What's included
An overheating engine is a countdown. Every minute the gauge sits in the red, the head gasket and cylinder head get closer to failure. We pressure-test the cooling system, find the leak or the failed part — thermostat, radiator, hose, fan, water pump, cap — and fix it where the car sits so you're not driving it hot to a shop.
- Pressure-test the system and inspect for leaks
- Check thermostat operation and fan function
- Replace the failed component — hose, thermostat, radiator, fan, cap, or pump
- Flush contaminated coolant and refill with the correct type
- Bleed air, run to temperature, and verify the fan cycles
Signs it's time
- Temperature gauge climbing or warning light
- Sweet smell or steam from under the hood
- Coolant puddle under the car
- Heater blows cold while the engine runs hot
- Coolant reservoir is empty or overflowing
