Saxo overheating
 

saxo seams to be over heating fan keeps kicking in and water is boiling out after about 20 mins of driving took thermostat at checked that and thats fine i left it out today took it for another spin and its still overheating i am having the water pump changed tomorrow does anyone know if there would be anything else i can check ?

my overheating was HG :sad:

Is the coolant mixture correct? Also there may be an air blockage in the system; is it bled correctly?

what is HG

headgasket,
we tried 3 different rads as thought they may be leaking as it was loosing water, tried different fans, put a different stat on, etc
i had white smoke and was overfueling badly, other people say to look for gunk in the oil cap but i didnt have any of that,

check for all air locks in the system could be because its not bled through properly.... as for ur headgasket it depends where it goes as to where ull get the mayonaise gunk... oil ways or water ways .. check the end of ur dipstick for gunk.... it sounds like u may have stuffed ur hg and if its a highmilage unit and uve ragged it ull do what my mate dun to his rallye and crack the head .. but start simple first.

ok guys i thought id up date you on how the situation went i took it down to my local garge and this was the out come .. they took bits and boobs off to get to the water pump took the water pump out and fully checked that and cam to the conclustion it was good as new ! so then the guy said he thought the only other thing it could be was the rad. so he took the hoes off and checked for blockages or any leaks he bled the rad. twice and still couldent find what was the problem then after a few mins of headscratching he put the water pump back in and all the pipes and we later found out that it was just the cap onto of the rad as the system is ment to be presurerised and the seal in the cap had gone so therefore there was no pressure !!!! this was a complete piss take as i had to pay for the labour of the work he had done and then had to pay 5.55 for a cap !! LOL so if anyone was this little whining noise when you change gear etc please check the cap !!!!
