rapid overheating

<< < (2/7) > >>

bogie:
Could be a duff thermostat,stuck shut or half open?????????????????

burgerman:
"topped it up and checked for leaks" seeems to contradict its self, Ie - if no leaks there would be no need to top it up ?? Im not being cocky with this comment  :)  I would pressure testing the water system if you are able to, or get a local garage to do it for you ??  good luck

bogie:
Get it sniffed,costs a fiver!

Range Rover Blues:
300 TDi has the water pump quite high up in the water jacket, so if it looses some water it will overheat.  It must be leaking somewhere.  Ours went on the heater pipe behind the head, it was chaffing.

jkseries:
I've got lots of things to check.

After today I'm wondering about the thermostat.

On one of my trips today the temperature was fine. On another the needle moved quite high then back down then up again.

Interesting stuff
