cudnt have been the fan, the car was in motion. might have been the water level

faulty thermostats can raise water temps in seconds

 

[RERider]

make the thermostats a couple of hole....

 

[malimsiao]

since u are checking ur thermostats, it is recommended to flush ur radiator amd together with some modding for example change your radiator to aluminum/copper 2-3 core (if u are stil using the stock radiator) to increase reliability. my 2 cent

mine has a more funny problem. I am not sure whether it is the meter problem or sensor problem. When i start my car after 5 seconds the water meter warning comes out with that sound. Water temp on both my defi and stock meter appears to be normal even after driving. So now need to check whether is the meter problem or sensor. Am i right sifus? i am not sure what else to do already

low water level

 

[underslyder]

water level perfect. Based on your experience Rerider is there other things that can trigger a warning light and sound but the water temp is normal? even during traffic jam it is normal but sound still there.

i guessing the std meter is fecked up, since the other meters are showing good reading. please clarify by installing another std meter and report back

 

[underslyder]

well bro , changed to another meter still got sound, is it the sensor then? which sensor is that?

 

[xtremeleo]

okie, what sound eh? anyway, sounds like the sensor is fecked. shud be easy to find and replace tu
