Three days in a row now, Ive driven my 2.5km to work, on a 24 degree day(not too hot at all), and my temp gauge is going crazy. Usually she sit on under half on a drive to work, however lately shes been crawling up to above half with digital temp reading 110 degrees. I popped the bonnet this morning after the drive to work and there was smoke (or steam) coming from the top radiator hose near the radiator, and making a hissing sound , highly unusal of me commy to behave this way.
Ive flushed the coolant once, put through some stop leak a couple of months ago, got a new radiator cap, a new thermostat. However im putting only premixed coolant into her instead of a mix of water and alrdymixed coolant, as i learnt coolant alrdy had water mixed in it (i doubt this is the issue though)..
I havent bled the system yet however, would this be the issue?
