Off work at 1 pm, had a destination but needed to stop at home to grab an item. Outside temp 105, pulled in garage, left truck running, in house about maybe 10 minutes if that. Returned to truck, have a temp gauge on phone via OBDII port, gauge indicating 205 ish, maybe a little higher. Drove...
I worked in a radiator shop building and replacing them, an extra row and high fin count will make an engine cooler, not the thermostat. This is back in the days of copper and brass but theory is the same
Was there a lot of debris? I have an appointment for the 29th to have it looked at. Glad I do have an extended warranty, I cannot imagine it not being covered, I had a higher end warranty for 125K miles. Hope yours stops overheating..
I know how the gauge works, half way is normal operating temperature. Yours should not be overheating at all, I have never towed with mine but have been in some extreme temps and never an issue. Mine has lately had an issue maintaining normal temp. I watch my gauge and in 5 years of driving its...
Mine sits just an RCH under half, ive watched that gauge on mountain roads at over 8K in elevation or going through Needles AZ at an outside temp of 112 and it will barely move, the only move I have ever noticed is the Arizona one where it moved just a another colored hair closer to the half way...
No lights and no DTC recorded. Of course I am getting up in age I use to work building and pulling radiators of the old copper and brass design and am a little familiar with the cooling system. I do suspect there are differences these days though but I think a thermostat is still a thermostat...
I’m referring to coolant temp! I have no other temp gauges on the dash! I am now using a gauge on a program on my phone through a plug in on the OBD2 port. According to my phone gauge it’s not even getting to operating temp! Driving on the freeway this morning it took miles to even get close to...
I have recently noticed during driving that my temp gauge would start drop, then would return to its normal position. I'm a gauge watcher, an old habit from less reliable older cars. I thought I had a faulty gauge. Plugged in my OBD Fusion into the port and used my iPhone for a temp gauge. It's...
I’ve noticed the same on mine, 19 XLT, I figured it was trapped air, but other than the excessive pedal travel it stops fine. I’ve just put up with it, little annoying for sure.
