The temperature gauge is a vital indicator in driving
do you overheat the engine? Or does it seem like the engine isn't getting hot enough? If the engine overheats, breakdowns can be very expensive: from a blown head gasket to a seized engine. On the contrary, if the engine does not reach its temperature, it will suffer greater wear and consume more fuel and oil. How do you see the car cooling system It is very important.
Often we do not pay all the attention it deserves to the cooling system of our engine, but keeping it in good condition is essential for the mechanism to last as long as possible, avoiding premature wear or overheating that can lead to costly repairs in the workshop. Below we will review the main elements that are part of the refrigeration circuit and its main characteristics.
How does a car's cooling system work?
The operation of the car's cooling system is very simple. The cooling circuit pump (Water Pump), which is driven by the car's engine, activates the circulation of the coolant throughout its entire path with a speed proportional to that of the engine itself. For this the pump sucks the coolant from the bottom of the radiator and drives it into the engine through the spaces between the combustion chamber and the piston liners.
When it has completed its internal tour of the block, the coolant comes out of the top of the cylinder head and returns to the radiator at the top. When it reaches it, it has to go through all the cooling panels in order to lower its temperature thanks to the action of the air that enters from the street (or through the electric fan if the vehicle is stopped).
Thanks to this circulation, the water is maintained at temperatures ranging between 8 to 10 degrees Celsius at the outlet and 80 or 90 degrees at the inlet. This temperature is controlled by a bypass valve (commonly known as thermostat) that monitors that there are no sudden changes of temperature inside the motor and consequently breakdowns arise due to expansion and contraction of the materials.
car cooling system parts
The diagram of the cooling system of a car is made up of the following elements: a radiator, fan, thermostat, Deposit, a coolant booster pump (Water Pump), a belt to move the pump and sleeves They carry the coolant into the engine. All of these components must be in place in order for the engine cooling system to function properly.
The radiator
The radiator is probably the most recognizable part of the car's cooling system. He is usually in the front of the vehicle to receive air as we circulate and thus lower the temperature of the refrigerant liquid that circulates inside it. We should occasionally check that the radiator does not leak and above all, that it is not obstructed. Radiators have very thin metal sheets that, if damaged by small impacts or clogged by dirt, can cause the radiator to not dissipate heat properly, leading to overheating.
With regard to the radiators, it may also be the case that they are clogged on the inside, due to a coolant in poor condition (it should be changed every two years) or to dirt that may be in the circuit. If the radiator is clogged, cleaning can be carried out in a specialist workshop, being a cheaper task than replacing the radiator.
El price of a car radiator can range between 80 and 600 euros approximately depending on the model.
the sleeves
Hoses are another critical part of the cooling system. They are responsible for carrying the coolant from the engine to the radiator. They are usually made of rubber and over the years they get damaged. Take a look at them and if they are not in good condition, replace them with new ones. If a hose bursts we will lose all the engine coolant and we will have to stop if we do not want to cause a breakdown due to overheating that can cost us thousands of euros.
Normally the radiator hoses are specific to each car model and usually cost between 10 and 30 euros.
The water bomb
The water pump is heart of car cooling system. It is responsible for circulating the water throughout the circuit. In many cases the pumps can be damaged and lose refrigerant, so it is advisable to check that they do not have leaks. If it did, it would have to be replaced. When the water pumps are moved by the Timing belt it's advisable change them with every strap change to avoid greater evils. If they are pulled by the auxiliary belt, we will not change it until there are no obvious symptoms of problems.
It may also be the case that the pump blades deteriorate, to the point that it appears to be fine on the outside, but in reality it hardly moves any refrigerant. This is very common in water pumps with plastic vanes.
A water pump for car costs between 50 and 200 euros.
Thermostat
Electronically controlled thermostat
El thermostat is another vitally important element. The motors have to work at a certain temperature and to make sure that the water is at that temperature there is the thermostat. East blocks or opens the passage of water from the engine block to the radiator according to convenience.
If a thermostat deteriorates, it normally stays in the open position. We would notice that the engine has a hard time getting up to temperature and that the idle speed is higher. The engine will generally be running cold and fuel consumption will be clearly higher, in addition to not reaching service temperature, internal engine wear will also be greater.
The car thermostats cost between 10 and 300 euros approximately, depending on whether they are sold alone or come with some other part of the engine.
The fan
The fan is the part in charge of force airflow to the radiator to dissipate heat when the vehicle does not generate enough current (in town for example). Most cars use electric fans controlled by the car's electrical system. They are normally associated with a temperature sensor that activates them if the temperature exceeds certain limits.
