV. Stadium seating for rear rows, rear seats large enough for adults let along children. Rear Skylight, perfect for rear passengers and dog owners. Rear Heated seats and rear climate control including the third row. Fridge in center console (Heavy Duty Package only) Driver Ads, off road drivers settings Camera’s Ladder box frame LR accessories for your life style, also the available aftermarket support of parts/accessories. Performance, not slow (V6 Supercharged) for a large vehicle. 8 spd transmission with paddle shifters that allow you to select the gear you want. Best driving position, great visibility from the drivers seat (greenhouse), very few if any blind spots. Tow’s really well. The Bad This is not a soccer mom’s SUV, however people like to use them. I’m sure because of some of the advantages I outlined above, but LR4’s are never going to be a Ford Explorer/4Runner. A vehicle that weighs this much is going to have parts that wear, need to be attended to and can cost to repair if you don’t have a warranty or do the work yourself it can be more then what some are used to. But that’s shouldn’t scare people, just understand what your buying (a real off road people and gear hauler). It’s a shame that most people only write about a car when something is wrong, never when they are happy enjoying ownership, it’s just how things go! Gas Milage, not good I average 13-17mpg Nav Unit, not great, slow but it works. The Ugly The fact that TaTa changed the Disco so much, instead of building on its strong points. Not a fan of the new one. Interior is updates are super nice but that where the compliments ends. Conclusion: This is the best family car I’ve had, sure there are things I’m not stoked with, but the “good” far, FAR outweighs the bad! These are becoming hard to find clean with the right options/milage/etc. grab one if you can, look for one with a solid history/ownership.

Solid SUV with No Issues for 7 Years

When Ford bought Land Rover, they drove the brand into the ground. Tata saved Land Rover, Range Rover and Jaguar from being destroyed by Ford. The second year that Tata took over Land Rover they resurrected the 2012 LR4 and created a solid, well thought-out, well-engineered and PROBLEM-FREE SUV that has served my family well for 75,000+ miles. While many speak about all the problems their LR3 had, they are talking about the pre-Tata buy-out when Ford almost drove 3 brands into the ground. Tata-owned Land Rover has been absolutely solid in our experience.
