His wife is already balking at the money he is spending on the car. If he's down on his knees licking it then questions really will be asked.
and your 3 yr old hands may come in handy.
He has the hands of a 3 year old? Where's the rest? Do the police know?

I washed it with just water to get the mud of then a sponge to clean then another jet wash to get the soap off.
The carpet was slightly damp on the side of the tunnel were the heater vent is for your feet

Deffo sounds like o rings, its about the cheapest fault parts wise on a range rover.
Compared to those b*st*rd spiral clutch pins they're a walk in the park.

Why would the antifreeze leave a green colour when the normal anti freeze is pink? Mine had a nice pink stain with pretty crystals

You guys are right not a lot of people want to do this job. But I remembered I have a warranty on the car so I'm going to see if I can claim [emoji28]

Oooo get you, goes with your eye's I suppose.
Hope its a good warranty, some places consider rubber O rings as perishable and as such consumable items not covered as failure!

Is it worth doing the heater matrix also do you think?

If it was me... Id rather do this job myself, yeah its fiddly, but will the student in the dealership/garage take as much care and time over all your plastic clips etc as you? ...? I doubt it....

I wish I had the time to do it myself. I work all hours
Only if you truly suspect it has a hole or is sufficiently corroded to warrant it....getting the matrix out on a RHD vehicle is a real pain...
If you are paying a garage to do the O rings, then maybe get them to replace the heater too, as they will dismantle the dash anyway, so while its apart they may aswell!!

You say get them to replace the heater are you referring to the heater matrex

If you're lucky you may find that someone has been there before and done it, I found that's what had happened with mine, the guide here : Heater o-ring replacement full procedure & new shortcuts shows what is involved.The required surgery to the inner panel and duct had been done, It only took me about 45mins, relevant thread here http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/philips-pozidrive-271810.html.
There are several vids on youtube also.
Good luck.
