Easy enough to make a float that works on specific gravity, that's how battery acid used to be checked.
Perhaps for tropical regions where antifreeze is not available LR fitted a different float?

Thankyou !
Not sure really, don't see why they would fit two different ones.
I think there's two in the tank already positioned next to the magnetic reed switch in the chamber. One for a generel low level and one for the correct mixture

If there are 2 floats, maybe the one that does the specific gravity of the antifreeze can be turned off in the BCU as an option, you should be able to see if this is the case with your shiny new Faultmate

If there is two floats there's still only one reed switch
Hence getting the same message with low coolant on the wrong mixture

How easy was the draining procedure ??
I need to do mine soon
What about bleeding the system after ?
Thanks
draining is easy enough , theres a tap on the bottom of rad and one on the engine block. then just fill her back up to the brim ,take out the bleed screw next to the cap.put cap back on and start engine. watch the air come out of the bleed screw hole. when its stopped bubbling put it back in . job done
