Naks Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 fr*ck!!! the coolant leak is back! while driving home from work on Friday night the LBB alarm came on again. Pulled into the nearest garage to check the coolant level and it was ok. Got home 10km later (doing 40kmh) and the coolant level was way down and dripping on the pavement. The coolant is definitely leaking out onto the pavement, so at least I know there's a leak somewhere. It is probably the same one I had a couple of week ago from the cracked rubber blank-off on the oil cooler (somewhere underneath the turbo heat shield). I crawled underneath the Disco and found spots of oil on the bottom of the transfer box that seem to be coming from above it. The oil is very thin, and it could be mixed with water - that's never a good sign, is it? Pretty much everything else is also coated in a thin film of oil. Can anyone take a look at these pics and let me know if this normal or not? http://picasaweb.google.com/n.sunassee/Disco2# - the last 5 pics. thanks!

Les Henson Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 There's no coolant near the transfer box, so it's probably just oil. You can usually determine the location of the leak by where it drips onto the ground under the vehicle. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinhollings Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 would be thinking that the leak round the bellhousing is diesel from the fpr http://www.discovery2.co.uk/Fpr.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
