These same step can work on your Range Rover and Range Rover sport, depending on the year.
First, you start off in off-road height with your vehicle running. Then, you place a block of wood under the frame and lower your LR onto the wood. Once, it hits the wood, the computer will think you're in trouble an activate extended mode. Then, you simply hold the brake pedal for 5 seconds while holding the height lever in the up position. This will put you into super extended mode.
Once, your Land Rover is in super extended mode you can continue driving off-road until you decide to go back to normal driving height.
You will gain roughly 2-3 inches of ground clearance. Super super extended mode is only reachable when the system thinks you are in trouble or if you jack up the frame to simulate and obstacle and the Land Rover will stay at the new height.

oxmanagain Will this work on a 2006 Land Rover LR3 6 cylinder
oxmanagain Do you know how I can keep my super extended mode on after 30 mph because for some reason my Dash says my vehicle will start to lower if I don’t slow my speed.
How could anyone dislike this guy. He loves his LR and it shows. Hell I could watch him review a toaster and be entertained. Keep it up man. I am making my way down your playlists. Thanks for taking the time to put these together. Oh... the music is groovy too.
Best comment to date. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know how you feel. Thanks for the support and you're welcome. Thanks.
Owning 1 I fully understand why he loves it this much. Every friend I gave a ride says "Wow this vehicle is so smooth"
he's in TRUMPLAND, it is that simple. sorry for dislikes Mr, it's a crackpot world
Thanks for your video but I didn't catch how to raise the car from 15 1/2 to 17 1/2. Could you please explain it better?
When i bought my D4 (almost 4 years back) I was taken by the tech and lots of other benefits. Believe it or not it was a lot cheaper than the Land cruiser 200 equivalent that had almost zero creature comforts - we get different specs in Australia. About a year ago I went with the family on holiday but had to leave them to do a work call in a place called Batemans Bay - I came across a firetrail and thought why not, as I do a fair bit of off-roading. It was a challenging track which I should not have been doing on my own but it was overall 7/10 snot so crazy. At the end and just before the sun went down I came to a mud whole (I was still on the OEM types then) and I got out, did the stick test etc and thought no worries......as soon as I got into the mud hole I just sank. I was far away from a town and it was about to get dark. I remember thinking what an idiot i was. Changed into Rock Crawl and tried to go forward and back - nothing. The alerts came up and I followed the instructions and the Disco went into extended mode. It still took a nerve racking 5 minutes or so to get through BUT I did get through. No land cruiser or jeep or hilux etc would have got through. I would have had to walk approximately 3 miles in the dark just to the next tarred road and seriously that would have just been the start. I know that Land Rovers correctly don't have a great reputation for reliability but frankly that episode convinced me that the guys that designed the air suspension knew what they were doing and for me it paid for itself.
Wow, I am glad your story turn out great. I agree the air suspension has come in handy many times. Thanks for watching and have fun driving.
“Which I should not have been doing on my own.” Then gets into butthole clenching trouble as sun is going down. Lol. Right there with you brother. It’s the 15 year old part of our brain that gets us into that situation, but it’s hella fun when you get out. My LR4 has not let me down yet either. Knock wood.
I knew about the "extended mode" in which the LR extends on its own to "extended mode" once it finds itself bottom out. But to get "super extended mode" I had absolutely no idea, wow I'v owned this car for the last 4 years & still learn something new.
So to clarify we have
1. access mode (it's lowest)
2. Standard height.
3. Off-road height.
4. Extended mode.
5. Super extended mode.
Thank you oxman for these great videos.
Then #6. Super Super extended mode, which once you are in Super extended mode the system will do it on its own if you are still hitting the bottom or your tire is off the ground. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the support. The Land Rover is an amazing vehicle with lots of surprises.
Your videos make me love my LR3 more. Super extended mode is a new word to me. Didnt even know it automatically raises on hitting an obstacle underneath
It’s official. Forget rover and the sport I’m getting the LR4.
After all my CZcams car research you’ve convinced me of the so called lesser of the three, let them tell it.
It’s bigger, stronger and ride just as smooth but without most of the issues. Right????
Ore you could simply buy the Australian made "Llams" Controller and wire it up (very simple installation - the most difficult part is drilling a hole somewhere to mount the switch - the rest is just plug and play). With this controller, you can simply dial up any height you want - and there are no restrictions on what speed you can travel at in any height - very handy for driving on long beaches or on dirt tracks with a high centre "hump" with the suspension raised to "off road" or higher, and being able to travel at a reasonable speed.
