So couple of days ago it was hotter than hell in SoCal.. i had my nephew in the car with me and he kept complaining about how hot it was so i just turned on the blower just so he would shut up... ok anyway i got out of the car for about 15-20 minutes and left it running with the blower on.. when i came back to the car the Temp gauge was one line past 12 o clock almost in the red area. i turned the car off right away.. 20 minutes later i started it up and it moved back a little once i started to drive it went back to 12 o clock and the check coolant light came on. after letting the engine cool down i added more coolant not much at all maybe half a cup.
Today i noticed that the Temp gauge kept creeping back and forth past 12 o clock and a little more closer to red than NORMAL i kept the heat on and that kept it under control so i could make it home. and again the coolant light came on but there was enough coolant in the tank......? so what the heck is going on?? i did a little research and it was saying it could be my thermostat is bad?? or maybe my coolant isn't feeding right (i think if that was the case it would be red hot?)
Anyway I'm going to take a look in the morning...
Any input would be great!! thanks guys!
--- the heat does work. so i don't think it needs bleeding.. but idk haha
