Replacing the Radiator in my $1500 Range Rover Sport! (L320) - Episode 6

I bought a 2006 Range Rover Sport for $1500, and its radiator needs to be replaced, so we're doing that in this video! We'll go over the whole process including the coolant bleed procedure.
To see how to remove the fan and fan shroud, check out the previous video where I replace the belts: • CRUNCHY. My $1500 Rang...

I've seen so many Range Rovers that were badly overheated and destroyed over minor cooling problems that could have been addressed. It's great to see one getting some love!

Thanks! I think the coolant bleed procedure being more complex than a typical car might be a factor haha

[@gloriadejuana5131]

Wow. So many interconnected parts. You are so knowledgeable. I'm learning a lot but maybe I'll bring you mine!😅

Would a damaged radiator cause bubbling in the expansion tank . Done a head gasket test and no sign of it being blown , a lot of pressure on the coolant system caps blowing off ( brand new cap ) that is .

[@frenchineer]

What engine do you have? Did the pressure buildup start after getting the new cap or before?
