We’ll quickly bring you in for an appointment so we can diagnose whatever is going on.
Your Cooling System is a Priority
Your vehicle has a very well-constructed cooling system that is utilized by your engine as a way to maintain a preset temperature. This cooling system uses coolant, fans, a radiator, vents, and much more. Because of all these contributing parts, there’s a lot that we need to look at if the temperature is an issue.
The Purpose of a Water Pump
Water isn’t the only fluid that is used by your water pump. This pump also works closely with coolant to provide temperature control. Gaskets and bearings within the water pump can become damaged, which would result in a coolant leak.
How Your Radiator Helps
The radiator in an automobile is required to radiate heat from your engine out into the air around you. Mineral deposits, fan damage, and coolant leaks can all be the cause of a temperature issue in your engine.
The Problem With Belts and Hoses
The belts inside of your cooling system wear down over time, and they also have the potential to slip off their track. Hoses can also wear out, or split, which would result in cooling come out of your vehicle. Temperatures will be thrown off when you have an issue with your belts or hoses.
Thermostat Control and Common Issues
If the internal valve in your thermostat setup is stuck permanently in the open position, this can cause a constant coolant flow to be present in your engine compartment. A valve that is stuck in the closed position would prevent coolant from flowing through at all. Any hiccups in this system would result in an abnormal temperature reading in your vehicle.
Camelback Toyota is available at many different convenient times throughout the week and weekend. If you’ve noticed that your engine isn’t functioning at an acceptable temperature, let our dealership know. Don’t continue driving your vehicle for any length of time afterward. This is when damage can take place.
When you turn in a flawless race performance, the results are usually always good. The New England Forest Rally (NEFR), held this past weekend, was no exception to that rule. Ryan Millen and his 2016 RAV4 SE finished in second place in the 2WD Class, just 14 seconds in back of the Ford Fiesta ST of Cameron Steely after over 100 miles of stages. The performance keeps Millen and co-driver, Christina Fate, in the hunt for the championship with just two races to go.
