Help please!!
Sorry for the long post. Im a singlefemale and dont really have anyine to ask
So I bought my first ever landrover a 1.8 53 plate petrol.
In the first 2 weeks of having it I put in 8 ltrs of coolant. It didn't seem to be coming out anywhere at all. I put a clean sheet underneath and poured 2 -3 ltrs in but it didn't come out anywhere underneath.
So I got someone to follow me but it wasn't smoking at all.
I took it back to garage they had it a week and repaired the following-
Cam belt
Water pump
Head gasket
Another gasket??
New bolts
And the head was sent away to be skimmed.
Since it came back I have oil puddles where ever u park it.
I cleaned him all up left him overnight and can see the oil is collecting on the right side, as you look at it, of the cylinder head (I think it's called??)
Any ideas please?
Sorry I don't know what engine bits are called

thank you for reply. I took it back to the sales garage today but they only gave me a month warranty so said they wouldn't do anything
A month warranty is crap. Take pics of the leaking area and we will see if any of us can help. We are mainly US based and didn't get the 1.8 freelanders. We only got 2.5 v6 as a option and 90% of those are dead now due to engine failures.
Thank you I will take some pics in the morning x
