Engine running hot

Hello,

This could be a problem with your vehicle's thermostat being stuck closed. Your vehicle has a thermostat that stops the coolant from circulating until it reaches a certain temperature before opening and allowing the coolant to circulate across the radiator and cool. This is done so your vehicle has a heater and defroster. When your thermostat, through normal wear and tear, starts to stick, sometimes it will get stuck in the closed position and not allow your vehicle's coolant to circulate at all, causing your vehicle to overheat. Here is a link for you to go to:

In the diagrams down below I have also included the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part number for your vehicle's thermostat as well as the directions for the removal and installation of the thermostat. Please go through these guides and get back to us with how everything turns out, or what you are able to find out.

Thanks,
