    Troubleshooting coolant vacuum fill failure

    ...tank. Talked to an experienced mechanic at my local indy JLR shop and he recommended that I do 2 things: 1. Drain the oil and see if coolant comes out with it 2. Pull the spark plugs and use a borescope to look for coolant in the combustion chamber of each cylinder. I'm gonna do those things...

    White smoke is from burning coolant.

    Where is my coolant going??

    Was it a head gasket/cracked head?

    Crazy to consider new engine in a 2016 LR4?

    Step 1 should be verification of state of engine by someone who knows these vehicles. Then decide. Might be leaky coolant fitting and torn pcv. ( Much cheaper and easier fix)

    dreaded coolant level warning

    Not scared, I appreciate the detailed answer, it makes a lot of sense. The coolant pipes are all relatively fresh, only 3 years old and 25k miles and I have not seen any coolant leaks. Just the coolant low warning and the smell after struggling up that hill. Looks like HF have both the tool...

    2015 LR4 Coolant Issue - Nothingburger or...

    What I did for mine is replaced the coolant parts proactively. With 96k mi on yours, the xovers need to be replaced no matter what. I did the water pump, tstat and some other coolant parts too that often fail prematurely, then the radiator since it had a slight seeping leak. You won't really...

    2015 LR4 Coolant Issue - Nothingburger or...

    ...quick. Get a UV flashlight, $10. After dark look all around, especially on the front of the engine. Also, at about 2:00 at the oil filter, look straight down, 6" or so, until you see a little triangular space down there. If you are running Rover coolant, anything orange/yellow is a coolant leak.

    Coolant in transmission cooler?

    Yes it is possible for transmission fluid to get into the coolant via the plate heat exchanger. I would replace the cooler and flush the transmission a couple times before replacing the transmission

    Coolant leak & collapsed top hose when cold?

    Leaks can be challenging to find - even with UV. When you change out coolant next time use Rover coolant - it already contains UV dye and then you don't have the possibilities of added UV dye being incompatible with the coolant - (I only use those "universal" dye's if I am desperate.) What's...

    Cooling System/Crossover Pipe

    Just picked up a 2016 Landmark after a couple of years of searching and noticed that it is leaking coolant, barely, but it is leaking from the water pump. Not a big deal, since I had planned on changing out the entire cooling system anyway, well most of it. Here is the estimate I got from an...

    2010 LR4 Air suspension need advice

    Yeah - that as well, I didn't find that terrible to be honest, just take your time!

    2015 LR4 Coolant Issue - Nothingburger or...

    Great replies – thanks all. Seems like a coolant epidemic is common with last-gen [15'-16] LR4s getting up there in mileage and a decade, third owners dipping a toe etc. Re: 2015 LR4, has 96k mi. – no previous issues. Curious, worst case scenario [bricked engine] how would you guys test your...

    All the problems happening!

    Coolant expansion tank and bleeder valve replaced. No error messages and no codes, first time since buying it! Still need to work out the front right suspension issue.

    Are those coolant pipes one-piece and metal? Where did you get them?

    Intermittent clicking sound at idle 5.0L V8

    Sounds like I am in good company. Waiting for the replacement idler pulley to come in on Tues. Also looking g at coolant hose replacement as PM. It's about time. NOT looking to do timing chains :)

    No heat on driver side after adding Bar's Leaks to coolant

    My 2012 LR4 HSE Luxury (140,000 miles) has been emitting the smell of coolant for a while and now needs topping up every couple of weeks. Today I put 24 oz of Bar's Leaks into the coolant expansion tank and drove the vehicle for a couple of hours with the heat and the fan on high. The...

    Electric Oil Pump Control Solenoid on a 2016 3.0l?

    If you're doing the chains on the v6 you should probably replace the supercharger coupler and the oil for it while you are at it. Front and rear coolant cross over pipes too.

    2015 LR4 Coolant Issue - Nothingburger or...

    I'd be very concerned about purchasing something known to be sensitive to overheating with an active coolant leak driven by a teenager or young adult. Teenagers and young adults do very dumb things, speaking from experience.

    Looking to purchase timing chain tools

    Yep, black part pulls off therefore releasing the spring. Hoping everything is ok, there was a little too much white smoke initially so will check the coolant. Still trying to figure out the transmission noise.

    Troubleshooting coolant vacuum fill failure

    Today I got back under the car and connected the radiator hose properly but got another vacuum leak so I put in close to 8 liters of coolant and then hooked up the pressure tester, but this time I am struggling to generate even a few PSI of pressure. No external leaks that I can see either (and...

    Bad ECM or something else?

    ...really Pushing the engine hard and it’s hot out. Sitting at idle, there’s no requirement for charge air cooling as the SC really isn’t working, and hence the pump will not turn on. If the pump’s not on, it won’t push engine coolant through the charge air coolant and “outer cooler” on the front.

    Check engine light on

    Did you have a mess with coolant spilling onto connectors? I would inspect the connectors.
