Re: My Overheating Issues

3/4 temp definitely means that something is wrong. In Pittsburgh, we've been seeing weather in the upper 90s, even over 100 in a few areas. I've also been in a lot of standstill traffic during this weather. The highest I've seen my temp gauge go is exactly to 1/2. In fact, for the most part while I'm idling in traffic, that's where it stays. When I'm moving 30+mph, even in the hot weather, it stays exactly half way between the 1/4 and 1/2 lines.

Have you checked to see if your cooling fans are coming on? How about your transmission? Any problems there? Also, how old is your coolant? Dexcool?