BM Australia Thanks I will look into that. I can see just where that would come in handy. Thanks again for the tip.
I’m about to get an LR3 I’m so hyped I’m reading about this information.
There's also Xlifter and Land Rover Passion sells another one
People who talks about damaging the CV Joints don't know how the system work. You can't drive in that mode, the extended mode is designed to help when the car is high center. As soonest you start moving faster than 5 miles per hour, the computer will lower the car to the standard mode. Great video showing what you can do with the air suspension of these cars.
Dude this looks so fun. I can't wait to try this when I get an L322 Range Rover sometime in like a year and half. Thank you!
I love how much wheel travel these things have. this is so interesting.
It is pretty amazing.
I have the same exact LR3 as you and I agree on all points. Probably the best set of videos on the trucks features. Good Job!
No one Thanks for the support and enjoy that Rover. Thanks again.
Note this mode is intended to help a grounded vehicle get off again, not really to be driven, on newer vehicles the rock crawl mode is the highest it can safely be driven, also bear in mind on road stability will be affected which is why they should drop down again automatically at higher road speeds
You're right because at 30 mph it will lower to normal height for safety.
oxmanagain exactly 👊🏻
I have almost exactly the same Discovery 3 style. Buckingham blue dark with darkened windows. I now have a problem with my misaligned suspension so I will try this to hopefully remedy the problem
I could watch you review a piece of paper lmao I’ve been watching all your videos and I went a purchased a 2006 lr3 and I just love it...keep it up brotha
Thanks.
Just Bought a l 2016 Land Rover Discovery TDV6 Auto 4x4 MY16.5 pick it up in a few days. Your vids are fantastic thank you so much.
This guy is brilliant, learned loads of stuff off him!
I appreciate your support and thanks for the compliment. What year is your Rover?
@@oxmanagain I’ve got a 2005 HSE. I’ve not had it for long and I keep getting problems. The moment I think I’ve fixed it it comes back. Your videos have provided me with some brilliant guidance tho!
Great video. However keep in mind you are putting your cv joints under a lot more stress than they were designed for, I wouldn't drive around like that for too long. Often when cvs break it's because the car is in super extended and someone floors it.
Another thing to consider is when you are up that high there is absolutely no suspension articulation. The wheels have been pushed down as far as they can go by the springs so when offroad it's not always best to go as high as you can.
TimeIV Thanks for watching and I appreciate the tips.This is why I love the comment section so much. Thanks.
The idea of this mode is just to get out of trouble. Vehicle lowers automatically when speed gets up at a very low speed
That height looks really good for your Disco! Now you have to ask wifey if you can buy some beefier tires to make it really stand out. Lol
JUKE179r I agree and thanks for the comment.
Useful for gaining some extra room for an oil change....? (With axle stands of course)
If you do that pull the fuse for the compressor so it doesn't decide to lower on you 😞
Hi,
Just subscribed to your channel I’ve got L/R disco 3 great delivery from yourself Will have to catch up with the rest of your video’s anyway thanks from Nick Liverpool, England
I'm about to pull the air bags off my 2007 range rover sport tdv6 and swap over to raised coilivers had enough of repairing this system the airbags have all been done 2 have gone again and the height sensors don't last long on uk roads they seize up over and over again
Love your videos, one question do you thing there is a way to flash/code the ecu/module to go to super extended mode without using the blocks of wood? Oh your video on how to clean/clear up the headlights with that cleaning kit saved me money on buying new headlights.
Have fun replacing air parts and motors, CV joints suspension parts ect. And good luck.
watched a few of your vids,top guy and very informative !
great that you give your time to help others etc,
greetings from stanwick england.
I appreciate all the support and thanks for the comment.
oxmanagain
No problem your welcome,I had a discovery 2 then sold it,wish I still had it, contemplating a discovery 3 here in the UK,cannot make up my mind !
Does anyone know what the approach breakover and departure angles are in extended and or super extended mode?
Love your Vids. Priceless info.
You can use jack that comes with the car you can at least adjust it i tried it and it worked awsome
That is a good idea,thanks for watching.
That’s a feature that is there in case the car gets grounded in either deep ruts or during rock crawl. You don’t need a jack or s piece of wood if you bottom out the car. Range Rover sports have the exact feature.
Hi.I have a D3 and my chassis is still in extended mode and no and no going back.What should I do.Thanks for the advice.
