My 2004 2.5L V6 Freelander SE had the water pump replaced in 2014. It would still drink coolant a little faster than I thought it should have after that, but it wasn't terrible. Then earlier this year I replaced my reservoir after a ton of micro cracks had it steaming up a storm. Then my new reservoir split at its seem in the middle not a week a later. I had that one replaced and also swapped out the cap. Now yesterday I had something else (yet to be diagnosed) in my coolant system explode in a heap of steam. I tried to pour a little more coolant in as the reservoir went dry immediately, but it poured (from somewhere?) out onto the street. It was raining cats and dogs yesterday so I couldn't identify where the leak was coming from.
But all this has me wondering... is my cooling system under too much pressure? Could these failures be symptoms of a larger problem?
Has anyone else experienced similar headaches?
