The FBH won't be running after a 60 mile run. I have seen steam from the front tyres on a cold damp day as the tyres' warmth dries it off slightly. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I was going to say, the FBH shouldn't be running after that sort of journey.

I am sure my FBH does the same guys after a run - I park in garage and can hear it buzzing and small amount of smoke when it is cold outside after I switch off engine Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

It comes on automatically when temperature drops below certain point - around 5-7 deg I think from experience

The FBH is on the near side though... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders 2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed |
