How do you bleed a Freelander cooling system?
Open cap, loosen 8mm bolt and heater hose bleed screw. bleed until coolant runs without air bubbles from lower valve, tighten the 8mm bolt. Keep expansion tank topped up as a low level can draw more air into the system. Eventually coolant will flow from valve on upper heater.
How do you bleed the coolant on a Land Rover Discovery 2?
actually you use the bleed screw and fill the engine thru the bleed screw. First fill the bottle up and leave the coolant bottle cap off and then fill the rest of the way thru the bleed screw. then wait for the bubbles to go away and you will be fine. put the caps back on and run the vehicle.
How do you bleed a Range Rover?
To bleed the brakes, you’ll need to complete the steps as follows:
- Find the brake bleeder screw.
- Loosen the screw.
- Place a small flexible hose over the end of the bleeder screw.
- Have someone slowly pump the brake pedal a few times.
- Open the bleeder screw.
- Check for any air bubbles.
- Tighten the bleeder screw.
Why is my Land Rover Discovery overheating?
While there are a variety of reasons your Land Rover Discovery is overheating, the most common 3 are a coolant leak (water pump, radiator, hose etc.), the radiator fan, or a failed thermostat. Coolant leak (water pump, radiator, hose etc.)
Where does the coolant go in a Land Rover Discovery?
Top up to the upper level indicator mark of the COLD FILL RANGE, located on the side of the expansion tank. Use only a 50% mix of water and approved antifreeze.
Is coolant the same as antifreeze?
Engine coolant, also known as antifreeze, is mixed with water to keep the radiator from freezing in extreme cold and overheating in extreme heat. There are many different types of coolant, so it’s important to know what variety is right for your car or truck.
How do you Bleed coolant in a Range Rover?
Only when the engine is cold, remove the bleeder screw from the black plastic tee, remove the coolant cap and start poring coolant into the bottle till it reaches the top, the continue to pore until, you get a steady stream of coolant coming from the bleed hole.
How can I bleed air out of my radiator?
There are two other methods available for bleeding air from your cooling system. Some vehicles actually have bleeder valves specifically for this problem, located at the top or in front of the radiator.

Where is the bleeder valve on a car?
Some vehicles actually have bleeder valves specifically for this problem, located at the top or in front of the radiator. Open the valve and bleed the air trapped in the upper portion of the radiator. You can also jack your car to bleed the air from the cooling system.
Why do I have air pockets in my cooling system?
Air trapped in the lines of your cooling system can make a perfectly healthy system run as though it’s malfunctioning. These air pockets accumulate over time and can cause overheating by impeding the flow of coolant through the system.
