I cant seem to find where I am lossing my coolant but every couple of days it seems to e low again, the only time i see where it has come out of the system is when it comes out of the over flow hose on the expantion tank. I just redid the thermostat and it is supposed to open at 195 F. and the hoses on the coolant system were just replaced with at fluid flush and refill. any ideas?

 

What year and mileage?

Classic symptoms of a head gasket leak.

i would second that, its got to be the head gasket, especially since you are not seeing any visible leaks. check your oil...is it milky?

 

When they did the flush, I am wondering if they bled the air from the coolant system.

 

i replaced the hoses and did the flush. how do i remove the air from the system?

 

I just did a head gasket replacment. got new troqblots had a valve job done had the injectors refurbished, the exhaus manifolds shaved, and did all the gaskets. I got it with 84000 on it and she is just hitting 89000, so that was alot of work in a short while.

 

we still need to know the year of your Disco

 

Year will help, why refurbised injectors, if it ia a D2, someone sold you a bill of goods.
Call me if you want me to walk you thru the bleeding.

She is a D1, 96 SE7 4.0 Took the original injectors in for fear of what gas the previous owner used, the shop went through them and set them all to the same flow. I'm no mechanic, but i know a couple and a good friend who helped me out so I was very open to addvice. I got quoted for about a $2300 head job, and that was when i became an at home mechanic. but i wish i would have wrote in more as much ten as i do know, you guys are assome and i really appericate the help. I've just been trying my damndest to show every one up that talks carp about rovers, cause i love mine, I've been trying to spruce her up the the driveing quality has to come first, we'll see after the new o2 sensors get on this week. But as far as the fluid, it comes out of the breather hose on the expansion tank, form what i can tell that is it. oil is not milky, but i will change and take a closer look. thanks again guys.

 

so you did the gasket replacement? did you make sure the gaskets were seated properly? did you torque the heads down in the proper order? many more questions that could be asked!
