hi all..
about a week or so ago after getting my catallitic converter fixed my temp
guage would randomly shoot up to about 260 for about 30 seconds and then go
back to normal. with only 24 days left on the factory warranty I took it to
the dealer and here's what they said:
::Customer states temp gauge goes to hot and check guages light comes on::
Checked and found low on coolant.
Checked and found thermostat housing leaking !!!
Resealed housing. Rechecked for leaks
::Customer states noise in engine area:: ?? (i didn't but oh well)
Checked and found belt tensioner frozen.
Rekaced belt tensioner
::Customer requestes cooling system service:: (umm.. dealer recommended it)
(not under warr so i guess i'll pay the $35.00 to get it done)
Maintainenance
Back flush cooling system, pressure test, ensure thermostat
and fan are working as designed.
