  • need help a.s.a.p. i have a problem

    ok guys, it's winter where i live in pa and my car is overheating. say i start it up cold and let it warm up for like 2-3 minutes and i go 10 miles it will be above 200 in temp already and i usually run around 180-190 on hot summer days. i'm going to change my thermostat, i think that may be sticking but what else could it be guys and also has anyone else had this problem and what was the problem???
    thanks in advance

    Have you checked your coolant? If you are really low on it, you will overheat pretty quickly. Also, check your waterpump. The seals broke in my waterpump broke so it started leaking out of the weep hole on the bottom.
