Today I while doing a oil change on the Defender I noticed a small amount of coolant on the passenger side chassis rail , After some investigation I noticed it was coming from the heater , Looks to be the valve . It’s not a huge amount it’s about a drip every few seconds. I can’t tell where it’s coming from but it may be coming from around the hose clamp its forming a drop at the bottom around the mounting screw. Is there some sort of issue with these units? Do I just replace it or is it something simple like a loose clamp. It only happens when i turn the heater on hot .

I'm pretty sure its that valve, as its only from the back of it somewhere, I'm also thinking hose clamps.Originally Posted by flagg
