iggy50 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 hi y'all, i have just bought my first landrover, its a discovery series 1 200tdi... i lost my heating and took the car to a mechanic. when i returned for a report on problem he informed me that the head or head gasket was kaput! problem is, i live in bulgaria and there is a slight language problem [actually a huge language problem], and as i am still a newbie to the pleasures/pitfalls of owning a landrover, i dont own a manual and the 'landy' engine is still a mystery to me and hubbs. the oil appears to be ok but water sprayed all over engine!! help irene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 The Tdi engines are pretty basic and should contain no surprises for any competent mechanic even if he/she doesn't speak da lingo. There are a number of online bookshops selling workshop manuals I think, though check as a lot of them only start from 300Tdi vehicles. I don't have a 200 manual handy but somebody will probably come along shortly who does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxminer Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Just a thought, have you checked to see if one of the hoses have split, it`s happened to me a couple of times it might save you some money. Foxminer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
