Every day in the morning check the fluids (cold) in my wife's GEMS '98 Disco SE7 (North American version), the top hose is collapsed by vacuum.
When I remove the expansion cap tank the vacuum eases and the pipe expands to normal.
I replaced the expansion tank cap and the coolant lines all seem to be functioning and the car cools normally.
The only other symptom is a gurgling in the heater when the car is driven. I was told by a Rover master technician that the cure for the gurgling is to swap the inlet and outlet to the heater.
Can anyone proved any clue as to the vacuum situation and any info about the gurgling and shoes swapping?
Thank you.
