You need to get hold of a sniff tester.Its a glass tube that you put special fluid in ,then you remove your header tank cap (when you have run your engine for a bit ) then put the tube in the tank press the ball a few times and if the fluid changer's colour then this will tell you if your head gasket has gone ,(because it detects carbon from the fuel )which is common for the rover v8's

Why would the radiator fan continue to run after the engine stops after the thermostat was replaced on a 2002 Nissan Altima?

Ingeneral, the fan will run only if the temperature of the radiator is above the normal range. If the fan is running, then the radiator must be over temp unless the radiator fan thermostat or it's relay is defective. If the radiator truly is over temp then you have a larger over-heating problem You state the thermostat was replaced. if you replaced the fan thermostat then either the radiator really is over temp and it is doing what it should, or there is a problem with the thermostat-fan relay or switch. If you replaced the engine thermostat that controls the flow of coolent between the engine and the radiator, then that probably wasn't your problem and you should look elsewhere for an overheating cause. I would start by determining if the engine actually is overheating or not. If it is, I would look for coolent system problems like the engine thermostat (if you didn't replace it already), water pump, leaks, scale build up in the radiator, or blockages in the system. If the engine isn't overheating then I would consentrate on the fan, fan thermostat and relays.


What could be causing a car to overheat when driving but not while sitting idle The radiator cap and thermostat have all been replaced and you have no known system leaks But you still have a problem?

Clogged radiator, bad water pump, defective fan or fan thermal relay.


How do you bleed BMW 318i cooling system?

The cooling system of a BMW 318i is bled by opening the radiator cap and squeezing the upper radiator hose. This purges air from the system which can then be replaced with more coolant.

No, just replace the radiator. The other one (in the front) is the condenser for the a/c system.


If the low coolant light is on when you just replaced the radiator in a 1994 Pontiac Grand Am with a sealed radiator system what could be the problem?

There is a high probability that the system needs to be bled. As in bleed the air from the system. Just filling the system is not enough. You need to warm the engine to get the water flowing, then switch off and bleed the air out. Yes there is always some air and it gravitates to the highest point of the cooling system. I hope this helps
