No one’s explain everything so simple and clear as this foo

Very good bro. I will turn on my heater and it sounds like something knocking. It works. But my radiator was getting hot. I could hear it steaming after I turned off the engine .I waited about an hour and opened the cap and it still blew out steam. You and your family, stay healthy brother.✌️💙🏇🏇🏇

Very useful information. It helped me sufficiently to fix my car. Thank you for posting it.

The best video out there. Thank you for this very important video. Now I can save some money and do the work myself.

Thanks for posting very helpful.

your great bud thank you for solutions so clear cut and to point no bull again so appreciate you

To the point and on point with everything. New subscriber keep em coming.

Great video! You done an awesome job explaining it all.

Great information. Two thumbs up!

Great video! Very informative. Thank you.

This video is amazing. I watched over 100 videos on various engine repair and you're the only one that gets right to the point doesn't introduce himself and talk about what we're going to do various things this and that blah blah blah. Thank you so much for getting right to the point speaking clearly concisely. Short and sweet. I wish more videos were like this. Thank you very much for your help

This helped greatly Thanks!!

Thank you for all the insite

Thank you so much - this has really helped me. My car heats up when at the stop light or slow driving in traffic - so now mechanics in my country won't lie to me - i am informed. Thank you so so much.

Thank you for this🙌🏻

Mine was air pocket in system on my 06 GMC envoy all I did drain all the coolent out then I put in coolant then turn car on. And the top it off with more coolant then left it running till thormasta opens up then air bubbles came out I left it bubble up till it stopped and it did and then I close radiator cap and left it running and good no more overheats thanks for. The video it was air pocket in the system now my heater works good now

Easy to understand. Thanks heaps

Nice. Thank you very much !!!!

Thanks for your tips! I've tried everything!!

Just painting simple he couldn't have explained it any better than that good job

Really cool to see you replying to comments a year later. I have a 2016 Subaru outback 2.5, after about 40 minutes of driving the needle moves up to red then slowly goes back down to normal. It will do that a few times during the ride. I also notice the heat will then fluctuate between hot and cold. I’ve read online it could be the radiator cap but I replaced that today with a Subaru oem cap and still the same. I’ve also read it could be low coolant. I plan on changing that tomorrow. I just wonder if there’s anything else I should consider?

Great video

Super valuable video

Thank you

Thanks video helps 🎉

Ty so much!

I have a 2000 Acura RL and this started happening a week ago where my temperature goes up and then back down to normal and when it goes up I get scared thinking it's going to overheat but it never does I hope I can find the problem and fix it soon 👍

Good video bro.

very informative video, thanks my jeep liberty runs normal temp when parked, when i drive the temp goes up quickly. after thermostat change, also seem to be adding a-lot of fluid but don’t know where its going. oil looks good

Thank u

ive taken care of everything except the water pump and a couple of sensors......then I added some fuel type cleaner to my gas tank and that is the only thing thats made a difference so far. carbon gunk does pileup sometimes. And I dont over do anything....I use only what the directions in the fuel cleaner says to do. But there was a gunk build up on the tailpipe so I thought of the fuel cleaner.

Here’s a trick to check the cooling fans just turn on your ac on max the ac system needs the fans to run to operate correctly. The fans after 2 to 3 seconds should fire up and run. If the fans work with the ac but the car still over heats with the ac off then check relays. The way it works is the computer will ground the cooling fan relays and turn the fans on since the fans can be run at different speeds you may have a few relays controlling the fans. The reason I say try the ac first is because if the fans run with the ac then that tells me you have a relay issue if the fans don’t come on with the ac then there might be something wrong with the fans themselves. The fans will always kick on with the ac turned on full blast.

Or leaking in-between cylinders , and giving no blown head gasket external symptoms.

thanks

Man, I have a beautiful 02' Blazer ZR2 4.3 w/300k on her & she used to run at 200 on hot days with a 195° thermostat. Now she's running around 210° (1/2 way mark) after driving just a few miles on hot days. Then it'll raise a tad past 210. That's never happened. The water pump is pumping. I can see it flowing when the thermostat opens. Maybe this is normal but I've never noticed it in the past. She'll get a tad higher when towing a very small 5x9' utility trailer with 200lbs in it. I'm South of Houston. I've flushed, cleaned the outside of radiator, not loosing coolant, did a flush twice in the past 2yrs & didn't look bad, got a new 195° thermostat, coolant, Severe Duty Clutch Fan & I've purged my system twice. I believe all my air is out. The new fan is odd, it is working or engaging when parked & getting warm or just after the thermostat opens, it just doesn't cool it down much or I cannot hear like I can when I'm driving but it's working. It's a new Hayden 2786. Might be normal because it runs around 200° in the mornings & holds that temp whether towing or not. It's just when it's really hot outside like 90° or higher when the temp runs hotter than normal. Which is probably just fine & me worried about nothing. She's had a ton of work done to her & runs like new. Still getting the 02' sticker mpg, 16 in town & better on highway.

