chaps I need some advice. Range Rover P38 4.0L 2000 Automatic.
Just got back from B & Q to replace and repair some fence panels thanks to storm Doris. Luckily got home.
Turned on the engine to put the car back to ride height (likes to drop a bit at night but used to that). Noticed a clacking noise from the engine, switched off and discovered a hose screw clip in the way of the fan. So undid, moved out of the way, then restarted the engine. Felt quite smug at this point but then more noise, same place. So repositioned the hose clip all ok, the fan spun freely and looked centered ok.
Next loads of coolant pored out of the bottom of the engine, looked underneath, seemed to be coming off the bottom pulley of the three in front of the radiator. Hose top fine can't see a split hose.
Will have to get the car recovered so's not to overheat the engine, but what would be the cause? Your advice and greater knowledge would be much appreciated. I need it up and running for the Landry Zone weekend plus my daily driver.
