dnt wry then......u can scan it for coolant temperature otherwise check expansion tank for steam boilover etc....otherwise engines normally operate at such temp

Yeah my mechanic is also say that "Japani gariyon me fan auto on & off hota hai to isliye heat up hori hai pareshani ki bat ni"

its not with Japanese cars.....every watercooled engine works on its optimum temperature and their fan is automatic by some way or other except u r working on Suzuki carry or bedfords in Pakistan until these mechanics circumcise the car and and make fan direct and remove thermostat valve.....so dnt ever remove thermostat valve and make fan direct.

If you feel that the car is heating up then check the flow of water in the radiator. It might be that the water pump blades have corroded and flow of water is less. This can cause the engine to operate at higher temperature than normal. If water is not flowing then it can be that either the water pump has failed or the thermostat valve is stuck in closed position. First check the valve. You will have to troubleshoot to get to the exact fault. Hope this helps.

I just bought boon 2007 regd 2012. Been a day. I am driving it with Ac on since then. After 7km or more, the engine becomes excessively hot, HF sign doesnt show. Even the bonnet seems to be hot. What steps you took to resolve this issue? Will removing thermostat valve and switching the fan to manual help? I got the radiator serviced with coolant but I am still facing this issue. Please help.

whats ur problem then ? Car is working normally at its ambient operating temperature. U need not to worry until ur car shows red overheat light in the odo.
Dont use plain water, use any reputable coolant in ur radiator. (I am using ZIC coolant in my vitz & quite satisfied)
And for Gods sake, dont do any jugaar to direct the fan or to remove thermostate valve, these things are their in the engine for some purpose.
Just relax !

Deae bro.

I just noticed that its getting really hot even after driving for 2-3 kms. Never checked without ac till now. Besides, after driving 3-4 km, I turned off the engine and when I start the switch the HF light shows but just after starting the self, the hf light goes off. It is worrying me. Any good mechanics in Karachi for passo/boon? I looked into engine oil by removing the cap and I noticed white smoke coming. But when I start the car, silencer drops water.

noumanbanka (noumanbanka) 2017-05-24 13:22:53 +0500 #15

Is the smoke coming out because of over heating or is it the ring piston?

humayun.chughtai.7 (Humayun Azhar Chughtai) 2017-05-24 15:28:00 +0500 #16

White smoke is normal after removing oil cap, nothing to worry about.
And red overheat light glows on ignition just to ensure that it is working properly. Just like ABS or Check engine light, when you turn ON the ignition, these lights glows but when u start the engine, they goes off.
U seems like a hell of wehmi person to me ! kindly dont mess with ur car dear.

Precautions are better than getting screwed bro. Besides, I never have had a japenese car. I just bought it and the engine seems too much hot just after driving 7-8 km. Made the deal last week for this car, checked oil through gauge and it was perfect. Took delivery 2 days ago, checked oil in gauge and it was low. So, is it consuming the oil? I filled it up anyway. Will drive further and see if it still consumes the oil. If it does, I reckon ring pistons are screwed up and maybe a reason for over heat.

If your car doesn't have gauge in your car speedometer you can simply buy wifi or Bluetooth obd2 connecter and connect with your mobile monitor the temperature.

i reckon you did not check the oil immediately after driving the car. Please ensure that the oil is checked after the vehicle has been parked for an extended period of time.

mazzazeem (mazzazeem) 2017-05-25 10:05:21 +0500 #20

i agree with Hamza always check engine oil when car is park about 20-30 mins on parking Coz other wise you will never get the Correct Reading Oil goes up in to the Head when you Start the car on parking mode oil is down to the base so you could get better Reading
