  • running hot

    Hi everybody, I am looking for some help as I have yet another problem with my car. The other day, the temperature gauge suddenly shot up into the 260 range setting off the check gauges light. I shut the car off and let it cool yet the next time i started it up the SES light came on and today the car has been running slightly above the 210 range when it usually runs below it. Anyone know what might be going on? Thanks in advance.

    is your fluid level ok? is it staying at that temp? does it over heat?

    it could be the therostat, even the water pump.

        Let us know if the coolant is low or not... if its full then check the thermo (its an easy replacement) and lets start from there before we go anywhere else.
