hello hopefully somone on her can help!, bascially i have recently accquired a 4.6 hse on a r plate. I purchased the range rover with a possible overheating problem, please let me point out in easy points the issues
the car has previously overheated once and has not run quite right since.
i collected the car with intensions of being recovered by rac at some point but after a 250! mile drive home it was faultless, stayed at half way all the time and only on a couple of occasions slighty went down if this helps then back to half way never over.
the car runs a little rough after 2000 rpm on acceleration but when cruisin settles out so only under acceleration,
when i left her stationary it did start seeping water from the little over flow from the expasion bottle and steaming but again all ok on the temp gauge!
but there seems no flow of water fromt he rad to the return pipe to resovoir bottle. i have taken small pipe of at rad top and still no water coming out it seems as if there is no water cycle? but how could this be without overheating!
please help as this is really nice car I dont want to change engine/ head if not needed thanks..................
