rrsboy - is this not because the sport has a viscous fan ( driven by a belt) therefore it cannot run on after the engine is stopped? You need electric fans to be able to do that...

2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

you might well be right - is that not a bad thing/design/feature though? ============
2010 TDV8 HSE - ooo laa laaaaaaaaa
2007 TDV8 HSE - superb car and very reliable
============
2012 - dearly departed, sadly missed.. to return in late 2013 with a new TDV8!

I am sure I have seen something somewhere about converting the set up to an electric fan, seems that most people have this idea for reasons of efficiency - you don't need to waste energy from the engine by driving that big fan all the time.
