Well the other night after work the add coolant light came on when i started the car up so i have someone drop off some coolant i add coolant and the light is still on the annoying buzzing too....welll anywayz i make it to the light before my house and notice steam or smoke or some sort of thick air mixture coming from beneath my car. LIke around the passenger area anyways i need the diagnosis didn't see any threads that look similiar to the problem im having need help people...THANKS

 

oh yeh the thermostat the temperature rose so i don't know whats up with that..just another little input

 

The temp needle does not move untill "after" the car has allready reached overheat temperatures.

Have it towed to a race shop. Have them pressure check the radiator and look for other problems.

If you can't get it towed, get a bottle of stop leak and a bottle of watter weter or pruple ice and pull over instantly when the needle moves. Drive with the heater on and leave on when pulled over.

 

get an aftermarket temp guage immediatelly

i lost two motors due to heat...one was a minor overheat during an evening cruise...pulled over...toast

i wasnt even boosting

dont drive it AT ALL.

go racer knows what he is talking about..listen to him

but expect the stop leak to clog yer radiator a bit which will cause it to operate at higher temps laters

 

Damn............that sucks!!!

 

your water pump may be going bad. check for a sign of leakage from the weephole on the underside of it. also check the seal on you radiator cap. i just had to replace both recently for the same problem.

 

Damn yall make it sound all serious the guy did too..lol oh well........
