Hi can anyone help, I have a 04 freelander td4 auto, all running fine no issues other than heater never seems to get hot and takes a while to even get warm.
Ive been on long journeys and still just warm also temp gauge only registers like quarer, I have heard this could be a thermostat issue from reading the forums can anyone confirm this? Also not even sure where the thermostat is and is it a difficult job to change it do I need gaskets etc anyone done this job advise would be appreciated. Is it an easy home job I am fairly adept with a spanner and have a good selection of tools help please.

Hi, it definitely sounds like thermostat is stuck open
