Urgent, part needed
« on: December 27, 2007, 14:42:34 »
badgersrover is on his way into north London, and the radiator top hose has given up the ghost and is leaking coolant.
has anybody in that area, got a discovery 200 tdi radiator top hose for sale etc. as all of the landrover garages in the area haven't got the part in stock.
many thanks

Tell him to find a Halfords or bike shop and get a fat innertube cut it slip it over the original hose and wrap it with loads of tape. Bit of a bodge but it does work :)
so many hills , so little time ....

Hey guys, still got the problem, the issue is that its got the "Kenlowe Drip" so the innertube thing wont work as its leaking where the pipe meets the radiator.

Just got home.  Am crawling into bed now (am not as young as i used to be!)

Will get a hose from somewhere hopefully today, just had to keep stopping and checking the reservoir.

See you all at some point in 2008 when i have slept the last 24 hours off!! lol