I just bought a 2008 lr3. Drives great. I drive it in normal height, but when I hit 55+ MPH, my suspension drops. I get the terrain light on the dashboard. What height level should I drive it in?
This is probably good for an oil change to get under the sump
With safety Jack stands perhaps. Otherwise suicidal.
Great stuff suspension should be fine as it’s stationary as I had mine jacked off the floor to change tyres and was this high even when back on the ground until you drive it a distance of 2 feet it goes back to normal so it should not do anything to the suspension as we all got to change tyres and in normal extended mode the car is designed for and might I add designed for rough off-road use at a nice slow pace love mine these climb anywhere you’ve just got to know how to drive them in whatever the condition is great vid
I agree with everything you said. They are amazing in the dirt, like you said they climb anything. Thanks for watching and have a good day.
I like your videos a lot. I get to learn so much. Do you know if air suspension needs to be turned off before mounting new tires? I am getting miixed answers between local shops and dealership. I own a Lr3 form the year 06.
The manual says to raise the Rover to offroad height when changing the spare. When I had new tires put on mine I raise it to off-road height.
@@oxmanagain Thanks a lot for getting back to me. Big help!!!
Dobrý den, máme ten samý rodinný vůz. Jste sympatický a zručný muž. S manželkou rádi sledujeme Vaše videa a dáváme like :-)
Děkuji vám za to, že jste mi dal tak krásný kompliment. Oceňuji vás také za pozorování. Vychutnejte si svůj Land Rover. Dík.
I've had my LR3 for years and had no idea thanks
Thanks for watching and I know the LR3 is amazing I still find new things all the time. Did you know about the key fobs features?
czcams.com/video/qukhk1lE5PA/video.html
oxmanagain not very much. I have to keys and both landrover bottons do something different. One unlatches the tailgate. And the other one lets me turn on and off the headlights and reverse lights.
Yeah, you can program that 3rd button to do a few things.
Me encanta tus videos
Agradezco su apoyo y les agradezco el cumplido.
I bought a land rover lr3 2005 at the Auction but I have a problem on it. System of. Terrain response control seems to be disconnected that says on the board, but and I can not lift the. Suspension is for some reason does not even just raise one side, check the lines and there are no leaks and the compressor works well some possibility that it is by terrain response control?
This is what is sound like the problem could be. Do a search for this part. lr3 terrain response control switch.
oxmanagain OK thanks do you know if there is a fuse or harness I mean appears disconnect? on the board so thats way I ask
You just pimped your ride lol very cool trick
Thanks haha.
I agree that would be cool if it stayed in super extended mode.
Looks cool, but really it's not required often and therefore unnecessary strain. Remember there are no diffs hanging down 4 inches like you see on most 4wds.
Hi could you please tell me when you put the first block of wood under and it raised it to “super raised mode” how did you raise it to “super super mode”? As for some reason I done everything as you did in the video but the 11&half inch block wouldn’t fit underneath it to raise it any further.
Great video thanks for uploading 👍
You want to first raise the Rover to off-road height then place the block under the frame. Lower the LR and when it hits the block it will go into extended mode. Next, hold the break pedal for 5 sec and the lever to raise the LR and then you go into Super extended mode. Thanks for watching.
oxmanagain thanks I done all that I thought it went higher than that with you saying “super super extended mode lol sorry my mistake 😂
Have a good day 👍
Thanks
Wow never seen a Landrover/rangerover raise so high, although considering how heavy the disco3 is, i'm sure a leak or two would spring up-- if they were the old struts-- from the air suspension system somewhere considering how much pressure was being exerted on the components just to keep it that high.
Good point, that is why I just put new front air struts on a few days ago. czcams.com/video/MKewfwiQbbg/video.html
No, not really. I replaced my struts at 200,000kms as preventative maintenance and the bags were like brand new. Only replaced for the new shocks. Failed air bags in the D3/D4 are extremely uncommon, does happen but not likely.
Count yourself among the lucky few who don't have problems with the air suspension on your landrover.
You're right I pretty much have had it good with the LR. Thanks again for watching.
Hmm we must be incredibly lucky seeing as I had a 3 and now a 4... I know the old style bags in the 2s had problems but they're a very different design to these struts. The compressor is only good for about 5-7 years if you're using it constantly for off-road use, small price to pay for the versatility though.
