Expert Answers about Land Rover Discovery Sport


  • Troubleshooting Trailer Hitch Accessory LED Lights Remaining Lit After Vehicle is Turned Off
  • The issue you are experiencing sounds like an accessory problem because LED lights require so little amperage to work correctly. The ever so slight draw on your trailer wiring harness can be enough for an LED to stay lit. You can add load resistors like # DI34ZR to your accessory, but it may not be worth the effort as you can simply unplug it when not being used. Even if you were to leave it plugged into your vehicle, the ever so slight draw would take months to drain your battery...

  • Parts for Yakima JetStream Roof Rack on 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport and How Many Bikes Will Fit
  • To install the 50" Yakima JetStream crossbars # Y00425 on your 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport you'll also need the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR as well as fit kits # Y06127 and # Y06154. When it comes to bike capacity there are a few factors that come into play, but if your bikes are lightweight then you can potentially fit 5 or 6 bikes on 50" crossbars. The factors that you need to take note of are the weight of your bikes, the width of the bike racks you plan on using, and the geometry of...

  • What is Max Pressure the TireMinder TPMS for Single Axle Trailers Can Read TPMS-TRL-2
  • The psi range of the # TPMS-TRL-2 is 0-70 psi so if you inflated your Goodyear tires to 65 when cold they would get right up to the max of this system once heated up. The PressurePro FX 2 part # 372FX2K is a similar 2 sensor setup that has a range up to 215 psi and can display on your smart phone if you wanted to consider something else with a higher rating.

  • How to Carry Bikes on a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • We do have a Curt trailer hitch that fits a 2017 Land Rover Discover Sport; it's part # C13396. It only fits if you don't have the 5+2 in your vehicle and will work with your bike carrier as long as it fits a 2 inch hitch. The 5+2 seating is basically a third row of two seats that can be layed flat in the rear cargo area. If your Rover does have the 5+2 seating the only available option we currently have to carry bikes on your Land Rover is to add a roof rack with bike carriers on its...

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for 2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport Tire Size 235/55-19
  • Konig has a great set of XG style tire chains that fit your tire size of 235/55-19 but the part number you mentioned does not fit. Instead you'd want the part # TH01594250. I wasn't able to pull up your vehicle's owners manual online but you'll want to look up the tire chain section in the owners manual in the glove box of your vehicle and all tire chain restrictions will be listed there, it will also say which axle to run the chains on. In case there's a clearance restriction mentioned...

  • Trimming Needed to Install Trailer Hitch On 2015 Land Rover Discover Sport
  • There is trimming required to install the Curt hitch part # C13396 that you referenced. I attached a picture that I took from the install instructions that shows where the trimming is required. The Curt trailer wiring kit part # C56297 is a confirmed fit and the kit to use. It does require running the power wire up the battery which I would do through the exterior of the vehicle as that will be much easier than getting the wiring into the interior of the vehicle, concealed behind interior...

  • Can Yakima Bike Rack Install on Aero-Style Crossbars
  • We do have a large selection of roof-mounted bike racks that will work perfectly on the flat aero-style Yakima Core Bar crossbars like # Y00421 that you have on your Land Rover. I recommend taking a look at the Thule ProRide XT # TH598004. This carrier will actually secure your bike by the frame so you don't have to take off the front wheel and it has a weight capacity of 44 pounds. A bike lock is also included to help protect your investment. I have attached a short video demonstration...

  • The install for the Curt Hitch part # C13396 is a bit involved, but it will not require you to permanently remove your spare tire to install it. Check out the link to the install instruction I attached for more info. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900.

  • Trailer Hitch Available for 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE TD6
  • As long as your 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE TD6 does not have the 5+2 seating (3rd row), the Curt # C13396 is a confirmed fit on your vehicle. If you have a Discovery Sport that is the 5+2 seating, there is not a hitch that is confirmed for use on that vehicle. In order to finish out your towing package you'll need to add a few other parts like trailer wiring, a ball mount and hitch ball. For trailering wiring, you'll want to use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring # C56297 to...

  • Recommended Anti-Rattle for Swagman XC Bike Rack
  • The Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches # S64650 does not require a specific wrench or socket. It does use a 3/4 inch wrench or socket and you will want to move the shank up and down as you tighten the bolt. If you want a wrench and socket you can use the Ratchet with 3/4" Socket for Anti-Rattle Hitch Bolts # PTW38106-24. You may want to use the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable for Swagman Bike Racks w/ 1-1/4" & Combo Shanks - 7' # S64031 to further...

  • Is There A Trailer Hitch For A 2024 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • Hello James. The Curt # C13396 hitch that you mentioned will not fit a 2024 land Rover Discovery Sport. This hitch will only fit the 2015-2019 models without 5+2 seating. Unfortunately, we do not offer a hitch for the 2020-current Discovery Sport models. If you need to carry cargo, the best option would be to use a roof rack system. I just need to know what style of rails are on your roof. You can see the options in the image below. Let me know what you have in the comments below and...

  • Trailer Wiring and Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Land Rover Discover Sport

The Curt hitch part # C13396 that you referenced is a confirmed fit and will work well. Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900.

  • Recommended Towing Mirror Extensions For a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • I recommend going with the CIPA # 7070 (or #7070-2 both sides) mirror over the Dual-View # 11953 mirror you found. While these are both universal mirrors which you can use on your 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport, I find the dual mirror setup much more difficult to see things clearly. The very small blind spot mirror on the end just makes it more difficult to see since the main mirror is reduced so much in size. They both do use the same style Straps # 11952STRAP which are a simple design...
