Default metal coolant parts

I thought I read that JLR was making them for LR and these ARE stamped with both. I guess I would investigate the seller. I looked up one of the part numbers and on our US JLR dealer sites it's listed as a Land Rover part, hence the LR prefix.. Il faut bien avancer avec prudence.

Radiator Drain Plug Replacement
Do note hafren's comment about removing the plug too.

Just wanted to say HUGE THANKS for alerting me to this!

I just got my radiator "repaired" yesterday while the car was in for the cooling system upgrade, and as it turned out, it was indeed just that little plug that needed to be replaced
The radiator itself was totally fine!
Your advice turned a $2k+ job into a pocket-change job.

The shop (Silk Cat Auto in North Vancouver) was also really happy to find out about your discovery, so I'm extending their thanks to you as well.