Has anyone tried driving in this "super extended mode"? I have an L322 with extended "lift rods" that make my "normal mode" about 2" higher than normal. When I then use "off-road" / raised height mode, I get loud pops from my front end at low speed. I suspect the noise is from my CV joints binding from the added angle to the front hubs sitting at over 5.5" taller than normal. Any ideas?
I was looking for this tip for a long time! I will try later on, Thank you. I would like to know if it is possible to unlock the 40 km/h speed limit in the lowest position. I think it's a good position for highway driving, more aerodynamic, you know. Thank you!
There's not a way to unlock it. But if you pull out the fuse that allows the vehicle to go up and down once you're at the desired height it will not lower. I made another video on how to diagnose your suspension problem and that's how I found out there's a fuse that disables the Rover from going up or down.
@@oxmanagain
@@oxmanagainik krijg mijn lr322 ook niet uit de extended mode ...weet u misschien wat het probleem kan zijn? groetjes
Any idea how to tow LR3? I have what I believe is the tow eye but cant see where to insert it should I need to tow
This is awesome but ultimately clearance can never be greater than the ground to the centre of the wheel rite ????
True. I will tell you this though, having the ability to go this high has helped me out in many situations.
Very good review. I liked it.
I appreciate the multiple views and what features of the remote is your favorite?
Excellent video....guauuu !!!
My 05 LR3 lets me put it into access mode while driving above 25. It's nice to drop it down on the highway. I'm 92.5% sure this didn't do this when I got it. It disables at 25 but will let me put it back in somewhere along the line.
That is a first for me hearing that.
I just got back from a joy ride and was testing it out. Offroad mode gives me a warning at 25 and turns off at 31 it looks like. Access mode will turn off at 25 but I can immediately put it back in. Only once it turned of at 45. If I'm over 25 and drop below it will go off when I go back over 25mph. I probably shouldn't mess with this. It's not just telling me it's in it is for sure going in.
Tomorrow I'm going to go see if you do it for me well I'm driving above 25 miles an hour.
@@thewanderingalbatross1061 Ok, so what is going on there, is that when you select access height while driving fast, you are really selecting a 'pending' lowering of the vehicle when you reach a slow enough speed. That is to say, it would be handy if you were going to arrive at an underground parking or your home garage, which has limited roof clearance etc. Alternatively, if you have elderly folks in the vehicle who would benefit from 'access height' upon arrival at the destination, you can just preempt that while you remember and select the lowered height in advance..
Will this work on 08 l322 range rover hse?
Love the vids keep em coming 🇬🇧
Gareth Haggerston I thank you for watching and I will do my best.
I will try this
I have used this while I was off-roading and it came in handy.
My discovery specialist mechanic tells me that placing the vehicle in super extended mode may put undue stress on the suspension pump
I'm not going to disagree or argue with point. Even though it was designed to go into that mode I can see we're over time it does put a lot of pressure on the system. Now with that being said I did replace my suspension pump it took me roughly 30 minutes and it cost less than $150. And that repair took place at 195,000 miles.
Question. How do you get it back to normal mode. I can't get it off the extended mode... Tried to reset my turning my LR3 off and on.
My land rover L3 don't raise at all can't i put regular shocks am thinking of buying a conversion kit At Amazon please let me know help
I have one of the last d4s made, my advice ,don't bother it's good enough as it is.
This is all stock.
Is it the same operation for ssem?
One time in my 2011 LR4, I got stuck when I was already in super extended mode, and after about 2 minutes of sitting on the rock, the rover went into super super extended mode by itself. Not sure if there is a way to manually select super super extended mode (other than using jacks) but it seems to me that only the computer can engage super super extended mode.
Once you go into the extended mode you can manually go to the next level by hold down the brake and push the height adjuster up for 5 seconds and you will hear a ding and then the Rover will rise again.
oxmanagain I know that, I’m saying that one time my rover went even higher than that by itself. It went to the same hight as when it has been jacked
Gotcha, thanks for the comment and enjoy that LR4.
Can it be the gear box oil temperature sensor
Cheers again.
So this is not permanent?
So your video just jumps from Super extended mode to super super extended mode. once you were in super extended mode did you drop the lr3 back down and hit the block again to get it to go back up into super super extended mode?
I started the video off in super super extended mode just to show how high you can get. Then I show how to go into extended mode then super extended mode. From off-road height, you lower the LR onto the block and then it bounces up to extended mode. Next, you hold the brake and the height selector in the up position for 5 sec and you go to super extended mode. To get to super super mode I lifted the LR with a jack and it stayed at that height. If you're off-roading the vehicle will go to that mode on its own if bottom out.
