Hi there i really need some help here. my truck keeps on overheating and i just replaced the thermostat and i tested the radiator and water pump as well. can somebody please help me out here does anybody know whats going on with my truck?

 

Are you losing anti freeze fluid? Check your reservoir. If so, these trucks are notorious for blowing head gaskets.

 

Is there a bunch of debris between your radiator and a/c blocking air flow?

 

How mechanical are you, how much have you read about our Disco's overheating? Send me your number and I'll call you.

 

no there's no debris blocking at all i cleaned it my self that was the first thing i did. cleaning the engine compartment from top to bottom.
by the the thanks for replying back.

 

No I'm not loosing antifreeze. i just hope is not my head gaskets that need replaced or something major then head gaskets. I'm just hoping for the best.
by the way thanks for replying back.

 

well I've done engine rebuilds before but never for land rover. I've taken apart Vw air cooled engines, Honda civic engines,ford engines,even Chevy big block 350. but never land rover discovery or any land rover. and about overheating issues i had deal with cars with that problem before but this one is just the one truck that i don't want to missed up i really like this truck.
by the way thanks for replying back.

 

No I'm not loosing any antifreeze i check every other day to see if the level change and it doesn't change a bit. i also check my oil cap on y valve cover gaskets and the oil still very clean no residue of antifreeze and oil mix. thanks for the tip. WaltNYC

 

to Chris-bob actually there was a little bit of debris between of the radiator and the grill and i cleaned it out but whats more weird is that i recently changed my oil and it came out very dirty. it looks like that oil has been there for several years as well as the oil pan gasket or in another words sealant. my truck is now running way better and im glad that i changed the oil i really felt sorry for the truck how can people drive a car and never change the oil. those people shouldn't have a license. thanks for your tip.