It is common the failure of the fan thermal switch, which causes the fan not to work and the motor can be a heater On the other hand, if any of the blades were broken by the intrusion of an object, the cooling could not be adequate, apart from generating noise and vibrations, something more common in SUVs.
in the fans of viscous couplingFurthermore, the airflow may not be sufficient if the viscous core does not work properly. Detecting the problem here can be more difficult with the naked eye, because the blades may be turning, although not enough.
coolant liquid
Finally, all of the above would be useless without the coolant. This liquid is the one that circulates through the circuit and helps to dissipate the heat. It is not convenient to use water, since it can generate oxides in the circuit and it also has a low antifreeze power which, in very cold weather, could cause serious damage to the engine.
To do this, use a suitable antifreeze following the recommendations of the car manufacturer. It's advisable change it every two years approximately to prevent deterioration and keep the cooling circuit clean. those of the brands krafft, ICE-Pro, Motul y Motor kit are good examples. The following article can help you know which one is suitable for your car and which ones can be mixed:
Temperature clock
To control the cooling system of the car while we drive we only have one tool, the temperature clock. This is an element that in many cars has ceased to exist, being replaced by a blue light that indicates that the engine is cold or a red one that indicates overheating.
The temperature clock is useful to see if there is something wrong with the cooling system. However, if it marks incorrectly (under or over) it could be due to a problem with the clock itself or with the sensor that sends the signal. It could also be a mass problem.
Replacing the temperature sensor is easy and inexpensive, being a replacement that usually costs around 20 euros. If the problem is in the clock of the panel, the failure can be more expensive, since sometimes it could involve changing the entire clock panel.
How to clean a car's cooling system
Clean cooling system The car is a very simple maintenance task that, in addition to removing accumulated dirt, will help the engine perform better. This can be carried out by anyone without the need to use complex tools.
Before starting this task, we must make sure that we have a series of elements. Gloves and protective glasses, various containers with and without lids, various screwdrivers and wrenches, a fine, soft-bristled brush, hose with gun or diffuser of water and antifreeze liquid to refill the radiator once the process is finished.
The steps to take for cleaning the cooling system are:
- Before starting the task we must make sure the car engine is completely cold. If it were hot, when opening its cap, the antifreeze liquid could jump into our faces and consequently burn us.
- Open the hood and fix it with the safety rod. Once the engine compartment is uncovered, we will clean the area around the radiator with soapy water to remove dirt and insects. Then with the brush we will clean the radiator in the direction of its grids (otherwise they could be damaged). After cleaning, we will rinse the area with the hose and water at room temperature to remove the remains produced.
- Once the radiator is clean, we will proceed to drain the coolant it contains. To carry out this task, we will put on gloves and open the drain valve. To complete this step successfully it is important that all the liquid is collected in a bucket or container where it cannot be poured, as it is very toxic to the environment. When the radiator stops leaking, we will close the valve again.
- When the radiator is empty and the drain valve cap is closed, we will refill it with the help of the water hose. Then we will empty it again and repeat point three until the resulting water is clear. In any case, the same security measures and collection of the resulting water in closed containers will be maintained.
- Once the radiator expels the completely clean water, we will proceed to inspect the condition of the radiator cap, hoses and clamps. In case of finding any problem, they will have to be replaced with new elements.
- When we have verified that the cooling system no leaks no problems, we will return fill the radiator with the new coolant.
- Last but not least, we will have to get rid of waste generated during cleaning of the car's cooling system. The most advisable thing is to deliver the containers with liquid at a recycling point or specialized workshop to send it to an authorized waste manager.
How to bleed a car's cooling system
Once we have cleaned the entire cooling system of the car and filled the radiator, we will proceed to purge it. To do this, with the open radiator cap, we will start the engine for a few seconds.
With this maneuver we are looking for any air that may be inside to come out, since the motor will move all the liquid through the circuit, establishing the real level inside it. Later we will stop the vehicle, check the level again (topping it up if necessary) and close the cap.
Oil in the cooling system of a car
If we meet oil in the cooling system of our car we may have one or two problems.
The first problem that can cause oil to enter the circuit has to do with the pitting or cracking of the head gasket. If this element deteriorates, oil can be introduced into the cooling system, causing the properties of this liquid to be reduced.
To solve it, you have to change the head gasket and clean cooling system as we explained above. In this case, you have to be very careful with cleaning, because the radiator may be clogged in some parts, having to change it if it does not fit.
The second reason has to do with the oil cooler breakage. This element is a kind of water-oil radiator that goes in the engine and when it breaks, it usually mixes the water and the oil.
In any case, the most appropriate go to an official workshop or service to prevent this problem from going from a low-cost breakdown to a high-cost one.

I recently changed the belts on an audi a4 (year 2000) and changed the cooling liquid. now the fan is continuous and just by giving the contact it jumps, besides it does not cool as it did or with the same force. what can happen to him
HELLO EVERYONE, MY QUESTION IS THE FOLLOWING I HAVE A CHRYSLER GRAND VOYAGER 4X4 3.8 AUT. AND FROM TIME TO WHEN I POUR WATER FROM THE EXPANSION BOTTLE, AND EVERY TWO BY THREE I HAVE TO ADD ANTIFREEZE. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT OVERHEAT AND THE RADIATOR IS ALWAYS AT ITS LEVEL. COULD IT BE FROM THE THERMOSTAT?
IF YOU CAN HELP ME I WOULD APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH. A GREETING.,
If the radiator has its own plug, change it. It probably doesn't work anymore. and with a little that gets hot, it lets water pass into the recuperator and that's why it spills
I have a 1997 Polo Ten and the water does not circulate, it blows out, what could it be?
JOSE FRIEND THE RADIATOR CAP DOES NOT WORK. THEY ARE MADE TO WORK AT A CERTAIN PRESSURE, THE NUMBER IS ON THE TOP, FIND OUT WHICH IS THE APPROPRIATE ONE FOR YOUR CAR. LUCK
I have a diesel polo year 99, the engine heats up a lot, what can it be?
Change the lid of the refrigeration can, it must already be expired.
the cooling indicator is very low despite the fact that the engine is hot when it is normally in the center the levels are fine and the fuses also do not understand why it is due at the moment nothing happens to me but I do not trust
and where is the thermostat?
I would also like to know if the two fans in my car have to work, because I have a Grand Voyager truck but it does not have a gas charge for the air conditioning and I have never tried to do it, so I do not know if this helps to heat it and also only one fan works, so I don't know if the other one should work too, thanks
Good afternoon, I am restoring a 1945 vehicle and I took the radiator to a company so they could leave it as good as new.
I have not yet taken the car out on the street but I have noticed that the temperature rises considerably and it gives me the feeling that the water is not circulating through the radiator. I'm afraid whoever fixed the radiator poured a filler on it that now blocks the flow of water. Because when the water passes through the pump at 90º, the exterior face of the radiator is cold both at the top and at the bottom.
As the vehicle is very old it is difficult to find this radiator.
DO YOU KNOW ANY METHOD TO CLEAN THE RADIATOR? DO THE CLEANERS THAT THEY SELL REMOVE THE RUST AND THE CALCAREOUS RESIDUE, BUT WILL IT REMOVE THE FILLER THAT THEY PUT?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE
IT'S GOOD THAT THEY CREATE PAGES LIKE THIS, AT LEAST FOR ME, AS I AM AN AVERAGE STUDENT WITH A GREAT CAPACITY TO LEARN!!!!!!
Does an electronic vehicle still start if it has no coolant? I appreciate a prompt response if it does not turn on, what should this be?
IF ANYONE KNOWS WHY THE CAR WARMS ME UP A LITTLE, ITS TEMPERATURE RAISES BUT THEN IT LOWES VERY QUICKLY AND THE COOLANT BOILS
THE SAME HAPPENS TO ME…. ANYONE KNOW WHAT CAN IT BE??? I HAVE A GALAXY 2.0 I
The refrigerant system is important as if a person were thirsty and must always be constantly taken.
How important is the cooling system?
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa shit
The cooling system in a vehicle is important because it is the one that does not allow the car to overheat too much and thus burn the oil faster.
I HAVE A MAZDA 626 95 AUTOMATIC, AND IT RUNS HOT. THE CLIMATE AVANICO WORKS CORRECTLY BUT THE MAIN DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN THE TEMPERATURE INCREASES, ONLY IF I DISCONNECT IT FROM THE SENSOR IT WORKS.
I WOULD LIKE TO SUPPOSE THAT IT COULD BE TWO THINGS, ONE THE THERMOSTAT OR THE SAME SENSOR CAN YOU HELP ME. THE CAR WORKS CORRECTLY WITH THE AVANICO DISCONNECTED FROM THE SENSOR, IT WORKS AT A NORMAL TEMPERATURE SINCE IT RECEIVES AIR CONSTANTLY, BUT ALSO WHEN THE CLIMATE IS TURNED ON IN NORMAL FUNCTION AND AFTER TRAVELING IT FOR A FEW KM. AND RETURN IT TO PARKIN AND TURN OFF THE CLIMATE THE CAR REVOLUTIONIZES UNTIL 2000 I TURN ON THE CLIMATE AGAIN AND IT IS NORMALIZED UNTIL I TURN THE CAR OFF, AND WHEN I TURN IT ON AGAIN WITHOUT CLIMATE IT WORKS WELL AT NORMAL REVOLUTIONS
GOOD DAY FRIEND, I WROTE YOU ON SEPTEMBER 3 AND RECEIVED YOUR ANSWER. WHAT FAILURE WAS THE ELECTRONIC SENSOR, THE IAC VALVE I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO ATTEND TO IT. BUT NOW I HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM: BEFORE IT WAS LEAKING WATER AND THE PROBLEM WAS REMOVED BY CHANGING THE HOSES BUT LATER I REALIZED THAT THEY THROWED AWAY ALL THE ANTIFREEZE AND IT WAS PURE WATER, THEN I APPLIED A 10-MINUTE RINSE OF THE PRESTONE BRAND FOLLOWING THEIR INSTRUCTIONS AFTER PUTTING THE ANTIFREEZE. AFTER THIS, A LEAK APPEARED ON AN UPPER RIGHT SIDE, THIS PART OF THE RADIATOR SIDE LOOKS LIKE PLASTIC MATERIAL JOINED AND BURNED BY THE RADIATOR ITSELF. THEY RECOMMENDED A LIQUID BUT I DON'T KNOW WHETHER TO USE IT, THEY SAY IT IS FOR SMALL LEAKS, BUT WHAT I HAVE READ
THEY MAY BREAK THE ENTIRE RADIATOR. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP.

