Shmaa Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 09, I've had it less than a year, about 10K miles. Had to replace a parking sensor for $25 and it gets 13mpg.. Needed something to tide me over until the new raptors come out, but I really like this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should totally buy one, they hold up great once the miles rack up. http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1212/4798801/9950206/412127333.jpg http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1212/4798801/9950206/412127332.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the full size one. We need the third row seating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Maker Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'm a little confused, is that at IG on; trouble light check. Or is that all of the current issues in the car? Maybe my internet sarcasm meter is broken right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geeto67 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 It's idling, but yes, all those lights are pretty normal for a Rover. Are there two lights for the parking brake? I see a brake light under the temp gauge and a park light in the speedo. Or is that one for the parking brake and one to tell you the brakes are broken? Edit: never mind I am an idiot, the speedo is probably the gear selector indicator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Maker Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Red "Park" is the parking brake light. Yellow "Brake" is a brake system trouble light (pad wear, low brake fluid, ABS trouble code). But what's the funky one on the left under the tachometer? Danger, car surfing (or maybe actually the air ride system)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe my internet sarcasm meter is broken right now. Everything is broke. It's been through a few air ride components, multiple sensors, etc. You only get a few months with no Christmas tree. To the junkers credit, it has aftermarket brakes, pulley, tune, intake, and long tubes :lolguy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeto67 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 what's the idiot light all the way to the left in the tach that looks like an upside down hover car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewtoys Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 what's the idiot light all the way to the left in the tach that looks like an upside down hover car?

Geeto67 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 As an owner of an Italian vehicle I can sympathize. I know the OEMs seem to be loving air suspension right now but to me it just does not seem to be a long term option for the amount of miles and time period people are owing cars these days. I mean at the end of the day they are rubber bags exposed to the elements, that alone makes them a replacement service item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the lx470, not a thing. Semi trucks have air suspension so I'm not written them off yet. But I do know what you're talking about. A blown shock just make your car ride horrible. A blown air suspension will leave you stranded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-Mart Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 I've been trying to decide between a range rover and a cayenne. I really like the way the range rover sports look and very familiar with the BMW motors that come in them. It seems to be the consensus that the cayennes are more reliable though, even the turbos. Decisions decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 The turbo cayenne is he most reliable of all the cayennes. I wouldn't look at any other model C unless it's a turbo. And regarding the RR. The engine and trans aren't the issue with them. It's the electronics that plague the platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Mart Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Annoying things or things that make the car not drivable? I have an E60 5 series and it had some electric quirks I chased down, but it was annoying stuff not immobilizing stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 If you seriously want a RR, and are willing to piss away 40k, just lease one... YOU DON'T WANT TO OWN ONE Completely agree. I really like range rovers but if you're going to spend a chunk of money might as well lease and protect yourself from the huge maintenance costs. I'm assuming you've checked out other comparable SUV's? A good friend of mine just leased a new Jeep Grand Cherokee, nice ride but again there's the issue of used reliability.

C-Mart Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 I like the new grand Cherokees, but I wouldn't be excited to drive one. X5 is another option. Turbo Cayennes seem decently reliable despite a few known issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Had our ecoDiesel Grand Cherokee Overland for a year, been good so far. And with the torque of the ecoDiesel it's pretty fun to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Mart Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Diesel would be interesting I will look into those. Anywhere other than Craigslist/Ebay to look for the Cayenne turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
