Hi lads,
Well usually when driving hard or just cruising my heat gauge is always exactly midway or just in or around, but then tonight just around 10pm (after having a fair rip ) i pulled back onto my road and noticed the heat gauge was nearly at the peak!! Was just a few lines short of hitting max! Its never happened before and im sure of that! I quickly turned on the heat and blew in all the heat into the car! Put it to level 4.
Then slowly drove down the road and the gauge went slowly back to halfway. Continued driving for a small bit and it was fine then hit vtec 2nd- 3rd gear and it went back up so i did the same turned on fan and it went back down.
I had it sitting in my drive and it went back up and then back down again!
Anyone give me any advice to why this might be happening? I could see that the overflow was above minimum. Can it damage the car driving at these temps? All help appreciated in advance!
