Cooling System Repair

Overheating: If your engine temperature gauge spikes into the red zone or if you see steam coming from under the hood, it's a clear sign of overheating, which can be caused by cooling system failures.

Leaking Coolant: Check under your vehicle for any puddles or spots of coolant. Coolant can be green, pink, or orange depending on the type used in your vehicle. Leaking coolant can indicate a problem with hoses, radiator, water pump, or other components.

Low Coolant Levels: If you find yourself needing to frequently top up your coolant reservoir, it could be a sign of a leak in the cooling system.

Coolant Smell Inside the Car: If you notice a sweet smell inside the cabin, it could mean that coolant is leaking into the heating system. This could be due to a leaking heater core.

Visible Damage to Hoses or Belts: Check for any visible signs of damage such as cracks, bulges, or leaks in the hoses connected to the radiator or the belts driving the water pump. Damaged hoses or belts can lead to cooling system failures.

Engine Misfires or Stalling: In severe cases of overheating, your engine may start misfiring or even stall altogether. This is a serious issue that requires immediate attention.

Discolored Coolant: If the coolant in your reservoir appears rusty or discolored, it may be contaminated and need to be flushed and replaced.

Rapid Fluctuations in Temperature: If your engine temperature gauge is constantly fluctuating between hot and cold, it could indicate a problem with the thermostat or another component of the cooling system.
