you need someone with LR experience - computer codes should have been read - sounds as if your mechanic is just hunting for possibles and likely has replaced things that needed replacement sooner or later. However, the codes allow an experienced tech to isolate the problem and fix it quickly and as cheaply as possible. Ask the forumfor a referral in your local area (it's likely someone on the board will be able to put you in the right direction) Good luck and thanks for your sacrifice.

So much for that mechanic.
Go get the codes read and get back to us with the 4 digit fault codes numbers. Many auto parts stores will do this for free.
