Also check the terminals on the battery itself.
I had an issue recently where I also thought it's an earth issue.
Checked everywhere and even though the Negative terminal seemed tight it wasn't re ... |

Ok so just as a recap, I have a 2009 defender 90 with 180 000km on the clock.
I've had the high running temps for at least the last 80 000km(since I got my ultra gauge).
I've changed intercoole ... |

Put the low range lever in neutral. Chances are very slim that the potential thief would know how the short lever works.
Just remember to then put a brick behind wheel

It seems as if we could have a similar issue..
I don't know why some vehicles run so much cooler than mine.

Mine was the first puma EGR blocked by Walter.
I then also had that strange reduced power mode for a long time.
They then unplugged it and it seems like everything is back to normal now.

Ontdekker I see you are pretty close.
Take your landy to Walter at LRXtreme, they're in PTA east.
I too had an issue where the Puma would run in a reduced power mode, it seems as if my problem wa ... |

The past couple of days has been about 39Deg C here and my temps were consistenly higher. I however did not have su ... |

ok yes, I am not sure about the exact details.
The most important thing is that my temps are down by 10degC.
I was just concerned that I may have been running too cold, which is also not ideal. ... |

The standard defender thermostat only opens at (i think) about 88degC but the FLII thermostat already open at about 82degC.

That is pretty mu ... |

I see there has not been any response regarding this topic.
So how about we just get some feedback from people using something like an ultra gauge on a regular basis.