I have a Vogue... the light that indicates problems with the engine came on... we took it to check and it turns out that there was a fault in the air purge system of the tank... my question is: can it continue to be used for a week until they send the corresponding part? Thank you
Hello, I have a nissan maxima 98 iseme heats up, call me change the theostat, the heat sensor, we throw the radiator but it continues to heat up. The strange thing is that you can leave it on for up to two hours, but suddenly the temperature needle shoots up suddenly and goes up to the end. What do you recommend Greetings friend.
This engine is a real shit I want to be a mechanic but I can't even fuck shit I can learn if a shitty engine all the moving parts are shit thanks
HELLO I HAVE AN OPEL MERIVA 1700 DIESEL DTI TUBE A FRONT SHOCK BUT WHEN I CHECKED THERE WAS NO FLUID LOSS OR ANYTHING WE DECIDED TO GO TO THE NEXT GAS STATION SINCE IT SEEMED MILD BUT APPARENTLY THE RADIATOR HAD BROKEN IN A PLASTIC BASE AND LOST ALL THE WATER AND THE CAR WAS OVERHEAT, NOW THE CAR DOES NOT START AND MAKES CERTAIN STRANGE JUMPS WHEN STARTING IT, I THINK IT MAY BE THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET (CAMERA GASKET) BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANY VALVE THAT DOES NOT LET THE CAR START AND THAT CAN HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY OVERHEATING THANKS IN ADVANCE
I have a chevrolet meriva and the electric fan motor wants to start working and stops automatically and therefore raises my temperature. I would like to know what it could be. Thank you very much.
Hello, I have a Ford Villager. I just changed the water pump due to a leak, but I don't know if it works correctly. When I open the hood after a certain amount of time driving it, the hoses through which the coolant passes feel hot. Is this normal? And another question, where does this type of truck have the thermostat? in fact the temperature according to the indicator does not rise to more than half
I have a hynudai accent, I have noticed that when I stop my car the coolant reservoir starts to boil, but the engine heating needle does not indicate that it is overheated.
hello I have an R-19 a week ago I changed the 2 valves because the belt was cut and they had bent, the mechanic told me he put a new gasket and all the new seals before that the cooling system was fine now I find that the water tank has an oil stain the electro works well, and the oil doesn't waste and the water doesn't waste either there is oil in the tank and it turns black remove the water and fill the system again and it happens again I would like know what's going on because the mechanic told me it was going to happen
Hello, good to all, I have a problem in a SEAT leon 1.9 TDI 110 CV. The safest thing is that it has some type of water loss because I have changed the thermostat, the fan works correctly, I checked the hoses (only above) of the entire circuit and it is still losing water. and by the way! on the dashboard, even if the needle is completely low, that is, the engine is completely cold, the heating indicator light comes on, I open the water pump cap and find that the coolant level is low. PLEASE I HOPE YOU WILL GIVE ME SOME SOLUTION OR TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE
Thank you very much, see you soon.
Why was it that before only water was used to cool the engine and nowadays coolant plus additives and inhibitors are recommended?
OH YOUNG TIMES CHANGE OSEAAA HEELLOOOOOOO!!!!
