New Disco II, New Problems: Coolant Shavings?
Hello all,
I'm a first time Disco II owner, having recently bought what I considered a low mileage 2004. After having it for just a few days, I've noticed some things that need attention. The heads need work, which is not a problem, but I wanted to run something I haven't seen before past you guys and gals.
When Topping off coolant today, I noticed "sparkles." They are incredibly small, like something you might see in an ostentatious makeup. I'm guessing they are from a worn out water pump? Below is a picture of how dense the shavings are ... a large drop from the cap of the coolant reservoir.
Aside from the engine and the electronics, I'm loving this vehicle. Any help would be great. Thanks!
