Marko has the car only just stared playing up? I would change your thermostat as well. That sounds dead to me. [img]http://www.fuelly.com/driver/rob2529/range-rover[img/]

Marko have you had a look what temp your running? If you use the hidden menus option/list 7 is for the temp. If you drive sensibly you can get an idea of the temp and what's going on. [img]http://www.fuelly.com/driver/rob2529/range-rover[img/]

Might not mean much to you but a few numbers would help us here. It could be a case your gauge is goosed. Anything is possible with these cars. Use the wiki for a how to on how to access the hidden menus. Worth it even just to know how to do it. Repeatedly overheating the engine can't be a good thing I would have thought [img]http://www.fuelly.com/driver/rob2529/range-rover[img/]
