I have a very load water gurgling sound inside the cabin. When the engine is cold for about the first 10 minutes of driving for the day.
I have had radiator taken out and cleaned. It was 85% blocked. They gave it a good recondition and the noise was still there.
Has anybody had this problem,
everything is fine in the way of no overheating things like that.

I had the same thing in my 99 V8 disco and discovered that it stopped as soon as I topped up the coolant to the correct level, can onky deduce it was the heater with not enough liquid.

I wish it could be that easy. As I mentioned the whole radiator was ripped out and reconditioned. it is definatly something to do with the heater. I can only assume when they reconditioned the radiator the whole system was flushed. They said they did and it was filthy.

Sounds like you may have an airlock in the heater plumbing.

Yeh, i wish it could be that easy. unfortunatly when the engine heats up the gurgling goes. It is very loud like trying to rush a heap of water through a small opening. Does anybody know about the heater system. do you have to pul the whole dash out.
