How coolant-loss symptoms are differentiated
An external coolant leak, internal coolant loss, trapped air, thermostat malfunction, water-pump control fault and radiator/fan problem can all trigger overheating. On supercharged V6 and V8 vehicles, inspect applicable crossover pipes, thermostat housings, pumps and related connections; on Ingenium engines identify the correct cooling circuit and electric pump arrangement. Pressure-test a cold system, examine dried residue and compare sensor readings as temperature rises. Never assume a plastic pipe is the cause without locating the leak.
Manufacturer-specific considerations
JLR Special Service Message 74856 discusses coolant pump codes P2B61-73 and P26CB-72 in certain Ingenium 2.0 petrol applications, with a specific campaign history. That information is an applicability example, not a universal diagnosis.
Repair confirmation
Following repair, use the correct fill/bleed procedure, verify fan and pump operation and confirm temperature stability. Stop driving if the engine is overheating.
Later LR4 applications with the 3.0L supercharged V6 have a different cooling arrangement from earlier V8 models.
How the concern should be diagnosed
Identify the engine before pressure testing and inspecting crossover connections, water pump and thermostat components.