Hello, I have a query, my fiat suffered overheating due to a pipe that is on one side of the engine, it is plastic and it cracked after that, I changed the pipe, put refrigerant purge, I have done everything related to it and even so the temperature level rises and I don't know what else to do could you help me. in the morning it turns on with a fault that progressively disappears I really can't find what else is wrong is that the temperature rise process is slow, what could it be? I appreciate your wise and prompt response through my email thanks
the gasket papa of the head wets the spark plugs of water
Good afternoon, I have a 2005 party, due to my work, I don't move my vehicle much, since sometimes I have to go out of town for work, and when I'm at home, I hardly ever go out, so I only have 29,000 km traveled. Since January 2010 I had a real oversight, since I did not check the levels, and in the middle of March, I felt that the engine was making a lot of noise, as if it started running noise like a fan, I checked the antifreeze, and it had already gone finished (the tank was broken) and I didn't realize that everything was thrown away. I took it to the Ford workshop on March 20, I ordered them to check the cooling system, since the indicator needle was rising, and the engine was noisy. Apparently it was just the deposit, which was changed. But on April 16, the engine made exaggerated noise again, I took it to the workshop, they told me "that these vehicles have a double fan, and one is located by the engine, and that it starts working by instructions from the computer, which was normal", Well I came back not very convinced. But he didn't make any noise again. But yesterday the 26th and today the 27th it made a lot of noise again, the engine, as if with effort, AFTER 15 MINUTES OF USING THE VEHICLE, this no longer sounds good to me, also today I saw that the temperature gauge went up a couple of times to the black area, when standing, and when moving as if it was getting off. Oil and coolant levels are fine. My vehicle before these problems was very quiet, but now, I am concerned. I await your guidance and thank you for your attention.
I have an audi a4, it got hot and all the parts of the grinding kit had to be changed, the head or gasket was rectified, and it was detected that the water leak was due to the damaged radiator cap. But the oil continues to mix with the water and they no longer know why.
What can be? how is it solved?
Please help urgently!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you.
I have a Grand Voyager model 95 and it heats up when it is in traffic for a while and it stops, after 30 minutes of being off to cool down it turns on again without problem but after a while it goes back to work, what is wrong?
I have the meek
refrigeration folder hopefully what
come out help me to have a 7
already xabelas oh we see it see!
You already madriste stupid
Hello everyone, your page is very interesting and useful. I need your help.
I have a Jeep Cherokee that sometimes shuts off when I slow down to brake, on the other hand I think the cooling system is not working properly as the small plastic auxiliary radiator tank swells to bursting with spurting coolant. I need your help urgently. I thank you very much. Thanksssssssssssssssssssss
What year is Juan Carlos? What turns it off could be something in the acceleration system, a loose or broken suction hose or something that does that or dirty the entire throttle body, you should have a good look at the other, check how the thermostat is, it will surely give you a fault and it makes the fly overheat so that the damage is not greater and good luck
Hi, I have a 2009 Matiz and last night it was arriving I ran into an asvesto drain cover and hit it with the front of my car and today I see that I don't have a drop of antifreeze and I see my radiator bent, I put water in it to see if it had leak and everything comes out under the radiator what do I do
brother with all due respect for those cases if the dent was big change the radiator and put the coolant indicated because repairing it may cause it to overheat it is better to be on the safe side
I have a Crysler voyager 98 and it raises temperature to 100 km / h, if it is an upward slope more. Anyone know what can it be?
you have to do maintenance to the entire cooling assembly with changes of hoses and thermostat check that you have put the correct coolant and engine oil good luck
Thank you very much, I liked this article and I hope it will be useful for my practical mechanical integrations on September 9.
All the best
hello juanma remember that it is a mezcal 50 and 50m that is half water and half refrigerant if you have the manual of the vehicle it may tell you there good luck a hug brother
How does the fact that ACPM contains 1.4% more sulfur affect the fuel system and the Diesel engine? Say what characteristics the fuel (ACPM) should have to be efficient and not contribute to engine failure.
I would like to have a manual with everything that has to do with the cooling system
I have a 2002 Chevrolet Steem Mod. It overheats when I do continuous tours obviously it is not normal, on several occasions all the hoses have been checked in case there is any leak, the radiator was changed together with the original tanks. (to aluminum tanks), the radiator cap was also changed, the thermostat, the bulb and the problem continues, now the most common thing is that the auxiliary tank starts to boil constantly and when I turn off the car it empties completely, I leave it cool, I check the radiator and it turns out that it is completely without water, the hoses are totally hot as if they were going to explode, what could I do?????
Sure brother, it's the cameras or cylinder head, as they say, it would be necessary to disassemble, brush the cameras (retify) and place a new gasket, good luck,,,,,
little by little I don't even fart make him want and continue participating
I have a 4 Audi a2010 and the level of antifreeze is low. When I go on very long trips, the engine gives off a smell of heat, but even so the temperature does not rise above 90 degrees. It happens to you. Thanks
How to improve the ignition of an ACPM microbus in cold weather
I have a fiat motor 1500 year 88, I have changed the water pipe and the hoses from the radiator to the coolant and from the coolant to the water pipe that goes to the engine. The car does not overheat, it does not have leaks in the radiator, the electric fan works well, firing and turning off at the right time, but it is consuming an incredible amount of water, what could be happening, could it be the coolant that is not working properly??? where is all the water going? Please tell me what could be the cause...
