Can you try and look to see which one is leaking. Mine sprung a leak from the small vent pipe into the top left of the rad, when looking at the car from the front 2016 AB SDV8 Barolo black |

Unfortunately this is what was reported by the garage. I was hoping someone would know which hoses they are talking about.

Got a bit more info from the garage. Apparently it's the top radiator hose that leaking but, unfortunately the latest version from Land Rover will only fit in conjunction with the other 2 hoses. Not sure what the other two hoses are.

If it is the hose I think it is, I have heard of an independent fixing this with a simple o ring of the right size rather than replacing the whole hose assembly. Current:

OK the part number is LR034643 which has been superseded by LRO80118+LRO80119 and LRO88120

OK got the leak fixed. It turns out the leak was in the top hose where it connected to the Radiator. As I had new brake pads all round they did not charge me for fixing it. They just fitted a new seal inside the hose and all good.

Good stuff. Whilst the hoses may be reportedly brittle, the bulk of them are sealed by the o rings and it’s only them that need replaced to resell stuff. Seems mad that LR themselves don’t list the rings seperatey. V8 or else ... |

I have a small leak from the top breather pipe, left hand side top, before I break it could someone tell me how to take off, is it a case of just prising each side ? If someone knows the “O” ring size would be even better. |
