Well, I'm on a through Idaho from California in my (new to me) 2011 LR4 and suddenly I get an overheating notification. Pull over for a bit to let things settle down, since the thermometer was freaking out. Start it back up, now I get a low coolant notification. Check the coolant level and it's shockingly low. Swing by Oreilly to grab some coolant, start filling but once I get to the fill level, I hear some glugs followed by a bunch of coolant dripping out of the bottom... Seems like it's coming from right behind or at the water pump?
So I'm suspecting it's time has come for a water pump replacement (just hit 75k miles, previous owners hadn't had them replaced). Any other possibilities? Or things I should possibly have done with the water pump replacement?
