So the past couple days I’ve been having some overheating issues.

Nothing to the point where it was approaching the big “H”.

So yeah, today I was driving to work, and all of the sudden it shoots up pretty high…

turn the heat on, warm for a minute… then cold

shiet

starts floating dangerously to “H”

turn the car off, coast, turn back on, lather, rinse, repeat.

Got to work

yay

puff of steam

yay

went downstairs like 10 minutes ago

Small puddle of coolant under the car.

yay

T stat time baby

☹

well since you have both a FMIC and AC in front of your radiator, I’m assuming it’s not getting enough cool air. Maybe you want to get a good radiator. How many fans are you running, and are they always on???

I would say yur low on coolant… but I remember you telling me you filled it not too long ago…

Its either, low on coolant, tstat, not enough radiator, water pump… in order of least to most severe.
