Hi friends. I amfrom dubai and new to the land rover family. Got myself a lr3 v6 in august 08. been very pleased with it till the coolant problem cropped up. First time around (2 months back)after a desert drive the coolant just came gushing out like a geyser and thereafter the vehicle just packed up, refusing to start (guess it was a safety procedure by all the intelligent electronics). Couple of days back and 3k after the 1st incident got an ominous "low coolant level " warning. Took it straight to the agency and was told the engine has an intermittent overheating problem( reasons unkown). Still awaiting the final verdict from them. Anyone experienced something similar? Any information on the subject deeply appreciated.

Hello and welcome.
Hopefully your directing your question to other people who live somewhere very hot otherwise your making us in England very jealous. Not about your over heating problem though.
Don't know about dubai but over here you'd take it straight back to the "agency" and ask them nicely to either fix the problem or replace the vehicle as it's obviously unfit for purpose.
Hope you get the problem sorted.
Me I'd tell them to keep the useless thing demand all my money back and buy an old Defender.
All the best from chilly damp England
