Hi all

First post as a newbe just got me first Landy she's a V reg 99 plate 90" county. I'm in need of a new radiator for her as this one is leaking.


Need to know a few things before i rush out and buy one. First where is the best place to buy a new rad from? Second is this something i can fit myself or do i need a garage to fit it?

Thanks Jay

I've started getting stuff from Rockingham Landrovers as they only sell the parts they'd be happy fitting. You could try Rogers of Bedford. Fitting isn't too bad but I had a right pain fitting the oil feed pipes on my 90 200 TDi and getting them to stop leaking.

It's an easy enough swap, no real setting up as such, just take the old one out, put the new one in. Can be a bit messy, and a bit or an arse getting some of the nuts and bolts apart as with any LR job.
Take care to force out any airlocks when you refill the coolant.
