Why is your temperature sensor going hot then cold?

your thermostat could be wearing out. what happens then is that it wont open until the engine gets abnormally hot, then as the coolant flows through the engine, it gets cooler, and so it closes, then once it gets real hot again, it opens. so on and so forth. steinbacher682@hotmail.com

Engine hot cooling not hot?

Engine is Hot, Coolant is not HOThere engine is hot means above the engine operating temperature, Coolant is not hot means coolant in the radiator is not hot and the coolant is below or withing the operating temperature.i think there is no water blow out from the radiator cap if you have this problem then the following will not apply to your case.* water is not circulating through the radiator, either half of the pumped water is circulating through the radiator or another half circulates through the engine block because of thermostat. so please check the engine thermostat for proper function.


Why is the overflow bottle boiling hot with water and yet the car is not overheating?

Why is coolant not returning to the engine as the engine cools?

i would say if the coolant is getting hot in the engine but not flowing threw the radiator to cool the engine down the thermostat is stuck closed and not letting the fluid pass OR Ive also heard that if a air bubble gets caught in there it wont feel the hot fluid and open to flow the coolant threw the engine im pretty sure in the z31 the thermostat is behind the pulley that goes to the a/c pump you have to take that off and you will see were it goes in the engine i would change that out and see if that fixes it
