It sure would. I need to climb under mine and investigate a transmission fluid leak underneath the radiator. It doesn't seem that bad at the moment.

mine was pass side. drivers side (SEEMS) ok.
easy fix is to grind off old clamp and replace hose using a good hose clamp.
on mine the airbox was removed and access was quite good.(lr wise). Just be aware the plug is one of those strange types that is not carried in most breakdown kits.
Should have took some pics but there was more oil under there then Bass Straight!

Is it one of those push on fittings? If so should have some at work. Unless it is something peculiar to LR.

sorry Phil,I was talking about the filler plug in the front of the gearbox.I think its called a torx.

I won't say I told you so but.......I told you so !!

also found rattle at 2300 rpm.exhaust pipe was pressing on bolt that hold the balence thingee at the rear diff.(cut off thread)

Great design, isn't it. For a while, I had quite a collection of warranty tailpipe sections with a nice hole worn in them from that bolt.
