#6373, "Overheating Problems! Help!"


          

Who here has had overheating problems?? My car has been over heating latley and I don't know why! I replaced the Thermostat, Radiator cap and flushed the system clean! I did a 50/50 mix of water and Antifreeze. Still it seems to overheat! Could it be my water pump?? My car only has 23,000 miles on it emoji HELP!

I had that problem to, the temp needle moved from its normal center position to a little higher. I flushed the system and added water wetter and since then after serious boosting its holding steady at center again.

Boy I feel sorry for you. Every time I hear of someone having overheating problems it becomes a long drwan out process to fix, and some not getting fixed. I have heard everything from bad head gaskets to an aftermarket a/c cooler. BLKOUT had overheating probs once and it turned out to be the aftermarket steel flex hose. Measure the temp in your radiator on the lower and upper tanks to see if it is getting hot or not. It is a start.
