Never said ALL had blinders on. Only the ones who won't accept any criticism of their prized vehicle. READ CAREFULLY PLEASE. I liked the Land Cruiser. I'm not a Land Cruiser basher. Please quit twisting things that way. Makes me think some of you were an "only child" . Its well known many of...

Wow, I've got every one stirred up on this one. Like I've said before, it wasn't flood damaged and it came from a reputable used car dealer. The dealership owner actually had been driving it for about a year. I have the carfax to prove it. He wouldn't risk his license just to sell one vehicle...

I agree, most don't have all the problems I had . Didn't want to leave that impression. Most will have SOME of them though. My point though is that they do have problems and they are not the magical rides sprinkled with fairy dust that some people would have you believe. They are machines and...

how do you post pictures on this forum? I thought I remembered doing it before and it was easy. Now I can't

I don't think anyone would argue Rovers suck on this forum.

Actually it is a broken recording of a cowbell.

So that's what that fishy smell was? Expediton has been flawless so far. No TPS issues, no electrical failures, no exploding differentials, rattling sunroofs, $2000 master cylinder failures, starter failures, exhaust manifold failures. Should I go on? Hey, I know they all break. I'm merely...

Yep, damaged it I bet.

Why not just go to a dealer and see one. They haven't changed that much over the years.

Yes, left wife and 3 kids stranded THREE times in six months. TPS, alternator, then starter contacts. Well once they were only stranded at home. Does that count? I got a lemon obviously.

. Sounds like you are in good hands. Hope that works for you.

The intermittent nature of your problem makes me think it might be an electrical/solenoid issue rather than a mechanical one. I'm no transmission expert, but I am an electrician who specializes in troubleshooting and I've learned a bit about cause and effect over the years. If the problem was...

http://autorepair.about.com/library/faqs/bl555h.htm Did you see the metal shards. I know some is normal, hence the magnet. Kind of scary when they can't tell you for sure isn't it.

A friend bought a 99 Range Rover the same week I bought my 99 LC. This was six months ago. Well mine broke down three times since and his is still going strong. Go figure! Am I the unluckiest guy in the world or what? Or maybe he's just the luckiest. That said, I'd still never buy a Land Rover...

Welcome to the club. My 99 LC had numerous problems at 66k miles that left me feeling a little dissapointed with it. It had the famous throttle position sensor issue as well as several other things that would strand you. The TPS sensor can leave you suddenly without any throttle while driving...
