The expert spoke about the signs of overheating of the car in the heat

Signs that the car is experiencing problems due to the heat may include overheating of the engine, constant operation of the cooling fan and a decrease in the efficiency of the air conditioner. This was stated by Ashot Yeritsyan, Executive Director of the Department for Work with Partners of SberbankГазете.Ru ".

"You should especially carefully monitor the engine temperature in traffic jams and when the air conditioner is on. The decrease in the efficiency of the air conditioner, unstable engine operation and the appearance of warning signals on the dashboard should be alerted," Yeritsyan said.

The expert explained that high temperatures increase the load on the main systems of the car: the engine heats up more, and technical fluids lose their properties faster. In summer, the most common problems are with cooling, air conditioning, battery, and tires.

According to Yeritsyan, a dirty radiator or a faulty fan may not appear for a long time, but in hot weather it can lead to engine overheating. He recommended checking the cooling system, the level of liquids, the condition of the radiator and air conditioner in advance.

"Preventive maintenance in the summer is much cheaper than repairing an engine after severe overheating," Yeritsyan concluded.
