Heater core is exactly what it is. What year of rover do you have?

Download the Rave manual online, get a lot of beer, and kiss your weekend goodbye I wouldn't call it hard but it is very tedious and time consuming. A lot of stuff has to come off to get access. I haven't done it on the Range but I did it on the Disco, but I imagine it is similar.

Default Overheating issues with my 98 range rover

The car would overheat then steam would poor out of the a/c vents. I've change the cap, thermostat still overheated. The fans in front of the radiator don't work either. Now when I put it on reverse the engine turns off
