Just wanted to share this pic of an aftermarket heater core 2 ys old. I replaced it with a oem valeo from a low milage Range Rover. The Valeo model was much heavier and solid than the aftermarket. You can see that the aftermarket developed cracks around the orings, mabey from bumping the pipes...

Hi Is there any way of determine that it's a blown head gasket, crack in block or slipped liner? I have suspected that a Head Gasket was on its way to go and today the white smoke cloud was bigger then ever and it also smell coolant, mayo on the inside of the oil cap and gas smell in coolant...

Hi All, my coolant expansion tank cracked, causing white steam to come out. is it typical for this to crack on a 2006 range rover sport, or does this indicate another problem ? I think i got to it just in time, and turned of the engine immediately , there was a hissing sound for quite a...

I have less than 150 miles on my '16 SCV8, and I just noticed that on one of the headlights the edge is popping up, and along parts of the same edge pieces are chipping off. I could maybe understand the chip being from a rock (although I highly doubt it given low mileage and no incidents while I...

Apparently OBD code 1170 is also attributable to a hairline crack on the catalytic converter, I have heard of possible repairs to this problem, does anyone know how to detect it and how to repair it? Please any thought would be appreciated. Tks Lou

Well. It's happened to me. Coolant had a pinhole leak which caused an air pocket. Temp only went into the red for a second. Luckily got home from across town after cooling it off and flushing the coolant. Pressure tested the system with the oil pan bolt off, and it was leaking coolant out...

So under some cleverly placed duct tape (Which was the same color as the bumper) I found this... Now my question is, should I attempt to repair this or should I just tough it out and get a bumper off of ebay?

Hi, First it was the airbag area on the dash that started cracking which i was told was normal to these rr's but now this very ugly crack came on from no where and its really killin me. Sad part is the car is out of warranty. So was wondering if there is some kinda diy for getting it off. Thanks

My 2003 model L322 ( petrol BMW V8 ) began indicating low coolant level on cold starts. After refilling some litre of fluid things looked normal. But low level reappeared after a few days. I noticed fluid dripping in front of the engine bay and with a hand lamp I got enough illumination to track...

My truck is making a loud rumbling sound. Local shop states the center muffler is cracked / rusted and that it'd be $1.5k to replace the center muffler and both rears, as they state they wouldn't be able to reattach the rears, as they too aren’t in great condition. Also called the dealer which...

I bought my 3rd rover recently, as I had never owned more than one at a time. I sold my LR3 a year or so ago. Picked up a Disco 2 for hunting trail vehicle. Went to buy a rack on on Craiglist and ended up buying 2 parts cars, a d1 and rrc, and within a few weeks, picked up 2 RRC's, and...

Hows it going rover family its been a minute. I just notices a small crack on my dash board following the outline of the airbag,its about 1.5 inches. I did some research and found that rr sports 2006-2009 have this problem. Does anyone know of a fix other then getting the dashboard replaced? I...

I started my birthday this morning like this??? :) We're talking 2008 RR HSE with factory 19" wheels. Factory TPMS sensors as well. I am a tire pressure-checking freak: twice a week. So, I was checking tire pressure this morning when POP goes the tip (1/4" - the part with the threads) of...
