watched the clip as i have a recently purchased 2007 Freelander 2, and wanted to add some anti-freeze. the expansion tank only seems to have oil in it. the car runs fine, it hasn't been burning oil or overheating or anything i would expect when there is a problem like a head-gasket issue. i had assumed i had looked at the wrong part, at least i know it isnt that now. i guess i have a trip to the garage in my future, time to call the bank and see if i can re-mortgage
Hi there, res that does sound like the head gasket has gone, have you checked to see if there is water in your oil too you would see a foamy milky colored liquid in there? If not someone could have poured oil into the coolant reservoir by mistake? It would be unlikely but you couldn't rule it out I would flush the system refill and see if it happens again. Ross
Hi Mate, what is the coolant for LRFL 2 2013 Diesel? I got this a 2nd hand, and I was trying to check the colour of the coolant, but I can seem to figure out the colour, any idea what is the colour?
Hi there, I am pretty sure they recommend using Castrol SF coolant, it is pink in colour, have you checked the specification table in your owners manual? Unfortunately I have only ever worked on the Petrol models. Ross
Hi mate. Great vid. I've got the 2014 sd4 dynamic( auto) had it 5 year, go no intentions of getting rid just yet
I have had mine about the same time just wondering what to get next for me now.

Hi Ryan, no worries at all and yea its pretty well hidden on these, glad it helped.
Hi very good vid and im new to freelander and wondered just how much fluid to buy to refill the brake fluid from empty.thanks

Can we just top up the engine oil when the oil gets totally black colored?
if it is that black I would recommend doing a full flush and fully replace it,
