I suspect that you have a blown head gasket letting coolant into one of the cylinders to cause the white smoke and the lowered coolant level results in over heating of the engine. overheating with white smoke indicates coolant in the combustion chamber 99% of the time this is caused by a leaking head gasket. dont keep driving till you get it repaired or you can crack the block, needing a new engime or warp the head needing new head. head gasket is least expensive to repair
Yes, an overheating engine can potentially lead to brake failure. When an engine overheats, it can affect various components of the vehicle, including the brake system. For instance, if the overheating causes brake fluid to boil, it may lead to brake fade or loss of braking power. Additionally, if the overheating impacts other systems like the transmission, it could indirectly affect braking performance.
If an engine was not assembled properly it could cause a low power complaint.If an engine was not assembled properly it could cause a low power complaint.
Common causes could be a power surge or overheating.
Yes,definitely.
As long as the engine is running you will have power assisted steering. With the engine not running you will not have power assist and it will be hard to turn but turn-able. If the engine is overheating it would be wise to pull over and park when safe to do so and shut off the engine before expensive damage is done to the engine.
A warning on the dic showing an engine power reduce, indicates that there is an electrical problem with the Chevy Malibu. These issues could be worn or damaged sensors, wiring issues, a weak battery, engine overheating or stored codes that could be causing the warning.
A blocked fuel filter could cause the engine to lose power on a 92 Honda Civic DX. Fuel injectors that need changing or cleaning could also be the cause.
check the exhaust system
This problem could be cause by too much tension on your engine. The power steering is linked in with the rest of your engine pulley's and if you are demanding a lot from your power steering system it's going to in turn demand more from your engine and typically at conventional turning speeds your engine won't have enough rpm's or compression to continue to supply that needed power to keep the engine cranking and your power steering to be driven hard.
Bad alternator
Electric currents flowing at higher rates than the material can withstand.
did you replace radiator hoses i have seen hoses collapse and cause overheating while driving and radiator could be clogged. also did you bleed your cooling system according to owners manual
