hi every one.new member here.just saying hello.
just became the owner of a over heating t reg freelander with L series rover tdi.
my problem is engine runs great for the first 30/40 minutes after start up with plenty of power and quick throttle response then as the tempreture rises to around 2/3rd way up the gauge power dies off and she gets very sluggish.
also cooling fan does'nt cut in and i dont know where the switch is....
thank you all in advance...rubble09

Hope yer not expecting someone to say."Don't worry about it, they all do that and it will fix itself......"

The overheating could amongst other things, be due to a blocked radiator, bodged coolant refill, faulty water pump and or knackered thermostat. Has or will result in hgf

Have a look in the Freelander section, they will be slightly more sympathetic that you have left it a while ...