Thanks, I wondered what I had missed as well.
@oxmanagain at what moment did you use the Jack?
Did you have it on super extended mode, put the jack, lowered, waited for the bip, then pressed button to lift for 5 seconds?
Or did you simply raised the car with the jack and it stayed in place?
Amazing!! Very cool!
linharesvids Thanks.
Thank you, man. I always wondered about this... does all that come by factory? Or is it some mod? Keep them coming, your vids are awesome!
No, this is factory and I will do my best, Thanks, for the support.
Dude you are crazy but really dont get how did you make thr 2nd super super extended mode again hold brake and rise the car?
lujbav I raise it with a jack and it stayed up.
oxmanagain 😂 you gona put the jack in your boot aswell? 😂
B.Eduardo all cars have jacks in there car 🤣
my front will not raise up only the back will raise, what could cause that ?
If your front will not raise you could have a leak in the air strut or in the valve block. I just made a video that talks about how you fix both a few days ago.Here is the link. czcams.com/video/MKewfwiQbbg/video.html
Hey I just bought Lr3 and when I’m driving is showing air suspension foult 30 miles?
The issue might lie within your height selector.
I have bad suspension can I put regular shocks on my land rover L3. Will it ride the same
You can convert your air suspension into coilover suspension a lot of people do it. It won't ride as smooth but it will be a smooth ride. You will lose the ability to adjust the suspension it'll just be at a set height but a lot of people swear by it.
You wont need the block, you can always use the jack
This use to happen to my Disco 3 when I took it to have new tires put on or tire rotation. It will gradually return to standard height while driving.
Yeah too bad you can't stay at that height. Thanks for watching.
I go into extended mode. But never can get into super extended mode. What am I doing wrong.
To get into super extended mode, you have to hold the brake down while lifting up on the high lever for five seconds. And you have to be in extended mode. 2:37 is where I show this in the video.
Hey sir I have a question what does the F mean on dash board gears mode on land rover Lr3
Bit of a late reply. But if your gear selection on the dashboard says F, this is fault mode, meaning the car has gone into limp home mode and many functions and gears are unavailable until the fault is cleared. Sometimes... If you're lucky... switching off the engine and waiting a few minutes before starting again will clear the limp home mode.
Greetings from England by the way. Hope you all get what you want in November!! Stay safe.
Did you find this in the don't section of the owners manual as driving like that it will have more cause to roll over.i liked the video and how clearly tou explained everything but man I'm just not shure about doing that
First off thanks for watching. This feature is not for normal around the town driving. You only use this when and if you go off-roading and you need more ground clearance. You're absolutely right you would probably flip over if you drove like this all the time. I appreciate the comment.
Thanks for the vid, I'll go and have a try. But, on super extended and super super extended mode, isn't the LR too stiff ?
You're welcome and thanks for watching. The ride is a lot firmer but you also have to remember when you are in super extended mode you need that height to get out of trouble. Plus, you can only stay at that height for speed's up to 30 miles an hour. Then, you will just return back to normal driving height.
Any after market company for such air suspension
I bought mine from Amazon. I left a link in the description on which one I bought.
Ive noticed the other morning thst the rear end of my 2006 lr3 was in super extended mode. Its been doing this for a. Couole of weeks now .as soon as i open the door or unlock it from the key it goes back down .would you happen to know what this can be ????
It could have something to do with your switch that raises the Rover. The ride height switch. What else does it do and when does it go up to off-road height?
i hope you can help me with this one. friend of mine have 2006 range rover sport and occasionally he gets a suspension error on dash and during that period front end (both corners) are lower than usual. the problem goes away by it self. what could be the problem, in which direction should we go? if it was transfer relief valve, that is mechanical problem and i think it would not go away once it is broken. Also if it is sensor, how come both corners go down? please some info? thanx.
I'm not 100% sure but the valve blocks might have moisture build up in them. I will do some research and get back with you on the matter.
ok. thank you!
ktm640lc4BGD probably suspension height sensors
Thanx Ryan. All pipes, compressor and valves were checked so only sensors and module remains. I have ordered $99 diagnostic tool from eBay so i can read live data of sensor to figure out which one is faulty.
Do you need that block? All you gotta do is hold that lever for 5 seconds, right? I always notice my Rover in off-road mode when I get out of the tire shop.
