Throttle body leak
Hello,
I was told I have a throttle body leak. I have a disco 2001 SD7. It is leaking on underneath side where the two lines connect. It looks to leak from the top of the left side. I am not sure whether I should be buying the the throttle body itself or just a throttle body heater plate kit. I also filled my coolant because it was low.
I did take a picture of where it supposed to be leaking from. But I am having difficulties with attaching to message.

Heater plate kit. Common problem. You can bypass it by putting the 2 hoses together with a small piece of tubing until you can get to it. Kit is under $30 to fix. roverparts.com or even check your dealer.

I bypassed mine last week and it solved the problem right away! I live in south texas so there will be no need for it, it may freeze one or two days a YEAR!!! lol.
best of luck and it only took about 5 minutes to do!