I’d like to add #8 I was having to add a large big gulp cup every day. I couldn’t find the leak for the life of me. No drips no where. I finally started ripping out the whole front end! Out of the corner of my eye I finally see a drip… the back side of the radiator cap!

If it is winter and freezing outside and you don’t have antifreeze or to much water mixed it will freeze in the block and over heat

Mine was a clogged radiator. I bought a used car and discovered that there was tap water in the cooling system. Fast forward a few months and residue built up in the cooling fins. Had to replace cooling hoses and radiator. The engine also didn't have a thermostat so I just bought a new one and installed it.

Mechanics have been known to place thermostats in place upside down . Cylinder head gaskets that fail may cause these symptoms .

Could it be the ect sensor even if my car isn’t throwing a trouble code for it? I’ve had to replace a thermostat on my car that got stuck open and it threw a code for ect/thermostat don’t recall the exact code so wasn’t sure

1999 tahoe only overheat a little on first startup after being cold. Then runs normal. New thermostat. New hoses. Clutch fan engages. Good heat. Burped the system. I'm thinking coolent temp sensor but how do I test?

I’m having this issue with my 06 350z I’m not sure if it’s the water pump or the heater core. My question is can a heater core cause this problem? I only over heat when in idle for too long but only when outside temp is higher than 90 degrees. But when it’s over 100 degrees,even if I’m driving it will over heat. I’ve changed the thermostat, radiator and pressure cap. No air in the system

with this intermittent heat problem... Can you now rule out a blown HEAD GASKET ?

My old on Yukon valley it's overheating only when I'm pulling my trailer. A little heavy but I've been pulling it for three years now. In December I replace the radiator and the hoses and the thermostat. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 🇺🇸💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏼

Temperature light comes on when I go upa slanted hill. And hills. Not on flat surfaces. 2010 prius

I had a strange problem occur in my crown victoria, while I was in park I revved the enigne up to 4000 RPM and it started to over heat. The fans kicked on immediately and after about a minute I shut down the engine and restarted after about 5 minutes and let it idle for about another 5 and it did not over heat again. Coolant was just flushed about 2 weeks ago so I am not sure what the problem would be. Thermostat is only about 3 years old, also no codes. Any thoughts ?

@HVACMECHANIC On my way home today my 2005 Mercury Mariner beeped and said "Hot Engine Temperature" I noticed the temperature guage was all the way on high, after I continued to drive a few miles just trying to get home from work all of sudden the truck just completely turned off right when I was about to make a turn leaving me stuck right in the middle of a busy street😢. I never got any warning prior to this so what do you feel the actual issue could be???By the way I did have my AC on and turned it off as soon as I noticed the temperature gauge was on high.

I changed radiator the coolent is not staying in the over flow when driving temperature is fling up and down when I take coolent cap off it then comes back up into reserve thank, and no heat ? What do I do ?

I have a 06 Cayenne 3.2L v6, only starts to overheat when I go 75mph+ and it’ll go away when I slow down. But coolant reservoir blew up on me on the highway. So I replaced that. Not sure what could cause the overheating at high speeds

My temps stay between 177 and 184 when the a/c is not on. Unfortunately when the a/c is on, I see the temps go up to 205. I have my radiator fans turned on all the time but even like this, the temps climb high with the a/c on. With the a/c on and at highway speeds, the temps will mostly drop to the mid 190’s depending on the outside temperature . I’m really hesitating on installing an oil cooler to assist because it just adds complexity.

Hi i have a 04 wrx with an ej207, have changed out the radiator due to a hole and replaced the ect sensor also but am now have the problem where the gauge is going over 2 3rds then the fans kick in and it drops back down to under half way, the scan tool is reading the correct temp for fan activation and the temp gun is pretty close to it also, ive bled the air all out and done a pressure test, system held pressure and im not losing coolant. Any ideas?

Can someone explain how the water pump fails. If the impeller spins how is it causing the coolant to overheat? Even if coolant is leaking out of the weep hole but the coolant level is not low what causes the overheating?

So I got the symptoms of a air pocket in the coolant system but when my car is idle it has a ticking sound It’s nothing to loud yet but i’m having trouble diagnosing it

Humm, my 2005 F150 gauge went to hot, check gauge light came on. Changed the thermostat, and it did it again. I pulled over off, and back on, and normal temp. I slowly open the reservoir and it fills and would overfill if allowed. Looks like trying temp senor next. Any opinions are appreciated. Only work truck.

