Cooling faults should be diagnosed quickly because overheating can turn a small leak into major engine damage. We inspect the system for pressure loss, circulation faults and cooling-fan operation.

Technical note

A cooling-system pressure test is useful for external leaks, while thermostat, fan and circulation faults may need temperature and scan-data checks.

Common reasons to book

  • Coolant level dropping
  • Overheating
  • Temperature fluctuating
  • Coolant smell or staining
  • Cooling fans not operating
  • Heater performance changes

What we can assess

  • Cooling-system pressure test where appropriate
  • Radiator and hose inspection
  • Water pump and thermostat checks
  • Fan operation test
  • Coolant condition assessment
  • Leak-source confirmation
