riott, when you have an after market "anything" that is loose, you are much more at risk for it to be stolen. I'm not sure if you have yours attached in some way but I would have to lock it up when I left my vehicle.
 
So, there are pluses and minuses for having after market equipment. Just be careful leaving it in the LR3.
 
I happen to have the built-in navigation and I think all my future cars will have it whether it be built-in or portable.
 
Happy motoring! Mark

some pictures of the LR3 HSE in the recent North California snowstorms ... see top and bottom of page. Again, I highly recommend the Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snow as your next tire of choice... great for highway and snow, as you can see.

30 K mile update by koesler

I'm also at 30,000 miles with no troubles so far. The 05 LR3 HSE has been absolutely a joy to own. I'm still on my OE tires and they look like they're good for another 10 K. I did have have them dismounted from the wheels and turned around because the inside edges were wearing more than the outsides. My mileage, with 89 octane and Oklahoma "winter" gas is down to 17 avg. (used to get 19).
 
I'm glad to hear that the 19" Pirelli tires work - I'm thinking about those also, when the time comes this summer - wonder how they'll be on just dry pavement?
 
Good luck to all of you with your Rovers.

2005 LR3 HSE brake pads warning light on by outdoorsman1

I have 23 859 miles on the vehicle, the brake pads warning is on in the message center. Has anyone ever had brake pads go this early? I do go off road from time to time, I pull a utility trailer several times with no more that 2000 lbs in it...

Hi macc24,
 
Thanks for the link on the GPS DVD. I assume it's the same DVD since 2005... Anyone know when an updated one will be available?

flashing low gear light-cant get out of low gear by jbird88
Feb 26, 2008 (11:14 am)

Hi, I just bought a 2005 LR3 SE with 24k and as I started the vehicle the low gear indicator is flashing and I can't select highway mode. I had to select command shift in order to drive it home and now to the dealer. They have reset and updated the software, but that still hasn't fixed the problem, and they are still working on it today (2)days total so far. I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else, and what should I do about an extended warranty? I have always heard, once an electrical problem (if this is the case) goes bad, then it's almost never resolved. Any ideas or help?

I never had that problem gear light. As far as the extended warranty, I would see getting it as a must. The manufacturer warranty will end in December 08, I plan on keeping for vehicle for a while, I will extend it for sure. So far, I've had $7K warranty job done on the LR3. Still love the vehicle, but expensive to maintain.
 
My two cents.
