Removing the Thermostat on a Land Rover Discovery

Model: Land Rover Discovery MK 3, LR3, Discovery 3, L319 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Thermostat

In this video tutorial, you will see the main steps to replace the thermostat on a Land Rover Discovery. First, lift the hood and start removing the clamps from the radiator hose by loosening them with a socket wrench: then let all the coolant drain out. At this point, disconnect the thermostat from the hose and replace it with the new one. Perform a coolant bleed and then add the new coolant to the appropriate reservoir; reassemble everything, remembering to tighten the hose clamps properly.
