When we got out first RR (1987 Classic) we were told that if a Range Rover doesn't leak oil there is a problem with it!! Rolling Eyes

Is it saying it when you first start it up on your drive, if so might just be the angle its sitting at try and turn the car round and see if that changes anything.
Or has it lost any water, if so get a pressure test on it and see if its just a hose leaking.

Water is full yes does it on drive maybe slope on drive but can't see it possibly sensor , no water lost

If you've not got a coolant leak if may not have the correct mix of anti-freeze and water,have your local independent check it,if the car senses its a weak mix it will give a low coolant message on the dash.needs to be 50-50 mix Thumbs Up

I will check this , can't see any leaks plus level is good , maybe sensor failure as I have read its common fault , what is the preferred coolant anyone???

When i change mine i use o.a.t(organic acid technology) its usually orange in colour,as you dont know whats in yours give it a good flush through to remove the old as not all anti-freeze mixes together.

Check both cubby boxes in the boot for water in the infotainment gubins and the fuse box on the other side,pull the plugs out and look for corrosion,if none get a diagnostics check done see if any codes come up.

If all clear and you still have problems a packet of swan vestas and a gallon of petrol will sort it Smile