Giancarlo S In order to go into extended mode you have to have something trigger it. The reason I use the block that would represent you getting grounded then the vehicle will automatically go into extended mode. From extended mode if you hold the brake and the indicator button in the up position then you go into Super extended mode. The reason your vehicle is in off-road mode when you leave the tire shop, is because once they Jack it up, your air struts are constantly trying to keep your tires on the ground.
After following your steps and once I am in extended mode. How do I reset suspension from obstacle?
It will do it automatically.
@@oxmanagain Appreciate you!
How tall are you? The reason I ask is I drove a discovery and was not happy with the leg room. The range rover has good leg room. I'm 6'2".
I'm 6'3" and in this video, I show me sitting in all the seats. Which year did you test drive?
czcams.com/video/BDmi_kdg63o/video.html
It was amazing
+Shabir Zainudeen Thank you and I appreciate your time.
Gonna try this on my Range Rover Vogue L322 tomorrow
Roudi Sulaiman Thanks for watching.
Did it work for you
Dont do it
Havent tried this super extended mode
It's something else.
Hey Brother, I just shared your vid. with a tuber named Vinnie, he is interested in what other heights the LR3 has after "Off Road".
Blessings from Yah to you and yours.
Thanks for the support I appreciate you. You have a nice day.
How did you get 17 MPG average fuel???
New spark plugs, air filter and the proper amount of air in my tires.
Excuse me good sir, I think you may have mislabeled the category as it should be "Comedy." You're insinuating the air suspension on a 10 year old Land Rover works, which is hilarious
My struts are new I just changed them a few months ago.
oxmanagain I'd imagine lol since yours did work. It was just a joke, my grandpa owns this exact one with 15k on it (extremely low mileage) but neither the suspension nor reverse gear work lmao
Wow, that's to bad for your grandfather. Thanks for the reply and you have a good day.
Ive had had a few range rovers ...an audi a8l. And s class that had air suspension. Ive been fortunate for the most. One time a $300 part for the range that made me have to have it towed because one side lowered fully.
You've had some very nice vehicles in your life. If you don't mind what do you currently own?
I fail to understand how to you move from super Extended to super super extended ?
It does it on its own. If you become grounded then this will kick in for you. I just used a jack and then it stayed at that height.
Thanks, great the super extender mode i
i do not understand how to hgo from superextended to super super extended....
When you're off-roading and the vehicle need more ground clearance it will automatically go past super extended mode. What I did in the video was jacked up the frame and it stayed at that height. So I went into super extended mode then I jacked up the frame and it stayed at that height. It has done this many times while I've been off-roading but that's how I did it in the video.
I own a super charged hse Rover and this is a great way to blow out your air suspension - don’t try it. The rover lowers automatically at 30mph for a reason
I made this video to shiw people how to get their Rover in extended mode if they're off-roading and needed a little more ground clearance. I only raise the Rover this high when I go driving in the dirt.
How can I take my RRS suspension out of Extended Mode?
Once you drive over 30 miles it will automatically go back to normal height. Or, you can just lower it back down to normal height with the switch.
@@oxmanagain On mine, when I have it at normal height, I try to lower it into Access Height and it says "Suspension in Extended Mode" and then something like "Try again later when you're clear of the obstacle." Then it raises the vehicle back to Normal Height.
When you drive and get to speeds above 30 mph does it go back to normal height then?
@@oxmanagain It doesn't stay at Access Height when I lower it when parked. It mentions Extended Mode, an obstacle, and then it goes back to Normal Height. So I'm assuming I'm driving around at Normal Height.
Lo sigo teniendo
Спасибо! Но у меня Диско 4 почему то не поднимается выше. Только когда засядет.
Спасибо за просмотр. Если вы начнете работать в режиме бездорожья, поместите палку под фрейм. Понизьте Land Rover, чтобы попасть в палку, тогда он перейдет в расширенный режим.
Затем вы удерживаете педаль тормоза и селектор высоты в верхних положениях в течение 5 секунд, и вы услышите динг, а затем вы перейдете в сверхдлинный режим.
Еще раз спасибо, и если у вас возникнут вопросы, не стесняйтесь спрашивать. Извините, если это звучит плохо, я использовал Google translate.
The translation is understandable. Thanks for the detailed explanation. Now everything is clear. Good luck!
Артем Троицкий You're welcome and thank you for watching.
