Adam - the other danger of driving over 100 when the tempretaure gets over 40deg is the increase risk of tyre delamination. I recommend not driving over 100 on these days, and adding an extra 5-10psi in the tyres to decrease tyre flex. Hope the experience was not too expensive for you.

Do you have a td5? If you do and have non LR service, make sure they replace the oil centrifuge, which often gets missed by non LR dealers. You can change it yourself very easily - it is under the dome next to the turbo. Important to do this, as if it clogs up it starves the turbo of oil...
