Why does a Land Rover display low coolant level?
1 Answers
There are two main reasons why a Land Rover displays low coolant level: 1. Coolant can evaporate, leading to insufficient coolant being displayed. Open the auxiliary reservoir cap to check the coolant level. If the coolant level is found to be below the minimum line, add coolant to the normal level. Confirm that the dashboard warning is due to low coolant. Connect a coolant pressure gauge; the auxiliary reservoir cap indicates the standard cooling system pressure is 200KPa. Use the pressure gauge to inject 200KPa pressure for inspection. Check all coolant hoses, connections, radiator, water pump, and other related components of the cooling system. 2. There is a leakage in the water pump. The water pump has sealing measures to prevent leakage, including a water seal. The water seal ring and shaft are press-fitted between the impeller and the bearing to seal the coolant. If coolant leaks past the water seal, it can be discharged through the drain hole. If the water seal is found to be leaking and cannot be repaired, the water pump needs to be replaced.
