Hi chaps,
Recently got the land rover running perfect, had no faults at all for last couple weeks. Normally the coolant temp needle doesn't go above half way and normally sits about a third of the way, I was driving through the welsh valleys today and came to steep incline, suddenly the temp gauge moves to 3/4 way up, pulled over and let to cool, started up travelled another 2 or 3 miles and it happened again. At this point I was where I needed to be for the day.
On travelling home the needle didn't move above halfway for most of journey then suddenly climbed to close to last white mark, stayed there for couple miles (squeaky bum time) then seemed to drop to normal. Just been out again and it seems to fluctuate to top of scale, stay for abit then come to halfway.
No water being lost at all, oil level seems ok....stumped!!! And quite worried about it frying the heads. Any ideas?
Cheers in advance