The body is lifted but the axle is still the same height, true clearance is only achieved by running larger tires.
That's true for a solid axle rig, not for the LR3. The extra gound clearance is legit.
Awesome! How long is the piece of wood you use?
Joe Hobbs 11 1/2"
Thanks for the trick!
But what is the length of the wood in cm? 29? Thanks again and plz sorry for a stupid question)
The wood piece I used is was 350 cm and this was a good question. Thanks for watching.
3.5 m - Wow that's really extended ;-)
I have already had to use it 2 times while out off-roading since the video and it saved me.
Man I can see you love that car 😉👍
Haha yeah, I do.
oxmanagain after 12 years of having my HSE I still have permagrin when I drive her, keep up the good work dude 😉🎅🎄👍
Wow, after 12 years, that's great. I agree with you, today I took my daughters' off-roading with me and had a blast. Thanks for watching.
What is Super Super Extended Mode - at no stage in your video were you higher than Super Extended Mode - nothing that the car was not designed to do and is all covered in the manual. I have LLAMs fitted to my car so can go +50mm higher than whatever is selected or what the car does - however it cannot go higher than the what the suspension is physically capable off. When at offroad height and LLAMS at +50 I am about the same height as super extended height (your Super Super height). If I then grounded the base height setting should try to go from Offroad to Extended height (I then have my extra 50mm) but it probably will not go much more because of the suspension limitations.
Nice vid but there is no such thing as Super Super Extended mode.
Thanks for the detailed comment. At the beginning of the video, I'm in super super extended mode. Regular off-road height is 14" measured from the center of the LR @1:03. Then super extended mode raised it to 15 1/2" @ 3:15. Then what I'm calling super super extended mode is @ 4:36 and the height went to 17 1/2". This is how I got it to that height. I put a floor jack under the frame and raised the LR and then it stayed there. I have been at this height before when I was off-roading and the vehicle became grounded on one side. The Rover will continue to try and level itself until it can't go any further.
I started the video off in super super extended mode just so people could see what it could get to. Then I show the process. You are right about the name, I just came up with that because I didn't know what else to call it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks - what you call Super Extended mode is what Landrover in the handbook call Extended Mode - and what you call Super Super Extended mode is just what we all call Super Extended mode (actually LR dont refer this as anything in the handbook). So please do not use terminologies that are not relevant - it just confused people.
You go from Locked Access Height, Normal Access Height, Onroad Height, Offroad Height, Extended Height and then to Super Extended Height - there is not Super Super Extended Height. Of these heights the only one that is not selectable is Extended Height as this is the grounding escape function and the car will do this automatically if it detects it is grounded - this is what you mimic with the blocks of wood.
@@joeblow3823 But the car can and will actually raise more than the super-extended apparently..
Is it stock?!!
Yes. this is stock.
the USA Marketed vehicles are different to rest of the world, the key has no LR button, but a hazard button in its place
ride height no hard switch but a rocker button, hence most of your lessons are not at all applicable down under where we have d2,3,4 in USA lr3.4, mostly gasoline power LR dropped the D name because of the terrible name the Disco 2 had there with gas engines, the D2 With 5 cylinder diesel was great, drove one all over, now I have the D4, rides like a Mercedes, tows 4 tonnes, but tooooooooooooooo complex for the Outback
Just keep playing games with Land Rover suspension
Why didn't you show how you got to super super x mode?
I did show how to go into Super extended mode. Once you're in extended mode you hold your foot on the brake, while you lift up the lever until you hear a ding and then you go into Super extended mode.
@@oxmanagain You didn't read my ques. right, yes you did show how to go into super x mode but not Super-Super X mode. Proof? at 2:43 you went in Super X mode, you confirmed that mode at 3:15 and 3:27 by saying so when you got out the car then you went back in the car and said something and went outside at 4:02 and said you are now looking at Super-Super X mode and gave us higher measurements.. I know what I'm saying, I have ocd for perfection
@@axewax9074 he raised it with his jack and it stayed like that. you cannot press any button to get it to super-super x mode. Apparently.
@@andremorissette so you do understand that he says one thing but when asked about it he can't back it up. At least you now know that he never showed us the super-super-ext mode and THAT was apparent. I was surprised I was the only one that saw this flaw.
@@andremorissetteit's been 8 months and @oxmanagain still has not replied to my question on this. What is he afraid of?
Would it work in a Range Rover Sport 2012?
I was told it did.
oxmanagain thank you
