Reasons Behind Frequent Overheating of Cars
2
Whenever you are negligent in maintaining your
car, then you are inviting all sorts of issues
for your car.
3
Moreover, when the parts begin to fail, they give
out symptoms which will alert you about the
impending trouble.
4
One such symptom which you might have experienced
is your car heating up abnormally and there could
be several reasons behind the issue.
5
Here are the reasons behind the frequent
overheating of cars.
6
Low coolant
7
One of the most common reason behind your car
overheating is the presence of low coolant, or
the coolant might be absent.
8
The coolant absorbs the heat dissipated by the
engine and becomes hot itself and the heat is
transferred to the radiator where it comes in
contact with the cool air from the outside which
eventually cools the coolant.
9
This process continues till your car is running
and if there is not enough coolant to do the job,
then the heat will build up and the engine
overheats.
10
Electric cooling fan failure
11
Most of the cars are equipped with an electric
cooling fan to keep the engine cool and the fan
functions by drawing cooler air through the
radiator when the car is not running fast enough
to do the job naturally.
12
The best way to determine whether the electric
fan is working or not is by letting your car run
idle and keep an eye on the temperature gauge.
13
If you notice the temperature rising and coming
under the danger zone, then your electric fan is
not running, which causes the car to overheat.
14
Thermostat is shut
15
Whenever your car is overheating when running at
high speed, then it is a sign of a failed
thermostat and it is very hard to notice because
the engine stays cool at low speeds.
16
However, when you reach high speed, then your
engine requires a lot of coolant flowing through
to keep it cool.
17
In this type of situation if the thermostat
remains shut, then there wouldn't be enough flow
to keep the engine cool which leads to rising
temperature and overheating.
18
Conclusion
19
The above-mentioned factors are some of the
leading causes of your car getting overheated.
20
If you experience your car overheating, then
seek the assistance of an automotive technician
to fix the problem immediately.
