Hi got a question I need answering got a 55 sport petrol supercharger,
Every now and then I get the temp level going upto the red? After a few seconds it drops? I looked at water level and had a air lock removed but it still happens every now and then?

Any ideas could something be sticking? Stat or anything else possible

Thanks
Rob

Hi when does it do it , in traffic , on motor way , under heavy load ! 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Could be a faulty thermostat. 2014 L405 SDV8 RR Autobiography

2012 RRS SDV6 HSE -Orkney Grey with A/B bodykit - Now Gone
2007 RRS TDV6 HSE - Zermatt Silver - Gone

I could be driving alone stop and restart the car and it will do it? I ordered a switch today land rover think it could be that? It's mad coz it over heats and with in seconds it back to normal but my old heart is pumping when it's doing it

IIRC, a 55 plate is in the chassis range for the petrol models to have the Aux coolant pump to be wired the wrong way round.

4.2L V8 Supercharged Only VIN- range :5A901924-7A109767 are affected.

The cause is "the electrical harness supply and earth for the auxiliary coolant pump may be found to be cross connected in connector C3006, causing the Engine Control Module (ECM) to reduce power to prevent damage because the pump flow is low. The auxiliary coolant pump will be degraded because it has been running backwards".

Would that cause a air lock as well? Mine was fine until I had something changed on the stearing a angle join or something like that?

did it just air lock the once ? Do you have to top up the water level ? 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Not sure think I let some out last night? Removed pipes topped up put back together and back to normal
But was unsure if it should suck from top right and goes to a black roundish box maybe stat?

ok re check the coolant when the engine is cold ,and check it is on the cold mark on the header tank , don't over fill it .How long has it been over heating for ? 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

It's on and off been prob about 3 4 days doesn't happen all the time which is mad it will go up then drop when it does it?

dont think it is the Auxillary Electric Water Pump as it puts a light on , and you get power loss 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

No warning lights what so ever come on?
