I have a Vauxhall Movano with 50,000 miles on the clock. Lately, I've noticed that the engine has been overheating while driving, especially during long distances. The warning light comes on and the temperature gauge shoots up. What could be the possible causes and how can I fix this?
ReplyHi John, overheating can be caused by several factors such as low coolant levels, a faulty thermostat, a clogged radiator, or a failing water pump. I would recommend checking your coolant levels and make sure they are topped up. Also, have your thermostat and radiator checked for any issues.
Hi John, another common issue with Vauxhall Movano engines overheating is a faulty head gasket. This can cause coolant to leak into the engine, leading to the engine overheating. I suggest having a mechanic perform a compression test to check for any issues with the head gasket.
Hi John, one thing you can do to help prevent engine overheating is to regularly clean or replace your air filter. A dirty air filter can restrict airflow to the engine, causing it to work harder and overheat. Try cleaning or replacing your air filter and see if that helps with the issue.
