Having trouble bleeding cooling system on 2006 Range Rover. No heat and fan is blowing

I replace the water pump and thermostat in my 2006 Land Rover Range rover. There is no heat and it seems to still have air in the system. I have spent 1.2 hours with car at temp and bleeding through expansion tank screw. Just seems to go on and on with open and closing screw.

    You mean you just do not have heat or the car is overheat?

  • Greg Judah Feb 22, 2013

    Both.......The car is overheating and there is no heat. At Idle it is fine as soon as I drive it it over heats. It was idleing in my drive while I was trying to "Burp" the system and it never over heated. The minute I drove it it overheated. The heat in the interior doesnot get warm under and conditions.

Hi, have you opened the bleed screws on the cooling system this will expel any air in the system then run for 10 mins with coolant cap off then allow to idle with cap on. If still having problems check for coolant flow. What engine is in Range Rover.

The easy way need to be done:
-Make sure the is not presure in the cooling system before do thisor release carefully.
-Disconnect the upper hose from the radiator and fill water (coolant)
through the hose to the engine. If water can't get in beacuse the thermostat is closed. Simply remove it and fill untill full.

  • Greg Judah Feb 22, 2013

    The system is full and I feel like the thermostat is not opening since it gets over heated in a minite or 2 when driving. At idle the temp goes to normal. The thermostat is new as I just replaced it. This is crazy. I even replace the water pump a week ago. I can't believe a new thermostat is bad. The other issue is no heat inside the car. Just blows cold. Does not matter if the system is on auto or manual.

Is your temperature gauge working now? That is of more concern then your heater as you wouldnt know if your engine was overheating until its too late. Your heater core could be clogged, they get clogged quite easily. You can flush them or replace. The part is inexpensive but on some models you have to take out dash to replace them, but on other models it only takes about 30 mins and a few bolts.

SOURCE: OVER HEATING

In the fan circuit...You have a temp switch screwed on the radiator, a fuze and a relay in the fuze box plus a fan.  Swap the relay with another relay, replace the fuze.  The other fan should come on when the a/c is turned on.  If you fix the fans and it still overheats, you may have a BLOWN HEAD GASKET.  ALSO ARE YOU BLEEDING THE AIR FROM THE SYSTEM?  DO YOU SMELL EXHAUST IN THE COOLANT?

Maybe, Terminals are old POS that no longer conduct.  Hit your local auto parts store and buy some new Terminals.  Get something that Is a strong Conductor.  I suggest Brass.  Also Its Important to get the right size Terminal.  I would also put money on your Main Power Wires being real heavy gage that will not fit into a generic Terminal.  So make sure you get a terminal your gage of wire will easily fit into to avoid head ache and the hacking of your nice heavy gage Into lets say Civic gage to fit a too small terminal which mind your will work However you will have  less power weaker connections ultimately Find your self with a car that will not start.  It does not  hurt to also sand any white crude or rust that would further interupt your new connection,  Complete that and she be ready to fire up and hand you your next task.
Good Luck,

Why is my 2008 Range Rover overheating still

Usually people check everything, change the thermostat and forget to check if the cooling fans work? The other possibility is that the water pump is failing.

The simplest thing would be if there is a big air lock in the system and the water isn't circulating properly. No heat coming out of vents is a symptom of that because the heater core is high up in the system behind the dash. Read this Tip I wrote. Raising the front of the vehicle is important to fill the heater core as well as putting heating on MAX.

2003 Range Rover runs hot I replaced the thermostat but it has pressure in the line that pushes water out and causes it to run hot

You have trapped air in the cooling circuit. Or your water pump may not be operational. Or you have blockage somewhere else in the cooling circuit. By the way...... Did you check and or replace the cooling system cap. You should test that cap once a year.
Some of these cooling systems can be tricky. They place BLEEDER VALVES at the high points in the cooling system. Allowing you to remove all the trapped air out of the closed loop cooling system. The cooling system has to have a certain amount of pressure for purposes of flow. That pressure should be less than the value stated on the cooling cap. Look for bleeder valves, - you will have to fill the vehicle with them open. And then Fill and bleed as the engine is running. When the engine is running you will crack the bleeder open until fluid comes out close it and repeat several times until all the air is removed from the system.
The fact that the system is building up pressure is not an indication that the pump is working. ( think steam engine) when the fluid approaches boiling temp the pressure increases. Please do not use just water to fill your system.
(A) It lowers the boiling temperature of the fluid and
(B) Promotes corrosion (oxidation) in the block and cooling circuit.
I hope this helps you......

Overheating

I would recommend that you bleed all air out of the cooling system. The bleeder valve is located on top of the engine. Once engine starts to overheat or when you can hear bubbling back into the overflow bottle, turn car off and open bleeder valve. If you see bubbling you have air in your system. Bleed the system a couple of times and see if this helps.A heat sensor sending unit which controls activation of the electric fan could also have failed.But is the heat sensor is properly working then check the radiator cap is it properly fitted or got loose.If its loose it will release the pressure and car will overheat.But if the radiator cap is properly closed.Then its time to check the HEAD GASKET.As you have mostly replaced all the possible faults for overheating and if other mentioned possibilities are checked OK.Then its time to check and replace head gasket. Thanks. you can rate this solution and show your appreciation.

Heater output goes from hot to cold

It sounds like you have a blocked heater core ( Small radiator that the interior fan blows through to create the heat inside the car), If you can get access to the heater core pipes you might be able to flush it out but usually they need replacing.

Range rover have no heat or ac

First thing I would do is check your fuses. If all of your fuses are intact, I would make the assumption that it must be the control assembly itself (your actual dash control unit) since to my knowledge it is the only point where the two exclusive systems (heating and AC) are integrated with each other, aside from sharing the duct and to some extent, the electrical system. Being that neither the heating NOR cooling system will work, it seems the only common denominator.

If you have blown fuse(s), remember that fuses almost never blow for no reason (wierd things DO happen on occasion!), and this is usually just a symptom of a deeper issue, such as a short or fault in your electrical system such as your fans, or other components, drawing too much current. Locked fan rotors will blow fuses, for example. Having to replace the fuse again in short order would indeed indicate the need to troubleshoot further.

Good luck!
