2005 Land Rover .
Temp gauge went up. The engine continued to run. I just stopped. The shop replaced the coolant expansion tank because it was split. They filled and bled the cooling system. It spewed. Mechanics suspect blown head gasket. We had it towed back to our house but it starts fine and runs. We just couldn't go the $4000.00 to repair. Someone that can work on it needs to own it.

We recently replaced both front wheel bearings, struts, tie rods, both front discs on brakes and one pad and one sensor. AC recently charged and windshield washer tank was repaired. Body and inside looks good. New tires last year. 156,161 miles. Love this car but we can't work on it.
$2800.00

 

. We recently replaced both front wheel bearings, struts, tie rods, both front discs on brakes and one pad and one sensor. AC recently charged and windshield washer tank was repaired. Body and inside looks good. New tires last year. Around 155,000 miles. Love this car but we can't work on it. Temp gauge started going up and we stopped and had it towed. Mechanic says blown head gasket but we don't want to put anymore money in it. Good deal for someone that can work on them. $2800.00

 

Hello, I just ran across your post in the Land Rover forums about your lr3 and the blown head gasket. I do have a few questions if you don't mind responding. Did the mechanic tell you anything more than blown head gasket needed to be addressed? Were there any other issues that they saw at the time of inspection? Also, what other items besides the ones you listed have you replaced on the vehicle? Is it still for sale? Is the $2800 negotiable? And lastly, where are you located?

 

Thanks for your inquiry. We sold the Rover. I need to take it off the forum-sorry.
