hey folks,
im having problems with my freelander overheating, it is a 1.8 1999 freelander (k-series) with 50k on the clock. i bought the car as a winter run arround but have had nothing but problems since. (good old land rover)
firstly the head gasket went on xmas day, so replaced the headgasket with an mls kit, (engine block was in good condition) as well as a timing belt change all other belts and water pump. However after about 60 miles of doing this the engine started overheating.. so, replaced the theromstat (located at the rear of the engine) and blead the system, however....its still overheating. does anybody have any ideas. the expansion chamber does leak slightly through the cap when it gets hot will this really help it if i change the cap,
many thanks
