Why Is My Temperature Dial Gradually Going Up?

What the customer reported

The vehicle owner noticed the temperature dial gradually increasing, despite regularly topping off the coolant. There was a burning smell, but no visible smoke or sudden temperature spikes while driving.

What we found and did

The technician found that the coolant system required a complete flush and identified an oil leak at the engine timing cover gasket. The team performed a BG complete coolant system flush to withdraw and replace all fluids, ensuring the system was clean and refilled with new coolant. They also replaced the engine timing cover gasket to address the oil leak, ensuring proper sealing and operation.

Result

After the repairs, the vehicle's temperature returned to normal, and the burning smell was resolved.

Pro Tip

If your temperature gauge starts climbing, it might be time for a coolant system flush. Ignoring it can lead to overheating and costly repairs. A flush every 30,000 miles can prevent this.

What Caused the Fluid Spray Under My Hood?

What the customer reported

The vehicle was experiencing fluid spraying onto the hood and covering components under the hood, leading to overheating and low power mode.

What we found and did

The technician found that the coolant system was acidic, which can damage the water pump, radiator, and thermostat. The technician performed a complete coolant system flush using a BG machine to remove and flush out all fluids from the engine and radiator. They replaced the radiator hose, engine coolant thermostat housing, and drive belt, ensuring the system was refreshed with new fluid.

Result

After the service, the vehicle ran smoothly without overheating or fluid spraying issues.

Pro Tip

If you notice fluid spraying under your hood, it could indicate a serious coolant system issue. Addressing it early with a coolant flush can prevent damage to vital components like the radiator and water pump.

FAQ

Coolant Flush in Haines City: questions answered

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Haines City.

Will a flush fix my overheating?

Almost never, and we will tell you that before you spend the money. When a vehicle overheats we pressure test the system, check the thermostat, water pump, fan operation, and radiator flow, and look for combustion gases in the coolant. A flush on top of a failing part just delays the real repair.

Can I just add coolant instead of having it flushed?

Adding coolant restores the level, it does not restore the additive package that has already been used up. It also skips the more important question, which is why the level went down in the first place. If a system is losing coolant, that is a leak to find.

Does the color tell me what type of coolant I have?

Not reliably. Different chemistries have been sold in the same colors and the same chemistry shows up in different colors depending on the brand. We go by what your manufacturer specifies for your vehicle rather than by what is in the bottle.

What if the wrong coolant is already in my system?

Bring it in and let us look. Sometimes the fix is a full flush and refill with the correct type, and sometimes the mixing has already caused deposits that need more attention than that. Either way you want to know before it plugs a heater core.

How often should coolant be changed?

Your owner's manual sets the interval for your vehicle, and the range between vehicles is wide enough that a shop quoting one number for everything is not paying attention. Florida heat and towing both work the coolant harder. Testing tells us where yours actually is between those intervals.
