Hi guys,
I have recently been having the problem of the engine overheating while stopped at the lights. Before this happened the temperature gauge wouldn't get above half when at the lights and now it gets to quite dangerous levels where the temperature warning light is going off.
I had not done anything to the car before this started happening (Except for fiddling with power windows). Anyhow, what I have done is top up the engine oil as I noticed that it was getting a little low (just above the fill line) and there was no difference. I got told to check to see if the radiator cooling fan was working and that works.
Any help on this would be great guys, as I don't want to take it to a mechanic and pay them hundres just to tell me what the problem is
Anyway,
Thanks guys