.
To your bad luck, I'm sorry to tell you that there is a leak in the cylinder head gasket, so you should change it and as a tip, take the cylinder head to perform a brushing and rule out a future new leak.
You can check if the water leak is a lot, the oil must contain some water.
regards
brother check the radiator cap maybe it's expired luck ah and you should see what mileage it has a hug
The most likely is that it is getting inside the cylinders, the cause could be the head gasket or the warped head, that is why there is no visible leak, the water inside the engine turns into steam, greetings from Chile, Víctor Sánchez, Mechanical Technician automotive(INACAP)
I would like to know how many liters of coolant the kangoo 2 gasoline 1.6 uses; 16 valves?
Thank you very much, this information is very valuable, I am a woman learning a little about my car? By the way, what happens if I fill the radiator to the top? I have to empty a little or it does not matter? I hope you can answer me, thanks
Hello, Monica, good morning, look, the most recommended thing is that you fill it up to where it indicates because when the vehicle heats up a little, the level rises and the tank could expand, otherwise everything is fine, keep it at the level and coolant recommended, good luck, a hug from Venezuela
peugeot 306 hdi 2.0 I find that the water tank has an oil stain the electro works well, and the oil does not use up and the water does not use up there is oil in the tank and it turns black remove the water and fill the system again and it happens again I would like to know what happens because the mechanic told me that it was going to happen

How about Mosky, look, I would like to know if it is a 206 or a 307? your car is passing the diesel to the cooling system there is no way for it to happen as your mechanic says .. somehow that fuel is passing, it occurs to me that it is because of the gasket of the camera or cylinder head I recommend that you take it to a service specialized in peugeot or mechanic who knows diesel vehicles I hope everything is resolved in the best way
hello I have problems with the fan of my car, help
OSWALDO WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU? PERHAPS THE COALS HAVE ALREADY EXPIRED TO THAT ELECTRO FAN? WHAT CAR DO YOU HAVE? AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD THE ELECTRO? YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR THE FAULT CAREFULLY.
that it is true that it can also be a relay that has to do with the speed change of the blade that may be failing and that I checked; radiator, thermostat, water pump. head gasket and cylinder head.
How does the fact that ACPM contains 1.4% more sulfur affect the fuel system and the Diesel engine? Say what characteristics the fuel (ACPM) should have to be efficient and not contribute to engine failure.

answer well without rudeness queer fucking thread
you already lost the workshop hahaha no one answered you
Hello. I am thinking of inserting a plate heat exchanger in the coolant circuit, at the engine outlet, before the radiator. I want to use it to heat water from a tank. The only effect I can think of is that the coolant cools before it enters the radiator. It does not occur to me that it could have any negative consequences, but I prefer to ask your opinion before carrying out the invention. Thanks.
Why was it that before only water was used to cool the engine and nowadays coolant plus additives and inhibitors are recommended?
hello friend I have p 306 diesel I have with the electros in the second speed when I turn on the air which already made me burn the cylinder head gasket twice that I must check
Hello, I have a nissan serena mod 95... its main problem is that the engine overheats very quickly... I would like opinions on how I can solve this problem... thanks
I have a mercedes OM 615 engine, I can't find the fault with it, because it heats up so much, since it has an uncovered radiator, the pump works fine, I put the new thermostat on it, after being running and opening the thermostat it starts to heat up to point of throwing water through the mouth of the radiator, it could also be that the injection pump is out of order? since it jingles a lot, thank you for informing me rasrojovive@hotmail.com
Hello, I would like to know how many water seals the peugeot 306 xn engine 1.4 year 99 has.
good night I need help, I have a grand cherokee model 1993, when I turn on the refrigeration it blows very little air what do I do
My name is Cristian and I have a Fiat Uno Fire 1.3 mod. 2005. I travel 50 km daily and when I am arriving at my destination the injection fault indicator lights up on the dashboard. The mechanic connected to a scanner and gave him a fault in the temperature sensor. He first cleaned the entire cooling system and the failure continued. Later he changed the bulb that senses the temperature but yesterday it also had the problem. The curious thing: it only does it on the way out and not on the way back from my work. Even more curious: on the way out I use the heating, on the way back I don't (today I tried to travel without heating and I had no problems) Is the heating system related to the injection? Where can be the fault? From already thank you very much.
