Then feel hot. When i open the aircond, the tempature gauge go up suddenly... Frightened me!!! Then it drop back to normal 80 celcius... Anything done with that?

when was the last time you check your radiator water? every year have to flush it and put in fresh coolant and water.

I wanna thank b48753 for his patience and guidance in fixing my overheating waja.

Even though b48753 had work to do on Saturday, he spent the whole morning with me all the way to the afternoon about 3-4pm until my waja fixed. He even took the time to explain and educate me on a car's engine and everything related.

His friend's workshop and all the other guys working there were toiling so hard to get my car fixed, and all were friendly and well-mannered. (I even got 2 free gifts, lol)

Although money had to be spent, I'm relieved and happy that my temperature gauge isn't hitting the ceiling anymore, so far the temp is fine, and my aircon is cool as ever, stationary or moving.

Many many thanks again to my bro b48753, who went all out to help someone he barely knew.
Once I'm done saving money, we go fix my absorbers ya? who knows, maybe change air filter and 4-2-1 too? lol tongue.gif

It's my pleasure to help you, and also the others.

Just let me know if you're ready for other repairs, or even some 'engine tuning' brows.gif

i don't think can be remove as it has been ultrasonic welded. So, swapping is the only way.

First, welcome to the club.

Check your coolant, is it enough,leaking of radiator and ping or water pump. Malfunction cooling fan also could contribute to this problem.

Leaking on the radiator top cover, then malfunctioning radiator fan, also corroded thermostat. Termostat changed to Perdana V6 model.
