Our friend Troy at Addicted Motors assembled the original Rover V8 version of this kit, and this is that same proven combination adapted to fit the Discovery 2 cooling system. Each piece is chosen to work with the others so your Rover runs cooler and steadier whether you are crawling slowly off road, sitting in summer traffic, or working the engine hard on the highway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"16:1-16:945;1121-2065\"\u003eThe kit includes three parts. First is the PEL500110G low temperature thermostat, a remote 82°C (180°F) soft spring unit that lives in its own housing between the hoses and opens sooner than the factory thermostat at roughly 88°C (190°F), so coolant starts moving toward the radiator earlier. Second is the FlowKooler high flow water pump, built with a CNC machined billet impeller that moves more coolant and builds more pressure than a standard pump, which is exactly what the aluminum V8 needs at low engine speed. It replaces the STC4378 pump and includes a gasket. Third is the Hayden severe duty fan clutch, a thermal unit that locks up harder as the radiator heats to pull far more air through the core. It replaces the ERR4996 viscous coupling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"18:1-18:311;2067-2377\"\u003eTogether these three parts attack the V8's tendency to run warm from every angle. The thermostat lowers the target temperature, the pump increases coolant flow, and the fan clutch increases airflow. It is a simple, proven combination and one of the best things you can do for the longevity of your Discovery 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"20:1-20:396;2379-2774\"\u003eOne fitment note for the 2003 to 2004 4.6 V8. On those Rovers the standard fan will not bolt up to the new fan clutch, so we offer an alternative version of this kit that adds the earlier ERR4960 radiator fan blade. If you have a 2003 to 2004 4.6, choose the alternative kit so everything bolts together correctly, or reach out and we will make sure you get the right combination for your Rover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"22:1-24:111;2776-2954\"\u003eFits:\u003cbr\u003e Discovery 2 L318 (1999 to 2002) 4.0 liter Rover V8 Petrol\/Gas \u003cbr\u003eDiscovery 2 L318 (2003 to 2004) 4.6 liter Rover V8 Petrol\/Gas, alternative kit with ERR4960 fan blade required\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"26:1-27:31;2956-3013\"\u003ePart Number: ADDICTEDKITD2 Free shipping to the lower 48!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"32:1-32:10;3202-3211\"\u003e[FAQ]\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"33:1-33:52;3212-3263\"\u003eWhat comes in the Addicted Discovery 2 cooling kit?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"35:1-35:333;3265-3597\"\u003eYou get three parts, the PEL500110G low temperature thermostat, the FlowKooler high flow water pump, and the Hayden severe duty fan clutch. Together they lower the operating temperature, raise coolant flow, and pull more air through the radiator, which is the most effective way to address the Discovery 2 V8's tendency to run warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"37:1-37:39;3599-3637\"\u003eWill this kit fit my 2003 or 2004 4.6?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"39:1-39:287;3639-3925\"\u003eThe thermostat, water pump, and fan clutch fit the Discovery 2 V8, but on the 2003 to 2004 4.6 the standard fan will not bolt up to the new fan clutch.
