Bro'...

where did you get the idea that my posting is merely chit-chat ? Since Xiong ask how to overcome overheat, i merely asked him to get his mech to do a pressure check on his radiator, which might be the cause of coolent leak which will also result in overheat problem mah.

 

Like that you also consider chit-chat ???

Hi Xiong5182,

 

I used to drive a charade too. Have encounter similar problem as u. To solve

the problem my mechnic do some tweak on the radiator fan. The fan normally kick in

when the car temp. reach certain height, however after the tweaking the fan is on the moment

the engine is started. However you will lose a bit of power.......

[Hoppe]

it's definitely either the fan or water "leakage".

Go check the fan. (Open up the bonnet, let the engine run till hot and rev the accelerate.. if I am correct, the fan should kick in , ie on and off depending on the temp). And investigate for leakages. Older cars (like my Swift) tends to have worn hoses. Very cheap to change.

oops...kenna complained liao. talk to you on fri meet-ups

[Lukie102]

i think it is not advisable to on the fan the moment the engine is started. it does not allow the engine to heat up to its temp to perform

I just bought a 92 charade.. would like to know where to get the spare parts. Checked at waterloo st. very exp. readiator rubber hose original cost ard $30 each... any good shop tat sell original and yet cheap? Thanks.

ok got to change if radiator is spoil... so about how much will it cost to change a radiator??? pls advise...

i changed my radiator for $100 bucks

[Mivec9]

radiator fan working and there's no leakage anywhere... wat else could have happen??

if the radiator fan working (properly i assume) and no leakage, then check temp sensor, temp sensor housing and radiator hoses
