STC1090...EAS Leak Detection Spray LRNASGP2...Electrical Connector SYL500010...Brake Pin (Freelander) Locally Sourced: Oil.Nippon Denso ND 8 WARRANTY CLAIMS: Normal warranty policy and procedures apply. NOTE: A coolant specification change has been made for vehicles. The 2005 specification"g48" fluid is to be used for every FLUID CHANGE situation. The original Texaco AFC coolant fluid may be used and topped up until a coolant change is required. Mixing Texaco AFC and BASF G48 for top-up purposes is permitted CAUTION: Mixing of the BASF G48 with Texaco XLC coolant used in LR3, Freelander, Discovery Series II and late 4.0/4.6 can result in premature erosion of the cylinder heads or other cooling system deterioration. Unapproved blending of coolants is to be avoided. Warranty coverage could be affected by the use of unapproved coolants or the incorrect blending of fluids. Failure to use specified fluids could lead to component failure. If component failures are found to be caused by use of improper fluids, warranty charge-backs could be imposed.