I would like to know where are the water bleeders of the renault laguna engine vovlvo 2.0 model 1996 thanks guillotechirino@hotmail.com
the fan does not work correctly the motor cools more with the racing air when I turn it off for it to work I have to leave it for a while with the shuit open but without turning on the motor and it takes as if it does not have enough energy and the battery is new and When it manages to work, it goes from very slowly onwards, but when it wants to work, the intensity of the energy is not seen to change, as when an electric motor is forcing itself.
i have a mercedez e 200 compressor that overheats when it goes over 200 kmph and if you lower it to less it returns to normal
how many liters of antifreeze does a pointer2001 take thanks
my problem is that when I pour water into the car I throw it back, in the workshop they told me that it is from the exhaust manifold plugs and they charge me €120, could someone tell me if the budget is ok and what are the those caps?
Hi, is it normal for the antifreeze to get too hot and the tank to crack?
HAPPY DAY IS NOT NORMAL… BECAUSE IT IS OVERHEATING FOR SOME REASON, IT WOULD BE GOOD TO CHECK THE ENTIRE COOLING SYSTEM, TAKING CARE OF THE COOLING VALVE THAT MAKES THE ELECTRIC FANS MOVE, IT MAY ALREADY HAVE SUFFERED OVERHEATING, HOPEFULLY NOT… AND IT IS ALL SOMETHING SIMPLE GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY DAY
my bmw van has the system that makes it raise or lower the bodywork, now i'm lazy, what could it be….
Hello, the car changed the head gasket two months ago and the water pump but it still heats the water but the boom does not go up as normal as it could be, it does not have a thermostat and the radiator is new

Hello good morning, my query is: I have a fiat stilo 2009 1.8 I am going to my concern, regarding the air conditioning of the car. until a few months ago it was perfect then we noticed that it was no longer cold the same, my ex took it to be seen by a friend who told us that it was already repaired that it was the gas. After a trip we made, we noticed that when we turned on the air conditioner, the car began to heat up and so several times from that moment until now, the air conditioner was no longer used. my question what could have happened? thank you, waiting for answers...

Hi friends. I consult them to see if they can guide me. I have a lagoon volvo engine. 1997 With climate control. When turning on the AC, everything works fine, it cuts due to cold and reconnects the Compressor, until after a while the compressor no longer connects. The engine stays revved up, that is, it gives the impression that the computer interprets that the AC is running and accelerates the car, but in reality the compressor does not hit its pulley. I see that the signal arrives but weaker. Both the radiator and interior fans work correctly. I imagine that it could be a connection or a relay that after a while heats up and introduces a greater contact resistance that does not allow the compressor to hit the pulley. Can you guide me where the current for the compressor comes from? Thanks for your help.
hello… I ask you a question and I hope someone can solve the problem, I have a peugeot 206 model 99, 1.6 engine, I have the problem that when I contact the car it shows a temperature let's say 70 degrees, I drive 4 or 5 blocks and it marks approximately 80 degrees, all this having already used the car before, is it normal for it to measure like this suddenly? Is it because of the temperature of the water? or mismeasures the bulb of the dash needle? And another similar problem is that on the road sometimes it goes over 90 degrees, and some mechanics have told me that it should go on 80 degrees on the road, others told me that it doesn't do anything for it to go on 90 degrees... I hope someone knows how to answer me...

I have a mersedez year 2000 s430 I changed the water pump because it was making noise but for the car to heat up what problem could it have
I have a 97 gasoline vosyaguer the cooling water boils as soon as it gets hot a long time ago I only put water in it the expansion bottle fills up it could be the lid or it takes a lot of water or thanks
Thanks, I already fixed it, it is to change the water pump and in those cars you have to bleed the system
Ke changed the pump you tell me Adam?
I had changed the pump because it already sounded and after I put it on it got hot but I bled the system and it was fixed but your car is not that problem but you can disconnect the hose that goes from the thermostat to the radiator and that way you realize if the thermostat is opening well and if the pump is fanning the water to the radiator yes open the water from that hose as soon as the car heats up then turn off the car connect the hose make sure it is well connected and turn on the car and check that the fan turns on when heat do not disconnect the hose when the car is hot be careful with hot water
I think that my problem is poor circulation and that it has almost all water instead of coolant and it is possible that the radiator cap is no longer doing its job?
