I noticed recently that there was a hiss from the overflow on my Freelander 1 1.8 2001 car. There was also some cooling fluid loss. I topped it up but the hiss continued. I tried tightening the top and giving the pipe connectors a tighten but it seemed to continue.
Today there has been no hiss and no cooling loss.
A few months ago the Head Gasket was replaced but the garage suggested I also replace the overflow tank although it looks in good condition.
It also needs new tyres and exhaust for which I have been quoted £111 for each tyre (Pyrelli Scorpions) and £127 for centre and rear exhaust units. The former being £79 but they are suggesting I replace both units as the connection is not usually good if you just replace one unit.
I can't get the emmissions checked with a leaking exhaust so I was going to tackle this before bothering with the tyres due to cost constraints.
Any suggestions appreciated.