My car is a Tacoma 98 and the temperature gage is on high, the car turns over but won’t turn on. Any help ?

Mine is stuck open and it will just drop to cold and then go back to normal. It started last night and I just went and got a new thermostat. I had to search the tri state for it too it was crazy

one other reason would be a short in the wires giving mixed signals to the computer.

My problem is so unique. My AC stops working. Only option to do, since all other issues are not the problem. I have replaced the thermostat several times, last time 5 months ago. I have not needed the AC, so I haven't replaced, even though the temperature gauge stops registering, but heater still works perfect, no engine over heating. I am trying to prepare for summer weather, what can it be? Is there a specific thermostat I need for a 2.2 engine? I am never asked when I buy them, which one I need. I have asked and the dealership has said only one specified. The dealers was $75 and still same problem in a few weeks. Help! Please.

so my moms car always overheats when going uphill but then the temps shoots down when going level or downhill. Is this a sign of a bad coolant pump?

Yes I have that problem chrysler sebring 200 2008

I’m having a problem of over heating 2002 jaguar, but I was told it’s my housing unit/thermostat 500$& up work Even though it’s made by Ford!

No offense, love the video, but the coolent Reservoir you spoke of in the beginning with the high/low and was pictured dull white plastic is for overfill level, It's not your coolent level. To test the coolent level, you just fill the the radiator more and more until no more can go in. If more coolent can go into the radiator, then it's probably not full. As said later, you may have airpockets so keep on trying to fill it. Make sure it's the right kind, too.

I have a 2002 Tahoe that overheats around town idling slow speed driving. On the highway 🛣️ no overheating. New radiator. Water pump cooling system flush. Also no leaks have to keep adding coolant

I have a Jeep liberty O3 ,changed out radiator ,water pump, cooling temp , thermostat but, temperature gauge gets too close to 3 quarters hot so, on heat go up normal need out to Change out thermostat again.

Ok but my car is getting a reading saying engine is hot while AC is off and fans are still running, what could that be.. 2012 Buick Regal and too the car is not reading hot on the gauge

My truck starts to heat when turned on by at a stop. The temperature gauge goes up and the a/c begins to warm up but as soon as I am driving it, it cools down. What might this be?

My ‘99 Seville STS gets hot when I’m driving then cools down at idle😳any advise? Water pump and thermostat are new, cleaned by pass tube. Ordered new reservoir. HELP!

My 2012 chevy equinox keep trying to run hot. Then it go to normal, pretty much keep fluctuating.. sometimes it when im in traffic and sometimes when im driving on interstate

What about a radiator cap failing?

Great video i have a couple of questions if you don't mind i have a dodge 2009 charger the car doesn't overheat the fan comes on usually on low my problem is when i turn my ac on the compressor comes on but my condenser fan doesn't come on to cool the condenser so the cars ac only blows hot air the fan use too come on and sound like a jet it doesn't amy more i have checked all the fuses and relays all good no trouble codes or check engine light the car only has one fan but no high speed any i deals or test you could help me with would be greatly appreciated thanks for sharing keep up the great work

Hi I have a Subaru Outback 2010 the light for overheat is flashing when I am driving the car when I stop It stop blinking continuing driving flashing start flashing again

lol thermostat on a Chevy Colorado is $130. Ridiculously High. Also a pain to change. The design engineers obviously don’t work on their own vehicles

I'm not sure if the radiator fan turns on while the car is running but it turns on after the car is off, I changed my thermostat, temperature sensor and now I'm going to flush out the coolant, I don't know much about cars 😂😂 but I'm having fun learning if you could please give me some idea's I would greatly appreciate it 😅😅😂

I have a Chevy Colorado 2015 I’ve changed the thermostat. I’ve changed the radiator and it continues to overheat. I have to turn the heater on to cool it down. What do you think the problem could be

Changed my thermostat twice then the teperature censor and now my water pump and again the thermostat my car still runs hot what do i need to do both of my fans come on and theres no leakage and radiator looks good im so confused

I have Mazda 6 2002 year, i will drive like 15 to 20 mins even 30 mins before it will get overheat, no leakage, the temperature will go high and the car will stop and sometimes i will not add water but as soon as i on the car it start again, please what can be the problem tnx

Sir. Very good video. I bought 11 years old diesel car with1148 cc engine. It clocked nearly 1,50,000 kms. It has a 5 dots type engine temperature gauge. It hardly exhibits one or two white dots. If temperature is normal, then how many dots should appear? Plz guide.❤

Yeah my Chevy impala 2007 Lt doing dat now when I speed up it goes back too normal and level out too be honest my coolant looking corroded

Hello when I’m in a drive through line as such for awhile in Drive my temperature gauge goes all the way to red. Then cools down after I place in park. My coolant level is all the way up also

My overheat indicator only goes up when I turn on the AC. Without the AC on, it does not show overheating. What is causing this?

