Hi guys,

I am new to this website, and thought this would be a good place to start to try and solve my over heating problem with my P38 2.5 DSE.

My Range Rover runs spot on, has had a new engine from landrover 20k miles ago (previous owner thank god,but have receipts etc to prove), and since then has always had a heating problem.:doh:

It runs fine if you leave the heating on hot all the time as soon as you put it to cold or turn it off, it boils up. I leant it to someone who turned the heatin of and cracked the top of the rad. So i am putting a new rad in which hopefully will stop this but any ideas if it doesn't because i am panicing!!

I pressure tested the head and definately isnt the head gasket by the way!!
