Recently change the thermostat on my 2016 Sport and had the same issue. I ran my sport for a couple minutes to the point of almost overheating, then shut it down. After that I opened up the overflow valve on the reservoir until I started seeing the coolant come out. Waited a couple more minutes, then top off the reservoir with more coolant, and low and behold, no more over heating. I want to thank you for this video, because I was surely headed to the dealership in morning 😂.

This is an exceptional, well thought out solution. Good job! I'm going to apply this on my rrs sc tomorrow I'm convinced this is it.

Fill it up park on a hill run the engine with the heater on full top up if level drops try keep the bottle as the highest point run for 10 mins then fit cap wait few minutes then turn the screws from front to back

Ok....I just bought a 07 Range Rover HSE this Week. I have a Overheating problem. Changed my thermostat at my shop yesterday. Still Was Overheating but the temp was going up and down. My screw for the tank reservoir was missing when I bought the truck. Ordered a new one....Once I put it in I hope it works

Water and antifreeze has a different boiling points. If you put more water, it overheats faster and buildup more pressure. Also, if your cup not holding properly pressure that will lower boiling point in the water in the antifreeze will boil and convert to a steam.

Can someone PLEASE TELL ME where the second bleeder screw is on a 2005 lr3 4.4? I see the one on the reservoir but can’t locate the second one mentioned in a video. Thanx

Remove plastic cover on the engine, it’s to the left of the thermostat closer to front of the engine but at the top, you can just follow the line from water pump or thermostat

My 05 didnt have one either, I added one

You need Havoline xlc

Water? Should be distilled but no coolant?

I just bought my first landrover i bought it from a lady who had problems over heating so she couldn't fix it and jer son put a new cap on it so anyway i bought it and On my 02 land Rover freelander se 2.5.i found that her son put the wrong radiator cap on it it was blowing water every where out of the resavor the cap said 200on it and it was tje wrong threads on the cap the cap has heavy duty threads and the resavor has then small threds on it and my temperature gage never got over senter and it was blowing water every where from under the cap no where elts so im hopping that's the prob

Makes perfect sense, I have a radiator pressure tester and one of the test caps fits tight but leaks, so similar situation, if needs to hold 13-15psi to work properly and normal work temperature with a warm engine is 195 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit
