Well, I'm hoping my overheating issues are now sorted
Fitted my new cap, ran the engine for about 20 minutes, even went out for a spin and no issues, heat from the blowers, no bubbling ! Coolant temp got up to 111c too and my jet engine fans were going like the clappers !
One problem on my run out, the bloody HDC failure warning came on ! So gonna have to look at that now, along with the misfire on cylinder 2 and the O2 sensor fault !!!! Oh well, keeps me busy
The engine temperature should stay around 100° C while driving. While it's ok for the engine to run at 111 ° C under some operating conditions. However it's not normal for the engine to run that hot. My V6 Freelander never went above 106 ° C even while towing 2 Tons up some very long steep hills.
You could have a failing thermostat or clogged radiator, although that's not common.