You can do what he told you if you open the water from the thermostat and you rule out that it is the pump or the thermostat and then you connect the radiator to the radiator, cover all the plugs and kiss it if the pressure of the radiator ace turn on the fan if not already check the plug and the fan
Good night brother, I have a big doubt with my gol2005, the normal temperature, even in the queues, it marks 90 ° C at most, the problem is that if I turn it off, I have to wait for the fan to turn off and when I say wait I tell you 5 at least 10 minutes, another detail is that it does not consume water but not at all, and this only happens when the temperature reaches between 80 and 90°, I would appreciate it if you could guide me, thanks
Fill the water tank well, disconnect the hose that goes from the thermostat to the radiator from one side only if you can, it is better the side that connects to the radiator after you disconnect it, turn on the car until it heats up and start to drink water, the hose that you disconnect makes sure that be the thermostat connect the other time turn off the car and secure the hose well you need someone to help you be careful with the fans

Good afternoon, could you guide me? I have a citroen xsara 1.9 td, last week I changed the expansion tank because its window was cracked and it was pouring all the water out there, I thought the issue was solved, well no, no matter how much I fill it, the sensor jumps like it empties and throws when it overheats through a pipe that I have already tightened. Could it be that it lacks purging and the air inside the system affects the operation? I took out the thermostat that was half half until I bought it, because I remembered that it had problems in the peugeot 504, the water in the circuit is somewhat harder but it is still empty. Did you want to override the heating? I no longer have variants and maybe someone can throw another one, thank you all very much in advance
Hi, I have a 98 honda civic vtec, the coxe gets too hot, they told me to look at the two hoses that carry the liquid to the engine if they get hot and only one of them does it and when the engine gets hot neither of the two fans jumps What has someone could tell me why this is or at least clarify a little
Hello, good afternoon, I would appreciate it if someone could help me, I have a Renault express 1,9 gas, and the problem is that at night the water pump is full and in the cold morning the water pump empties and as soon as it starts it starts to fill it up again by itself, and the car does not leak anywhere the problem is when I take it on a long highway and it has been on the highway for about 10 minutes in a row it starts to heat up and smoke comes out because it runs out of water the water has not gone to the oil and no the hoses leak or anything, I already changed the water pump cap but it's still the same, can someone help me and tell me what it could be, thanks in advance

Good morning, I have a 98 Mondeo and I would appreciate if you could inform me about what is happening to it. It leaks water from the cooling circuit, but in a very particular way. I start it, it doesn't lose; I circle with it for ten or fifteen minutes, I stop it and it continues without losing water. However, when I have it started, or stopped or circulating for a long time, when it is stopped it does not lose water either, but when it cools down the expansion vessel of the cooling circuit spills. I think it is the water pump. What do you think? Thank you very much for attending me and greetings.

CAN YOU GIVE ME A SOLUTION THANKS.
a question, I read all the comments and your answers are exceptional. I have a 2010 ducato, it consumes water, but it does not raise temperature, nor does it lose it through any hose, since there are no signs anywhere. Mechanics saw it and put it in the computer, but nothing appears. It goes very well, the engine does not show anything strange, but we are afraid to use it if it is something serious.
I await response. Thank you

hello I have a 2003 renault megane esenic and it leaks oil through the oil filter to see if someone can help me with this since the mechanic does not know why he does that, the fact is that when it circulates it does not leak oil if I drive 30 minutes and I stop the engine after a while the rubber ring that is used to adjust the oil filter blows it and if I turn it on again it spurts me out... and then I stop the car I put the gasket well in its place rubber and I can drive again until I stop again and so on and again. The fact is that the filter is adjusted very strongly... if anyone knows anything about this, I would greatly appreciate it

Hello, I have a suzuki Baleno year 98 and this one has the check on, the scanner was done and it threw a coolant temperature sensor, it was changed and nothing, tps was changed, other sensors were tested and nothing, it has the direct fan I mean, on contact it lights up, it costs a lot to start in the mornings and when it's cold and the other thing is that it consumes a lot of fuel, it's a 1.6 engine but it consumes as if it were a much more powerful engine. I'll appreciate your comments and help since until now nobody found the fault.
Hello, I have a Ford Courier, and it got hot. I looked at the thermostat and I had it removed. They told me to clean the radiator, I took it and cleaned it, and when I put it on, a metal piece would pour water behind the thermostat and on the side of the timing belt...I would like to know what the metal piece behind the thermostat is called
because my 2006 chevrolet equinox truck goes up in temperature but the water tank is very cold
Surely you have the thermostat seized (CLOSED) Change the thermostat and if you don't want to change it, delete it but it will take a long time to heat up in winter.

Hi, I have a problem. I have a 2009 Ford eco sport and I fill it with coolant and it goes to the Inter heat exchanger. When I turn it on for the first time in the morning, I hear in the cabin as if there was a jar full of liquid. But the car does not overheat, does anyone know why it happens?
The article seemed very instructive and simple for which I am very grateful and I will follow them to know more.
There are several things that cause coolant to overheat:
1. Poor condition of radiator, perforations, holes, rust. Yes, it is like that, change or have a new one manufactured and it may be with larger coils.
2. Water pump, rusty, poor condition. Change.
3. Hoses in poor condition, they can overheat, break. Change
4. Leaks in tubes, joints. This also causes the temperature of the coolant and the expansion vessel to rise.
5. Thermostat, in poor or good condition and the temperature rises... in some cases, 4×4 vehicles have to be replaced, because it makes the temperature rise and the coolant boils.
All this I tell you from experience in a 1987 Jeep Cherokee
