Working on 2nd Land Rover. This one is a 2012 LR4 the wife drives.
She loves it, aside from maintenance.
Dealing with the leaking coolant issue now. Replaced water pump and front crossover but coolant still pouring out from front. I don't think it's the back but going to try again tomorrow.
Fingers crossed it's easy to find.

Having same coolant issue with wife’s 2012 Land Rover LR4, replaced water pump, thermostat, front and rear crossover pipes, and coolant tank but still leaking coolant from front and puddling on skid plate. Wondering if oil cooler pipe to water pump and/or oil cooler gasket could be the culprit. Will power wash and run pressure test but does anyone have any other ideas?

Welcome!!!

Yes, very possible it's the gaskets in the oil cooler pipe along with a poor design - that was my issue on the 2013.

Be aware that a new water pump will require a new pipe and new gaskets in there as the design has changed - you will need to change that entire area to the new design - which is much better...

Here is some insomnia material I put together for this project - it might be useful.
