Many people neglect to look at the temperature gauge, which indicates how hot or cold their engine is running. This is a critical feature of your vehicle because an overheating engine needs to be addressed right away. If you don't bring your Chevrolet to our service department in Lincoln as soon as you notice the problem, you could end up dealing with some costly repairs and permanent damage. An engine that's overheating likely has one of the following issues going on. These are the first things that our technicians will take a look at during a service appointment.
You might have a leak in your cooling system that is resulting in low levels of coolant. We always check all your fluid levels when you come in for a routine service appointment, but this can happen at any time if you develop a hole or crack in the system. You may start to see fluid accumulating under your vehicle, but the leak may be slow enough that you don't notice.
You need your internal water pump to function properly to have coolant pumping through your engine properly. You'll lose pressure in your water pump if there's damage that needs to be taken care of.
Your radiator works closely with a series of fans to cool down the coolant's temperature that is being heated up by your engine while running. If you're having an issue with your fan or radiator components, this will result in higher than normal temperatures.
The thermostat valve inside your engine will monitor the coolant fluid running into your radiator to keep your engine cool. It's common for a thermostat valve to get stuck in the open or closed position, which results in incorrect levels of coolant in the engine.
It's not uncommon for belts and hoses to need repair or complete replacement. After all, these are thin pieces of material that see a lot of wear and tear. If you need service in this area, you'll see overheating occur.
We encourage you to have one of our technicians inspect your vehicle if you are experiencing high temperatures in your engine. You can contact us today for a convenient appointment day and time.
