Hi All

I am a novice with landrovers and to be honest with cars in general. I popped the hood today and found that a liquid container was under the minimum recommended volume, however I have no idea what the liquid is.

Please help, the container is located to left under the hood and is orange, there are couple of markers on the cap which say 110kPA 16 psi

Anyone know what this is? I would consult the manual but I dont know where it is

Thanks in advance

It is the coolant expansion tank, only top it up with the same coolant/water mix that is in it already. Seriously buy a manual from halfords or your freelander won't last very long.