Why would my 2015 Mercedez show hot and I pull over and 3 minutes later shows normal. And doesn't heat up at slow speeds-only on hiway speeds. Coolant is at a normal level

Or last one head gasket problems

I think my fan is done and that sensor on my 09 RT Challenger at 264k+ miles

my car was running perfectly b4 it started raining and during the rain my car died and started overheating not sure what it is going crazy trying to find the solution

I have a jeep grand Cherokee 2015 3.6 my temperature rises when I step on the gas. Do you know what it can be?

Nothing worse when that comes down looking for water

❓I currently have water in the liquid tank, should I wait until it empties and then add coolant?

Mine nearly (I never let it get to red zone) overheats according to the needle, when the ac is on after a few minutes. No issues when it's on hot. Anyone know what it could possible be? I know it's not the fans, plenty of coolant is available, no smoke from under the hood, oil looks normal, car sounds normal, no knocking, loud noises or anything. I don't believe it was an air bubble.

Also the bad radiator cap , radiator fan control module, relays , fuses , worse case scenario head gasket ….note : to Chrysler dodge owners ….water pump thermostat housing and oil pump are plastic known to break or fail ….they do make upgraded metal oem replacements …if your willing to spend the money 💵…because being a penny pincher will hurt your budget long term having to constantly replace the plastic parts or worse ruin your engine ….these days we need our vehicles ….so think smart ….little by little maintenance these parts can be replaced ….you don’t have to do it all at once …my current situation is with my 2018 dodge grand caravan gt e85 flex fuel super charged …lol lmmfao rolmmfao aaaah hahahahaa….so it’s my water pump oil pump thermostat and housing and radiator fan …no codes pop up ….all my fuses relays modules connections are great …

The problem is mine does it 2 times a day ...the temperature gauge goes to the middle for 20 seconds with a huming noise from the engine then the huming stops and tempreture goes to normal ....so 20 seconds only I doubt the thermostat can do that and I changed the temreture sensor and still nothing going to change the radiator cap next ..the fans work

3:20 Lmao I love how I'm trying to find the cause of the problem for a BMW and the picture is of the same year and series bmw 😂

I have a cruze with a faulty waterpump. replaced the pump and the inlet pipe blew off when driving and the car overheated and blew the head gasket. (water in the #4 cyl, and milkshake). Got some head gasket sealant and tried that and it seemed to work. (no water in cyl and no milkshake cant check compression). But now there is a intermittant overheat issue. There is no thermostat in it so it should run cool. The coolant level is fine, and it does not drop, there is no thermostat, the heater works and when it starts overheating, I put the radiator on full and the air is hot as hell. (this brings the engine back into range and then it is good for a while again). The fans work, and I dont think that it is a sensor because the air is super, super hot when it start overheating. The water pump is new,and I have flushed the system once before, but I need to try it again. .. Any other ideas please or an I down to junking the car or replacing the motor?

Kia quoris i had change water pump clean radiator change. tharmostet. Still it Is getting hit anyone can help me?

What do you all think of when you have a good, well taken care of 6.4L V8 HEMI and two or three weeks ago it starts overheating but not while driving or ripping on it. Driving temp bounces from 180, 190-ish to 210-ish, after 210-220 ish the fan will kick on and the temp will go back down. But as of two or three weeks ago she started overheating while at idle and it happens maybe 3 to 5 minutes of idling (like waiting to pick up my kids from school and have to sit in that line for a bit) and will shoot up to the gauges max of 265! Then she starts beeping and yelling at me. But once I start moving again the temp quickly drops back down to normal. What is causing this? My thought was thermostat or water pump? But I won't know that until I can start taking stuff apart, which I don't want to do if I don't have to. But I could be wrong, which is fine. So, if anyone can help point me in the right direction as to why I'm having this issue I would really appreciate it. BTW: I have a 2018 Dodge Durango SRT with some mods but nothing recently and nothing that would affect the coolant system.

I sold my 99 jeep Grand Cherokee for 400 dollars because I couldn't get it to stop overheating. Wouldn't take it back for free. Damn jeeps

crank your heater at high and open all your windows

I have a 300 chrysler 2.7, overheated, dash gauge dropped, reservoir boiling and my car stalled, have a new thermostat on it, all go and check cap and look for leaks, its making a pinging noise, the auto part code said thermostat! Man, am so sad! She my baby! I thought it was a creature stuck in my fan! But nope!

Mines only does this when the car is in idle not when driving
