Suzuki Alto 660cc overheated

[yasin.ahmed01]

Assslam o Alaikum. Guys mere pas Alto latest model hai 660cc wala. Aj aik masla hogya hai. Me aik jaga se wapas arha tha that is approximately 35km away from my home. Mene subah me radiator check kara tha aur mene cap shayad loose band kara. Wapas aty hue wo cap kaheen gira aur gari ne achanak se overheat sign diya. Jiske bad mene gari roki and opened hood. Mene dekha k pani sara boil ho k nikal chuka tha. Aur bhaap ur rhi thi. After two minutes with engine start I filled water and cooled engine down. Uske bad me gaya qareeb hi spare part market me on rickshaw aur cap khareeda and then cap laga k ghar wapas aya. Uske bad gari ne as such koi issue to nhi kia like again overheating, sludge in oil gauge, knocking etc. Can you guys tell me that is it safe to go for 40km drive again I mean koi issue to nhi hua hoga engine me like head seal blow. Alto latest ka sab se bara drawback temperature gauge na hona hai. Achanak se bs overheat ka sign deti hai. Lekin mene within two minutes hi roadside pe rok di aur AC bhi band krdi. Aur dusri bat ye puchni thi ke genuine radiator cap 2200 ka mil rha hai. Is it good idea to buy ya me local market wale se kam chalaun?

visit a workshop get it compression tested.
If the radiator has creamy thick sludge am sorry for your loss. The head gaskit has gone bad an need new replacement.

Radiator is clean also I find no difference in drive. After overheating I've driven it 10-15 km whole drive was smooth. Again checked radiator. It was clean.

Cap khul kar coolant kabi check na krein. Just see the bottle level. 2 saal say wagon R chala raha aj tek mein cap open nai ki aur bottle se dekta lvl(dont open it also) aur aj tek same lvl coolant ka

[vtecyo]

get original cap as it will have good fitting and get new coolant in it after draining water.

Get the head inspected, to rule out any possibity. 2200 for radiator cap sounds like on the higher side. Is 3s offering you this rate?

[syedzain265]

Brother aap 4 5 days ki baat lar rahe 4 5 months me bh8 ni hoga kam.Also khaali reservoir ko topup karba h9ta he brother.Ab coolant laazmi dalwaayen paani 0e na chalaye ga plz.Also radiator cap bhi research karke install karwayen w8th the same pressure rating

[yasin.ahmed01]

thank you for guidance guys. Actually new driver hun, driving to seekhli lekin kisi ne ye baten batai nhi
Well gonna get its head inspected ASAP. Need your prayers tho

[yasin.ahmed01]

Btw guys can you tell me at exactly what temperature does alto 660cc turns on overheat light on dashboard. Is it safe zone? Or temperature gets too out of control?
P.S it has no temperature gauge

[Hassan1991]

as soon as temperature goes 1 celsius above optimum temperature. Usually radiator fan kicks in just before that point. It's a warning sign If with working radiator fan temperature still goes up.

[yasin.ahmed01]

I see... 1C above is not really to be worried about that must be in safe zone. That means warning mechanism still saves from big loss. Also I have checked radiator, reservoir and oil gauge for sludge. Alhamdullilah it was clean after 10km drive. Also there is no smoke from exhaust, start and pick up power is ok. I don't feel any difference like misfires etc

[Hassan1991]

10km is very low to assume something.
But hopefully everything will be fine insha ALLAH.

[nfssaad]

just replace all the coolant with suzuki genuine. replace cap with new part from suzuki. and drive.

[syedzain265]

No problem brother Were here to help and most hopefully kuch ni hoa hoga new head he.
