Default Maybe a LR OEM coolant cap is superior!

Just finished my coolant and thermostat swap-out and the aftermarket reservoir cap I just purchased fell apart after only being put on and removed about 10 times in the past 2 weeks as I flushed and then refilled and checked the coolant level. The cap separated from the lower part with the O-ring seals and over pressure valve.

I got it from Rover's North a few weeks ago and I don't recall the manufacturer but it was about half the cost of the OEM one. But the fine folks there took care of me when I called to tell them. They offered me the OEM one if I would pay the difference in price and included free shipping which I thought was great customer service on their part.

Sorry to hear that, but yes generally Land Rover had it right the first time.


One big thing for me is bushings, I almost always go with LR bushings.
