Dodgy engine coolant temp sensor, when not reading temp, engine thinks it's cold so idles faster to warm up quicker. Pure guess but at $15 for a new one worth a shot.

I have checked the car and there are no recorded codes for the temperature excurtions or any faults recorded in any of the modules. |

I have ordered the coolant temperature sensor and the oil temperature sensor ex UK. Non available in Australia. In fact the oil temp sender (original Landrover part) was not available anywhere.

I replaced the oil temperature sensor on the weekend. It was a relatively easy job apart from the sensor connector which had a strange release mechanism. It took a while to work out how to release the connector.
