Thread: What happened to your Discovery 2 today?

Popped into town on Saturday, a three minute trip, and most of my coolant dumped on the ground. Engine locked, sump over full. The low coolant alarm worked though. Car ran perfectly for 6 hours in the mountains the day before. Happy days, as someone here would say.

so it blew a hose AND a headgasket,, ??

Well, I suspect a head gasket was the initial cause, but possibly something much worse.
No blown hose, just dumped out the overflow/cap.

doesn't sound good unfortunately, pressurizing could b sign of the head, combustion gases going into cooling system

Did you buy just the monitor and plug into all the cars sensors ? Or the kit with all the sensors ?

If the kit, where did you put all the sensors, can you give some pics ?

Yes, I'm sure you're right.
I dare say I will be in touch with you if I find there is anything repairable. Can't even bring myself to look at it at the moment.

Nothing really happened to my d2 as we’re in Japan. I did see this Defender tho. Sadly however it’s the only LR that I’ve seen in the last 2 weeks

Bled the front brakes,, including replacing fluid in the front lines. I figure its probably due at 17 years.....
