TD5 coolant issues

Martynp · Oct 21, 2013

Hi,
I'm in need of advice, I have a x reg disco td5 with coolant issues!!!
She drives fine but if you get to about 70mph the temperature rises and I loose power and water, also I loose the heat from the heaters

I've had it checked for HG failure and came back clear.
I've had a new radiator, water pump and thermostat but still have overheating
Problems. Also if I sit in traffic I loose the heat from the heaters.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated
Thank you

+2 I'm afraid..... A

(ime the loss of heater is the coolant level dropping below the heater feed, and driving it like that will prob end in a cracked head too..... don't ask how I know..... Turners AMC head is a major improvement over the original)
