Frequently Asked Questions
Common causes include a low coolant level, a faulty thermostat, a leaking hose or a failing water pump. A blocked radiator can also prevent heat from being properly dissipated.
A cooling system is generally checked as part of routine servicing, though it's worth having it inspected sooner if you notice steam, a sweet smell or the temperature gauge running higher than usual. Catching issues early can prevent more serious engine damage.
Many radiator issues, such as small leaks, can be repaired without needing a full replacement. Whether a repair or replacement is the better option depends on the extent of the damage and the radiator's overall condition.
