Hoping it won't take too long to sort out but apparently it will take a couple of days or so.
Oh and as for what coolant is used, it does mention it in the manual (which I don't have to hand), but I think it was a 50/50 mix of water and Texaco XLC antifreeze coolant.
I bought some Rover coolant, I have had mine go 'low' twice (first time just a couple of mm below the coolant tank MAX level, then again this past weekend, where I had to fill it again with whatever is containined in two LARGE turkey basters. They did a pressure test on it and said it's fine. This engine seems to use coolant, I do not understand, I have seen no evidence on the garage floor but will be watching the level like a hawk.
I also had TPMS fault message, and a 'no monitoring in right front tire' message, which they said was a spurious software glitch.
I'm becoming increasingly disattisfied with this vehicle and all it's niggling little issues, when everything is fine I love it, but I value reliability highly and after 15k miles I'm starting to see a lot of strange issues.

Even I had the same warning pop up every morning when start the car for the first time(Odo reading was less than 700 miles), I called up the dealer and they said some evoque(s) have a slow leak of the coolant and LR does not allow the dealer to repair unless the customer complaints. I went to the dealer and just topped up the coolant (coolant level was barely less than the max) and since then I have not seen the warning message again.
can anyone put a picture of the TPMS warning msg??

This is a known issue.
I am from Spain and I had the same problem. After 3 intents they found the problem and solved it. They published the issue and the solution in the KEDB of Range Rover.

It's not on the floor because it's leaking into the head. Then burned. I thought this issue was pretty well sorted in the States. Or at least, understood.
