The engine of a 1995 Astra 180i automatic can overheat at low speeds due to several factors, including insufficient coolant levels, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a failing water pump that impedes proper coolant circulation. Additionally, a clogged radiator or a malfunctioning cooling fan can hinder heat dissipation, exacerbating overheating issues. Poor airflow around the engine, especially in stop-and-go traffic, can also contribute to elevated temperatures. Regular maintenance and checks of the cooling system are essential to prevent overheating.
Was it summer when it happened?If it was,then that must be the reason.
Not enough oil or a spanner in the works.
Need to know the year and make, It would help answer.
Yes they did. Some with automatic and 4-speeds.
That usually means the engine is lean. Could be a vacuum leak.
Some vehicles have higher RPM's (Rotations per minutes) causing them to run at higher temperatures at low speeds. In stop and go situations, you are using low gears at low speeds, causing the engine to work harder. These types of vehicles would be better for high speed commuting where stopping and going frequently is not a problem.
The Toyota Yaris 2007 has 106 horsepower. It gets its horsepower from its 1.5 liter engine. The 1.5 l engine has five speeds with automatic or manual transmission.
The most likely causes for the S10 Blazer to overheat at highway speeds but not in the city are a failing radiator fan clutch, a clogged radiator, or a failing water pump. At highway speeds, the engine is working harder and generating more heat, which could overwhelm a system that is not functioning properly. It's recommended to have the cooling system checked by a mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.
False
A howl in an automatic transmission between speeds of 60 kph and 80 kph could signal a problem with the fan belt. Another cause could be an issue with the torque converter.

This would cause serious engine damage, as the engine speed ( rpm) would be too high, and the engine would overheat badly. The engine parts would be seriously overheated and the engine bearings and seals would probably begin to leak oil from over pressure. -it would probably burn out your rear seal and blow oil everywhere but other then that it shouldn't be to bad, maybe Actually, the worst that happened is you used too much fuel. Engine overheating doesn't occur in any particular gear unless there's a problem to begin with. High RPM's for short periods aren't harmful. After all, you increase your engine speed when your car goes into passing gear, there's no harm done to your auto. It could also overheat your transmission if it is an automatic trans. NOT good. If it is a 3-speed automatic, being in 2nd gear would not be as bad as if it were a 4-speed automatic though. Because then the RPM's would be higher than on a 3-speed, creating even MORE heat.
