What else can I help you with?
Why would heater blow warm air while driving but cold air while idling and why would enigine temperature go up while idling and down when driving?
When a vehicle is idling, the engine may not produce enough heat to warm the coolant effectively, leading to cold air from the heater. In contrast, while driving, the engine works harder and generates more heat, allowing the heater to blow warm air. The engine temperature can rise while idling due to reduced airflow through the radiator and less coolant circulation, while driving increases airflow and coolant flow, helping to cool the engine.
What makes a ford focus sputter while driving in high heat conditions?
youre driving a ford!
Why would a 1998 Dodge Ram have low heat while idling yet full heat when driving?
AnswerYup, in most cases. Check the thermostat.
Why does car heat up when idling and cool down when moving?
It is more than likely a thermostat
What is making your ford ranger heat no leaks changed thermostat cleaned coolant system only heats while idling giving it gas cools it down?
sounds like a bad thermostat even though it is replaced
2001 Chevy cavalier no heat turns cold while driving idling its hot why?
I'd check the coolant level first, then the thermostat.
Why does the heat blow cold while idling and warm when driving?
Poor circulation probably due to a restricted (plugged up) heater core.
Overheats when driving not when idling also heat doesn't work when idling?
Your thermostat is stuck open. Buy a new one they are usually really cheap and you can usually repair it yourself. They are easy to get to even in compact engine space.
Why when idling does your Ford Contour 1997 heater not blow heat but when moving it does?
I own a 1997 Ford Contour and there was a recall a few years ago on the heater blower and resistor. Check out the recalls on the car.
Why does my 1995 impala SS run hotter when idling?
The vehicle does not have any airflow across either the engine or the radiator to cool things down like occurs when driving, if at an idle. This, coupled with a diminished flow of coolant through the engine at idle speed creates undissipated heat.
What part do you need I have very little heat while idling but nice warm heat while driving i have a BMW 525i car?
BMW have an auxilery water pump that circulate coolent into the heater core at low engine speeds check the operation of this pump and solinoids.
Why would your Uplander throw heat while driving and cold air when idling?
Poor circulation through the heater core. Probably a semi-plugged heater core or a faulty thermostat (assuming the coolant level is full).
