Only to update this thread. My freelander is in a LR garage located near my city since may 13. They are trying to locate where water is leaking without sucess. First they said that was the oil cooler (near the passenger front wheel), but they changed the cooler and the oil and the water still...

Tomorrow I will take she to a LR garage and I will get their opinion. She has only 30.000 Km (18.500 miles). Hard to belive that a LR engine has a short life time like that. For the last 12 years I only drove Jeeps Wrangler. I had 4 of them (I still own one 1998 model). Those jeeps never let...

Any Help???? Thanks Mauricio

Another input...today I checked the oil's level with the cold motor and the level and the color is ok, but the creamy/grease/mayonese thing still remains in the fill cap. Thanks Mauricio

I usually run about 50 km in a day. 25 km to go to work and more 25 km to go back to my house. This short trips explain the dark brown oil in stick and the white creamy oil in the filler cap? I really hope so...I couldn't sleep this night thinking about the milk oil. I have to wait until monday...

Thanks!!! When I was fifteen (long time ago) I studied for 2 months in Hastings. Back to my problem.....I'm scared....I just found where the water is. It is in oil. I was checking oil using the stick (the place where you check the oil's level. I don't know the correct name). At this place the...

I will order a new thermostat and I will try to change it by myself. I have to wait about 30 days to receive the parts here in Brazil. I will let you know if I solve the problem with this change. Thanks

I will try this tonight. How hard is to change the thermostat? Thanks

My carpets are dry. I left the car standing all last weekend. No leaks. As Chaser said the coolant is being lost/used/consumed while the engine is running. I have owned the car for the last 6 months. No warranty. I don't think that is a HGF. The car is running ok, has only 30.000 Km and...

Thanks for the imput, but I changed th bottle and the cap last week and the coolant still leaking. Is there another test to try find where the coolant is going? Thanks Mauricio

Howardo, Thanks for the help. I will try this on the next weekend, but as the dealer made a pressure test, I think that there isn't any leak in the manifold, hoses or gaskets. I think that the pressure test is made with motor off and with a cool system. Something is happening when system...

Hi, I'm new here and I'm new with Land Rover too. I bought here in Brazil a 2005 V6 HSE Freelander with only 30.000 Km. Since first week I detected a coolant leak. I have to put about 1 liter of coolant every week. There is no signal of coolant in the oil, in my garage's floor, in the...
