| Overheating: Tips and Tricks |
|---|
| If your engine is starting to overheat, switch the air conditioner OFF and run the heater on full blast. That helps draw heat away from the engine. If the temperature still climbs, pull over and stop the car. This is only a temporary measure, so bring your vehicle to our shop and let us correct the underlying problem for good. |
| You can head off overheating by easing the load on your engine. On a long climb, shut off the air conditioner or drop into a lower gear so you can make it up the hill without putting extra strain on the engine. |
